What our delegates say

“It’s great for me to be in the learning role for a change.”

                                              Sixth form college teacher, South East England

“I am impressed by the ‘compactness’ of the event and by the eclectic choice of lecture topics – it cannot be improved.”

                                                                                  Academy teacher, South West England

“It is such a privilege to be able to learn new concepts, and to widen and enrich existing knowledge. It has been a great pleasure to talk with colleagues from other institutions and sectors.”
