Approaches to teaching and learning inspired by cognitive science are becoming increasingly common. In these sessions, led by John Holmes, we will support teachers and school leaders in understanding this evidence, and working out how it can be applied to their contexts and adapted to meet the needs of their pupils.
Each session will run from 3.30pm – 4.30pm and provide opportunities for discussion with fellow participants.
