EDUCATION SHOW PREVIEW - THEMES & SESSIONS
a lot of money for any school. If you are visiting The Education Show on the Friday (17 March), the session giving advice on ‘How to recruit the right teachers for your school in 3 steps’ should be of interest. At 11:20, Mark Robinson, CEO of FindEd, will cover the do’s and don’ts of recruiting the right teachers for your school. He will provide a framework for both assessing and improving your current processes. The session is not only set to save your budget on the cost of recruiting but will also help you to get the right staff to improve standards in your school.
until 10:30am, Melanie Renowden, executive director of School and System Partnerships, Ambition School Leadership will be sharing her experiences on ‘Diversifying expertise in leadership teams’. Later that day at 2:15, the headteacher of Aureus School, GLF and co- founder of WomenEd, Hannah Wilson will be sharing her insight into why ‘Diversity Matters: Who is on your Senior Leadership Team?’ Whatever your current area of interest, it’s sure to be covered in the CPD sessions at The Education Show and Bett Academies. So please visit the websites to decide in advance which sessions you want to attend and reserve your seat. We assure you it will be a day away from school that is well-invested.
Peer engagement
What is interesting when you speak to visitors, is that chatting with other school leaders at the show is actually sometimes the most valuable benefit. “It is inevitable that if I am speaking to a supplier of parental engagement systems, for example, other headteachers on the stand will be experiencing the same issues as I am. On top of all the other things on offer at The Education Show, striking up a conversation with them, sharing ideas and experiences can be the most valuable part of your day.
Diversity in Leadership
A strong theme running through The Education Show and Bett Academies this year is ‘diversity’, especially in leadership. If you are at the NEC on Thursday 16 March (the first day of the show) we recommend you also register for the session being presented at Bett Academies. From 9:50
Once you have soaked up your own day of CPD, you may want to consider the development opportunities for your staff. A visit to Cloudtrainer on stand F91 will give you the tools and advice on how to empower your teachers to take control of their own CPD. The launch of Cloudtrainer brings to the education sector a system designed for
professionals, allowing staff to access and share CPD internally, as well as other best practice. The central library of content allows schools to access (and contribute to) a wider range of learning resources.
On stand J68, Open Futures, an accredited CPD programme, will be on hand showing you how its designed to help teachers to build children's ability 'to think and to do'.
The programme develops skills of enquiry, underpininng learning in three other strands of practical activity - cooking, horticulture and digital filmmaking. This hands-on learning provides children with a sense of purpose and develops an understanding of the world around them. The Open Futures approach allows all learners to contribute positively to the classroom, and their community.
Inspiring to Inspire on stand G85 is a unique, easy-to-use and advert-free website, designed to fulfil Ofsted’s requirements to engage parents in their child’s mathematical learning that works on computers, tablets and smartphones. With an Education Show special offer, we recommend a visit to this stand.
Whether your focus is managing budgets, recruitment, development of the core skills, or delivery of the computing curriculum you are sure to leave the show inspired and in an elevated position of understanding.
