This conference will support leaders across all types of education settings and phases to better understand disadvantaged inclusion, helping to develop and strengthen strategies to improve outcomes.
The conference will also build on the latest research and evidence in this area of leadership and help delegates understand the political landscape, covering policy changes, the Curriculum and Assessment Review, and the new inspection framework through a disadvantage inclusion lens.
Our programme of speakers, all of whom are expert practitioners in their field, will ensure delegates leave with clarity and direction.
We are delighted that Marc Rowland, a national expert on disadvantaged provision, is one of our keynote speakers and has helped programme this event to enable leaders to deal with some of the biggest challenges facing this area of school or college leadership.
