how the work runs

notice design try embed.

however you come in, it runs the same way. four words, and you can hold a whole year against them.

  • notice
  • design
  • try
  • embed

the four steps

  1. notice

    find out what is actually happening for learners, not what the strategy says should be.

    this is where unbarrier.voice does its work.

  2. design

    build the change with your team, not for them. the people who have to run it on a tuesday are in the room when it is designed.

    otherwise it is your plan, not theirs.

  3. try

    model it in real classrooms, with real learners, while your staff watch.

    not a twilight. not a slide deck.

  4. embed

    make it hold after we have gone.

    that is the whole test, and it is the step most consultancy skips because it is the one you cannot invoice twice.

most inclusion work stops at try. embed is where you find out whether any of it worked.

one pathway, not three products.

a discovery day is notice, done properly. unbarrier.voice is what makes notice and embed measurable instead of felt. a partnership year is all four, three terms running — then notice again, and find out whether it did.

a discovery day
notice. one day in your setting, and a roadmap for what comes next. unbarrier.audit
a partnership year
the whole cycle, once a term, three terms. unbarrier.access
an inclusion strategy
the cycle on a single term, and a document that says how you will embed it. inclusion strategy
