Webinars

After a year like no other, we’re asking ourselves:

1. How will school change post-pandemic, and what should teaching and learning look like?

2. How can we harness this moment to imagine an education system that is equitable, innovative, and that truly supports all children?

In this online discussion, we’ll explore a better new normal for education. We’ll explore issues like:

• The future of virtual learning and digital technology in schools
• ‘Lost learning’ and the challenges with this concept
• The structure of schooling: school buildings, school days and year groups
• The future of high-stakes assessments like GCSEs and A-Levels
• Emotional and mental good health - supporting and nurturing wellbeing
• Changing parent perspectives on learning

Join us to shape the debate on the future of learning - and how to build the education system we want.

How can children and teens manage anxiety in uncertain times? How can we proactively support student mental health? And how can we change the future of teaching, to put wellbeing front and centre?

Join Keith Brymer-Jones from the Great Pottery Throwdown to explore art as a means to combat stress and anxiety. In a world where students are encountering untold stress, we’ll look at the restorative effects of practising art - and the evidence base behind this.

We’ll also look at how you can easily integrate art into your teaching - and how this can immediately benefit your students’ wellbeing.

We’ll be joined by experts from the Oxford Brookes MA Education programme and students from Bexhill College.
