Forthcoming education conferences in London, England

September 25, 2017

Not all of these are concerned with education technology, but they are all concerned with education. They all look interesting.

EduTech Conference http://www.eventdata.co.uk/Forms/Default.aspx?FormRef=EduA7Visitor 6th October to 7th October 2017

This conference looks very interesting, with lots of 30 minute slots. I’ll be talking there on the Friday, on the subject of 10 stimulating ideas for your Computing curriculum. Look through the listings, and you’re bound to recognise some of the names.

The conference is free to attend, so definitely worth going to!

The next few conferences listed are from the Westminster Forum. These are short -- typically only a morning -- but they pack a lot in, with several five minute talks and a few 20 minute ones.
