The Sunday Times Festival of Education: A roaring success

Having had the day marked in our calendars for a long time (mainly with a view to the deadlines we had to reach on the projects we were working on for it!) it was with great pleasure that we spent the day at The Sunday Times Festival of Education on Friday 20 June. It was a really wonderful day, full of energy, thought, fun, sights, sounds and surprises. If you haven’t heard about the Festival then where have you been?!

With keynote speakers such  as Michael Gove, Simon Mayo and Baroness Estelle Morris as well as events ranging from scuba diving to cooking with Paul Rankin to a driving taster session with Mercedes Benz World or testing your running speed against Usain Bolt’s record time, it strikes the perfect balance between a fun festival and a serious place to clock up some CPD points and engage with leading educational thinkers.

Congratulations to Summerhouse Education, Wellington College and The Sunday Times, and to everyone involved, for a fantastic event. The event will run again in 2015, so bookmark www.festivalofeducation.com now to keep up to date. See you there!
