16 May Classroom Collaboration and Becoming a Great Academy
On Friday 10th June, Trusol will host presentations and discussions, focusing on cutting-edge learning, classroom collaboration and the topic of academy schools. We’re thrilled to welcome Sir Steve Lancashire as our keynote speaker, and we’re looking forward to hearing his take on the two key topics at hand.
Sir Steve always had ambitions to be a head teacher, even in his early life, and is now chief executive of one of the largest academy school chains in the UK. Guided by his keynote, and his experience with the REAch2 Academy Trust, we’ll be looking more closely at the way we use technology in our classrooms.
A Fresh View of Academy Conversion
The event will also look at a topic Sir Steve is closely involved in: the academy school system. After the government’s recent climbdown on forced academy conversion, we’ll discuss some of the success stories that support the model, and look at ways to avoid problems during the conversion process.
Our topic is ‘The dos and don’ts of a successful academy conversion’, so we’ll look at some of the most successful examples of academies today, including Sir Steve’s own organisation, the REAch2 Academy Trust. Is the academy now a tainted model, or can we collectively learn from the discourse with Nicky Morgan and move forward to embrace its strengths?
New Horizons for Learning
From tablet computers to interactive whiteboards, Trusol has deployed classroom technology that empowers students to be more flexible and creative. In turn, these new devices and techniques give teachers the tools they need to deliver more interactive and engaging lessons.
At our 10th June event, we will be looking at the modern classroom as it is today, and looking ahead as schools continue to embrace the digital revolution. The technology that has driven new opportunities in business is now disrupting learning and teaching, and delivering hugely positive results.
Trusol is keen to look at how cutting edge innovation is improving outcomes for pupils, and helping children to grasp complex topics across the curriculum. With extensive experience in a range of educational settings, including schools in special measures, Sir Steve Lancashire is ideally placed to comment on his vision.
