The Early Years And Primary Conferences 2019 are just a week away!
Thursday, 14 November 2019
œThis is a unique opportunity for school leaders, leadership teams, teachers and support staff to reflect on and develop policy and practice in their schools across both phases, making sure that the learning journey continues seamlessly for children as they move through school.

Day one™s theme will be around Getting the Balance Right because we know you want to get the best results out of your school without compromising on effective teaching and learning.

Day two™s theme is focused on Reclaiming the Research “ what does it really tell us? and will explore what really works well for school leaders based on the research.

Our keynote speakers and workshops across both days have been carefully chosen to inform and inspire delegates, provoke discussion and debate, highlight the very latest and best research and pedagogy in Early Years and Primary Education.
