ABOUT THIS COURSE
This brand-new course offers the opportunity for high-quality professional development within a smaller group setting. The course is designed to be fully interactive: key ideas are introduced in the Keynote Sessions, and then worked through via discussion-based workshops, allowing you to think about how the learning from the day can be applied within your own context.
BENEFITS OF ATTENDING
A great opportunity to reflect on your current practice and find innovative ways to upskill and refine your approaches. The interactive and discussion-based nature of the day also creates an ideal way to meet with people from other schools, network and share best practice.
