TICKETS FOR EYFS CONFERENCE 2016 (see below for full details)

This year’s conference will see us turning our attention to how to build resilience in the adults. We will be focusing on  ensuring they feel confident in all they do. Delegates should go away feeling reinvigorated and refreshed.

The programme will include a keynote speech and six workshops. There will be opportunities to network and browse the market. To tempt you, here is some feedback from last year:

‘The day was thought provoking, inspiring, great resources, friendly teachers’                                 

‘I liked the mixture of keynote speech + workshops, and the opportunity to share ideas and network’                                               

‘The talk was inspiring, the workshops were useful, all great ideas’.
