• Background• The matrix & mapped examples• Categorised support mechanisms• Next steps
Background - staff questions and aims
• Common questions– “Show me what’s possible”– “What do I need to do to make it work”?
• Aims– Highlight transferrable exemplars and approaches– Balance between ownership and simplicity;
• Somewhere between “unsupportive theoretical maps” and “restrictive… black boxes”
