As always, we want this programme to be manageable for teachers and impactful, thoughtful, and enjoyable for all children. It is curriculum rich, promotes achievement and is based on evidence about effective social contact that reduces prejudice and supports
your EDI work.
The Linking Network works with children and young people to build relationships with people they might otherwise not meet – people of different ethnicities, religions, and backgrounds – through providing resources, teacher training and ongoing support.
We are delighted to be recruiting for our 2024-25 linking programmes.
Details are below.
Please do get in touch to discuss how your school can get involved.
Bradford Primary Schools Linking Programme 2024-2025
An opportunity for classes of Key Stage 2 children to form a link with another class in the district. Through the programme children explore identity and to connect with and learn from one another.

resources.
The programme has been running in the district for over 20 years and all Primary Schools are welcome to express an interest to join the programme.
