Join SecEd & Headteacher Update for their 10th must-attend one-day conference being held at The Gallery, the NEC, Birmingham B40 1NT on Friday 28th September 2018.

Following on from the success, popularity and relevance of our previous nine Pupil Premium conferences, the 10th national 'Pupil Premium and Ofsted - Ensuring Successful Outcomes' conference will once again bring together innovative schools, headteachers, senior leaders, educationalists and other experts to offer deliverable, evidence-based, practical approaches and strategies to raise attainment, overcome barriers to success and narrow the gap for disadvantaged pupils.

With schools funding under huge pressure and strong accountability in place, it is now more vital than ever to maximise the potential of your Pupil Premium Grant.

Join our expert speakers to discuss practical Pupil Premium strategies to help you deliver high-quality teaching, identify and break down barriers to learning both in and out of the classroom, implement effective interventions, close the vocabulary gap, improve your planning, delivery, monitoring and evaluation - and ultimately raise attainment for Pupil Premium and disadvantaged students.

The speakers and interactive workshops will provide insight into ways in which the Pupil Premium can be spent effectively and will include specific focus on practical classroom strategies and interventions covering a range of areas, not least literacy education and the vocabulary gap.

The event is designed to allow you to return to your schools with the new ideas to put into practice straight away.
