The theme of Northern Grid’s 2012 conference is focused on how education technology supports and engages all members of the learning community. Teachers, pupils and parents are enriched and empowered by the communication opportunities available through effective use of education technology and social media within the school, the local region and the wider world.
The conference programme showcases outstanding and inspiring practitioners, from across the UK, in a packed workshop schedule designed to ensure professional development is at the heart of the day.
Leaders, decision makers, teachers, governors, consultants.
Congratulations on a superb ceremony... It was my first time and I thought the organisation and the atmosphere was excellent. My team really enjoyed it so thanks to you and the organising team.
I hope you've come down to earth after an amazing two days last week!
The speakers were excellent, there was a real buzz around the event and some of the creativity reading the use of technology in the workshops was brilliant.
Their support put us on the right path and helped us on our journey to making best use of technology to support teaching and learning. We wouldn't be where we are without Northern Grid.
