CBACS Foundation: Leadership
The director of CBACS Foundation, Dr Gloria Gordon, is committed to helping young people succeed in school and later life.
Dr Gordon is currently developing a framework for school and family
partnership to assist educators, teachers, parents and guardians in
solving some of the problems young British African-Caribbean’s face
whilst trying to enhance their education.
Dr Gloria Gordon, a human development professional and 2002 National
Teaching and Research Fellow, has developed her own learning and
teaching philosophy (Human Centred Unconditional Passionate Appreciation) to meet the
particular needs of a diverse and globalising world. In addition she
has developed the Formative Learning Centre (FLC) to complement the
more common informative education offered in schools, colleges and
universities.
Dr Gordon aims to be a catalysts for
transformational change amongst members of the British African
Caribbean community in achieving the goals of The Metanoia Project
2007-2034.
CBACS Foundation: Educational Activities - The Game of Life Series Our most recent Game of Life event was held on 26 September at London
South Bank University where we carried out a cultural web mapping
exercise of our current black culture and our aspirational culture.
This was a very fruitful exercise with great significance for achieving both short and long term goals of The Metanoia Project 2007-2034.
