Read what teachers have said about Skilled to go resources and workshops.
'I teach Skills for life numeracy.
The content of the material is relevant for every adult and knowledge gained through using the materials will make a positive impact.'
'Providing relevant, significant contexts for literacy and numeracy development is key;
Skilled to go does this to great and positive effect.'
'Examples seen at today's workshop could be used straight away with most learners but could also be easily adapted for all learners.
The materials fit well with my existing resources.'
'The training session was excellent, as was the resource material. It was nice to attend something where you came away feeling it had been worthwhile.
The material is very visual and set within everyday contexts that my students would come into contact with. The strength to me lies in being able to adapt them.'
'I found the STG workshop I attended incredibly useful.
We were given sample materials and taught how we could use and adapt them for our classes.
It's helpful for people who are new to using Skilled to go, or people who are already registered on the site and using materials in part.'
'I started using STG last year in my lessons.
It's really valuable for my work with young offenders and links well to this curriculum.
It gives my students valuable skills then they need to use in day to day life, so the response from students has been great.'
