Conferences

edfestimages1.jpgWellington is becoming a national and international centre for educational thinking and debate. The conference programme at Wellington is aimed at heads and teachers from both the independent and state sector, and other interested parties such as universities, local authorities and subject specialists. The programme addresses the leading educational issues of the day.

 

The conferences are extremely successful, attracting hundreds of delegates from all over the country. They have been on subjects including the teaching of Mandarin in British schools, state and independent school sectors working together more effectively, politics and education, and teaching happiness and well-being. Speakers have included Professor Howard Gardner, Dr Martin Seligman, Michael Gove MP, Tal Ben Shahar, Lord Adonis, David Willetts MP, Professor Lord Richard Layard, Sir Cyril Taylor, Sir Peter Lampl and Dr Martin Stephen.

Information on the Wellington conferences programme is available from Tarla Woolhouse. A Conference Brochure for the coming term is also available in PDF format.
