Festival of Education: Teach First keynote session
Hear from the next generation about their experiences of racial inequality within education and beyond – and what we can do to change it.
We’re excited to be partnering with the Festival of Education, an online event that takes place between 16 – 30 June 2021. This two-week festival is a key event in the education calendar as it offers an array of inspiring keynotes and CPD days, all bringing credible, topical and thought-provoking sessions that you can access for free.
Typically hosted within the beautiful grounds of Wellington College, this year’s festival will be a virtual experience in-line with COVID-19 guidelines. There will be daily keynotes taking place every afternoon of the festival and each Friday will feature valuable CPD opportunities for education professionals.
We’ll be hosting a number of CPD workshops over the two Friday Fests, aiming to bring you the latest thinking from a range of different voices in education. Please see the following keynote session hosted by our CEO on 24 June:
