London Region Secretary John I’Anson 139 Amyand Park Road Twickenham. TW1 3HN 07880796174 Email: afPE London Region and The John Roan School, Royal Greenwich working together, are bringing you on Thursday 13th July 2017 From 9.30 – 4.00 The World Beyond Levels of Attainment “Standards Based Assessment for Mastery Learning in Physical Education” We are all now working in a post attainment levels era or are we? Come and look at the following: Why were levels removed? Why shouldn’t we reinvent our own levels? What are the different functions of and theory behind system measures, summative and formative assessment What is the difference between ‘judging’ activities and ‘judging’ learning, progress and standards in physical education? Why are ‘I can’ statements and use of the 9-1 grading systems to assess and track pupils’ progress in core physical education a waste of precious time? How do we achieve more progress, higher standards and more inclusive practice in physical education? How do we evidence progress in Physical Education? How do we reduce the administrative burden of assessment in physical education? What is a mastery curriculum, mastery teaching and learning and mastery assessment in physical education? What assessment practices does OfSTED look for? Costs which will include a copy of “A Guide to Assessing Without Levels” by Andrew Frapwell and published by afPE afPE School and individual Members £70.00 Non Members £150.00 All fees must be paid prior to the course See terms and conditions on last page

ADVOCACY The phenomenon of conflict induced IDPs and natural disasters are going to remain as ongoing challenges for Afghanistan for some years to come. In addition, the ongoing returnee crisis the nation is facing, will also have long lasting negative impact on the WASH services and infrastructures. The best ways to cope with such situations is to embed the resilience at planning and design stage of the development of social service infrastructures, e.g. installation of high yielding deep borehole and use of solar powered pumping systems with trained local community technicians to manage the facility including its operation and maintenance. Government agencies needs to be supported by development partners on Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) as integral part of the development agenda so that the agencies can deliver sustainable and resilient WASH infrastructures. Experience that estimated 50% of the returnees will settle with host communities who may have limited improved water sources (or even without any improved sources). Sharing limited resources is always a bone of contention as it not only increases chances of outbreak of waterborne diseases but also significantly fuels the tension in communities. While it is important for humanitarian partners to target both displaced and host equally based on the assessed needs, but this is not always easy due to sporadic presence of small number of IDPs /returnees in many host communities.
increased spring winds, resulting in increased dust storm activity. This increased dust storm activity, particularly in a region vital to US national security interests, has serious negative repercussions both on personnel and on equipment. Increased temperatures in general are hard on machinery, and may render installed cooling systems inadequate. Likewise, fatigue becomes a greater issue for the soldier as temperatures increase. Even things such as low observable materials are negatively impacted by the increased humidity, precipitation and airborne particulates that accompany climate change. Sensors, likewise, are impacted by climate change as increased temperatures, humidities and atmospheric particulates all impact performance and maximum sensor ranges. Increased sensor assets may be required to survey the given area over a given tome because of reduced sensor ranges or resolutions. Operational Tempo / DoD Wide Impacts In a climate changing world, US military operations will only increase. There will be greater demands placed on DoD to respond to climate change based humanitarian crises. Missions to foster regional stability will become needed even more as tensions rise in regions poorly equipped to cope with the stresses imposed by climate change. New missions will be introduced such as patrolling / protecting the arctic and its natural resources as sea ice extent continues to decline (see Figure 5). Figure 5. Arctic sea ice coverage now and future [6]. Arctic shipping and resource exploration and development will result in new missions for the DoD. Additionally, there will be additional demands on the DoD budget as the US shifts to (initially at least) more expensive alternative fuels. There will be the burden of external (political or finacial) pressure on the DoD to reduce the size of its carbon footprint. While efforts such as efficiency initiatives, or installation of alternative energy productions sites are laudable, they detract from the primary DoD mission. Finally, climate change may force the early retirement of platforms or systems incapable of operation in a changing climate or too dependent on traditional fuels. This will all come at a time where there will be increased demands on the federal budget. The federal budget, already in record deficit territory will be tapped for purposes to deal with climate change. Natural disasters at home, such as severe hurricane landfalls, or severe drought in the continental south west, driven by climate change, will require federal dollars for recovery and / or mitigation.

