We don't need no education....

So far: (We =PAH and Pupils and Volunteers)

1 – We  looked at Maslow’s pyramid of hierarchy as a foundation to human needs 

2 - We then looked at how this relates to school and education and what school provides or fails to provide in regard to basic human needs

3 - Built a Maslow’s triangle from timber with graphic illustrations and turned it into an interactive display for the public to fill in questionnaires about their school life

4 - Looked at the ages of school and researched some key facts of what policies etc were implemented in what years…also looked at fashion as ways of distinguishing decades for graphic representation and interactive display.

5 - Built 8 mini blackboards each representing a decade in education history.

6 - Decorated them with quotes and images 

7 - Created report cards for the general public to fill in about their school life.

8 - We also had 30 plus pupils create a portrait of themselves with a good and bad side of their experience of education

All the above were then put into an exhibition at the Cardiff Story Museum:

21 April til 22^nd May

All the above are the foundation phase into understanding the role and impact of education before launching into the interviews so that we can frame our questions well to get the best information for phase three.

In phase 02 the pupils will be trained in media and oral history  techniques and then interview older members of the community to gather local stories about time spent at school and how it is different from now.
