I work for the Leeds Youth Justice Service and I have created a series of fact sheets called ‘Conversation Starters’ to help other staff in the service with key information about religions, countries, cultures and languages. They are designed to be quick guides and allow staff to read up on various topics prior to meeting with / working with families and young people. The aim is to help with any misconceptions and to also know of any special etiquette, etc. that should be adhered to. Plus to help with topics of conversation! The countries series are also aimed to help staff understand reasons why families may choose to move over to England from their home countries. The current LANGUAGES sheets are: Arabic Persian Punjabi (this sheet) Swahili Urdu Though I will keep creating these as and when they are requested, so this list may not include all of them and it would be best to check my TES page as well! Please note - I have added the PDF and PowerPoint files. The documents contain some references to Leeds links which can easily be modified or removed. The Leeds YJS logo is also on the document so this can be replaced / removed. As well as selling each individually I will sell them all as a bundle at a discounted rate, once I have chance to upload them all!
