Extremely productive, great networking. Really helpful expert speakers and all round brilliant day.
Fantastic day, really good sessions, loads of resources and networking.
Your events have always been excellent.
Wow what another amazing day - lots of contacts made for the future, a big thank you.
I just wanted to send a personal thank you for the wonderful event on Friday. I left feeling thoroughly inspired, filled with knowledge (and food!). A wonderful opportunity to learn and meet others in a similar field.
It was great meeting you and thank you for a great day!
Excellent teacher/trainer event providing loads of information, resources and a variety of knowledgeable speakers. CPD relevant and the opportunity for great networking. It was brilliant to finally meet Ann who's books were my bible during my teacher training. Now looking forward to getting stuck into Ann and Sharron's new book. I haven’t stopped singing its praises to my colleagues! Elaine Fisher
It was a fantastic event. Thank you once again.

A great day. This is my third and each time I have learnt and shared more. I have grown in my career role. This day has helped me network and even given me ideas for the future. Amazing! Martin Hipwell
Being a trainer for a charity and delivering courses in prison can be isolating on both fronts because we are not part of a wider education network so events like your conference are essential to help us keep up with changes in the sector, and to give us an opportunity to network and feel a part of things.

A really valuable day. So glad I attended.
I had a great day. I never get to normally come to training like this. I feel more confident and knowledgeable about things that would normally get fed back in an unpositive way.
A great day!
Thank you for an excellent day.
A wonderful day thank you so much.
Really pleased with the event - very practical as expected.

Aim of the day
