Our last conference for this school year is in York - ideal for schools and colleges anywhere in the North, but also accessible for those a little further afield due to the excellent transport links.
Our Earwig Conferences have been great successes, as both national and local get-ogethers for Heads, Deputies, Assessment Coordinators, Earwig Admins, Earwig Ambassadors and other assorted keen Earwig-ites. Take a peek at the agenda below and you'll see what we'll get up to.
This conference will be held in the 5 star The Principal Hotel in York, which is a smart venue with on site parking and couldn’t be easier to get to as it is located right next to the railway station. The conference ticket includes all the usual refreshments and also a slap up lunch in the smart restaurant.
Aside from the victuals, this is what you can expect to get from the day:
The event will be hosted by Alex Hurle and Roland Bugler, who will be familiar to many of you, and who will focus on opportunities and issues that they are dealing with among the 150+ schools that they support. The draft schedule for the day is included below. There will be a lot to cover, as always, and you will get a CPD certificate at the end of it, to verify the hard work that you will put in.
