The doors open at 8:30 with registration and coffee with a small sandwich. At 9:00 sharp the programme starts. It ends at around 16:30 with a chance to mingle, with bubbly and music. We will sit at round tables and discuss with teacher colleagues from all parts of the world to exchange experiences and thoughts. The day will be a mix between short lectures, interviews, breakout sessions and discussions with the colleagues at your table. In the Q&A sessions, you’ll be able to ask questions of the speakers on stage.
Do you already have questions for our speakers? You are welcome to post them here!
