Which aspects of the conference did you find most useful?

"Helpful to have a forward looking agenda grounded in classroom/school practice."

 

"Having the opportunity to revisit issues in light of the new Ofsted framework."

 

"Most useful aspects in getting up to date, clear information."

"Found all of it very useful, particularly new initiatives and changes to Ofsted inspections."

 

"Each session was useful, but keynotes on behaviour and self-evaluation were first class."
