2004/2005:
Schools have agreed to undertake SIGNAL as their social enterprise project.
SIGNAL was first delivered in July 2002 and may be viewed in the projects
area of the schools
interactive main site.
SIGNAL
works by engaging local communities and volunteers in delivering school
centered citizenship activity. By attaching National Curriculum lessons
through 'excellence
and enjoyment' i.e. music, art, dance, drama, sport and IT focused
activity and celebrating the children's work within this, social enterprise
outcomes may be realized. The SIGNAL process was initiated and developed
by John Patterson of Liverpool
Hope University College.
SIGNAL
may be delivered in a micro or macro manner i.e. a school or a cluster
of schools. The 04/05 Enterprise Schools will be delivering their social
enterprise through the medium of music - a music CD will be collated
to celebrate the children's work which will be sold for a profit. Profits
will be distributed across named local and international charities.

FEBRUARY
and March SIGNAL activity: The 04 05 schools will receive a citizenship
assembly by Bill Bygroves of Liverpool
Football Club. Bill will leave each school with a 'Truth For Youth'
message which will become the theme for two weeks of classroom based
educational excellence. This will include workshops by local SME's ,
Hope University College students, Community Police Officers, Dark Horse
Venture and Liverpool Exchange Rotary volunteers. This will culminate
in the generation of a song with each school supporting the citizenship
message. The songs will be collated on a CD for sale. Liverpool Exchange
Rotarians will oversee the distribution of all profits to four named
local and international charities. The children involved will come together
to celebrate their work on 10th March at the Liverpool Lighthouse. This
will include the playing of a key message for the children involved
from Sir Cliff Richard. This event will be filmed and will be screened
on the 'big screen' in Liverpool City Centre with the assistance of
BBC Radio Merseyside.
