Inspiration and practical help, in bite-size chunks for busy leaders!
On Saturday 5th December 09 from 10 am - 3.45pm @ Gilnahirk Presbyterian Church Urban Saints is running four sessions during our One-day Training Conferences…

Faith Development
In this session we will explore some of the latest research into how young people develop spiritually and how we can best nurture and encourage them in their faith journeys.

Effective Teaching
Looking at recent research from the teaching and learning professions, together with helpful advice from expert Christian practitioners, we will explore what a balanced, effective teaching programme should look like.

The Impact of Technology
An overview showing what we ought to know about the effect some of the latest technology is having on young people. There will also be an opportunity to learn about the huge range of useful web-based resources from Urban Saints.

Managing Discipline
For our final session we will divide you into teams for an interactive team challenge! Using video clips from school classrooms, problems to solve and down-to-earth advice from experienced school teachers and youth leaders we will help you learn how to manage young people more effectively and deal with behavioural problems with greater confidence.