The Africa Program will have sector delivery strategies. These strategies will be developed for the mining, food security and maternal and child health sector programs and will: define how Australia will provide aid in Africa in particular sectors over a period of four to five years communicate Australia’s intent in these sectors to partners in Africa provide engagement strategies for each partner establish performance measures for each program. The Africa Program will improve monitoring and evaluation. The Africa Program will deliver on the Australian Government’s commitment to improve measurement of aid results and the way results are used to improve program management. To make the transition to results-based management, the Africa Program will: undertake a stocktake of its monitoring and evaluation systems to assess the program’s alignment with Comprehensive Aid Policy Framework objectives, the appropriateness of AusAID and partner indicators, use of performance information, resourcing and staff monitoring and evaluation capacity. The stocktake will inform priorities for strengthening monitoring and evaluation in 2013 develop performance assessment frameworks for each major sector program. Each framework will include a limited set of simple and measurable indicators to determine if the program is delivering expected results while avoiding excessive reporting requirements for implementing partners undertake focused reviews of the following activities: Australia Africa Community Engagement Scheme: review of the partner non-government organisation’s monitoring and evaluation systems to identify areas that require strengthening and to support reporting and information sharing Australia Awards: evaluation of outcomes from Australia Awards granted in the past 10 years (recently completed), a mid-term review of operational effectiveness and a gender review AusAID-CSIRO partnerships: evaluation to assess progress against objectives and inform future directions for the program Australia-Africa Partnerships Facility: undertake separate reviews of the effectiveness of mining study tours, gender initiatives, operational performance and program relevance Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia: undertake a mid-term review of program performance Sudan non-government organisation program: independent completion review Zimbabwe Food and Water Initiative: review non-government organisation performance and achievement of activity objectives

McIntosh County Shouters in performance on Sapelo Island, Georgia The stamping stick also has been documented in Cuba, where it is used during funeral rites for deceased practitioners of the Yoruba-descended religion called Santería or Regla de Ochá. Called there págugu (a name incorporating the Yoruba okpa, "stick," and egungun, "spirits of the dead"), it is struck against the ground to activate spiritual forces. The págugu, painted black and often festooned with a number of variously colored ribbons, reportedly is a symbolic representation of the deceased, and as such must be as long as the person was tall (Marcuse 1975:38). Such ritual use of wooden stampers also occurs in areas of Africa other than Nigeria, the ancestral homeland Cuba's Yoruba descendants. An example is seen in the déblés, the so-called "rhythm pounders" of the Senufo people of southern Mali and northern Côte d'Ivoire. Carved in the shape of an elongated human body, usually that of a woman, déblés are used in ceremonies of the all-male Lo society (known more widely as the Poro), during which initiates hold the figures by the upper arms and pound them on the ground to keep the rhythm in rituals performed to promote the fertility of the soil and at the funerals of important Lo society members.

ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS AND DEVELOPMENTAL CHALLENGES CONFRONTING RIVER NIGER AND ITS BASIN BY Professor Haruna Kuje Professor of Environmental Science Department of Geography Nasarawa State University, PMB 1022 Keffi Nasarawa State, Nigeria E-mail: Phone: +234(0)8024523151 BEING PAPER PRESENTED AT THE 8TH AFRICAN ORGANIZATION OF SUPREME AUDIT INSTITUTIONS WORKING GROUP ON ENVIRONMENTAL AUDITING (AFROSAI-WGEA) ANNUAL MEETING, WHICH HELD FROM 12TH -16TH SEPTEMBER, 2016 AT TRANSCOP HILTON HOTEL, ABUJA, NIGERIA PROTOCOL The Ag. Auditor-General for the Federation (Mrs F N Anyanwu; FCNA, ACT); Distinguished African Delegates from various Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) Distinguished ladies and gentlemen I thank the Office of the Audior-General for the Federation, Nigeria for inviting me to present this paper entitled: Environmental Risks/Threats confronting River Niger. OUTLINE Situating River Niger and its Basin Potentials of the Niger Basin (River Niger as a common pool resource) Development challenges within the Niger River Basin
There are over 2.5 million ha of arable land in the Niger Basin with 85% of the cultivated area dependent on rainfed farming. However, only 20% are exploited. Scattered over more than 1.5 Million km2 distributed over nearly 13◦ latitude, the 50 million herders of the basin maintain 138 million livestock units (Diop et al. 2009a). The north–south distribution of species is a function of their resistance to drought and their ability to exploit natural rangelands. Camels constitute the dominant form of breeding in the north of the basin and may be found up to 13◦N. At lower latitudes, zebu (Bos indicus) cattle are found. Below 8◦N latitude, are the Bos taurus cattle and smaller ruminants. There are small ruminants, mostly goat and sheep, across the basin (Plate 4). There are two major livestock production systems in the basin: nomadic herders, who live on Sahelo-Saharan fringes and who have large herds of zebu cattle, and sedentary herders. 4.Grazing in the Niger Basin (WWF–Canon/John E Newby) Fishery Potential The River harbours 36 families and nearly 250 species of freshwater fish, of which 20 are found nowhere else on Earth. Eleven of the 18 families of freshwater fish (Plate 5) that are endemic to Africa are represented in the Niger River (WWF 1986). Plate 5. One of the Fish species in the Niger River ( 27/7/2016) Navigation In many the Niger River is used for navigation, depending on time and location. Between Guinea and Mali however, there is no commercial traffic. From August to January, the Niger is navigable from Koulikoro to Gao. The Inland Delta is navigable for small fishing boats throughout the year. In the wet season, boats are the most popular transport method in the delta. Mopti on the Bani tributary serves as main port in the Inland Delta. Downstream of the delta, navigation on the Niger is limited until Timbuktu. From Timbuktu to Niamey, navigation is possible, although difficult in some parts due to rocks and rapids.
