This year's focus is Relational Approaches to Inclusion.

We have some amazing workshops lined up, including: building resilient classrooms, staff wellbeing, a neurodiversity affirming approach to managing trauma, relational approaches to inclusion policy and professional and parental perspectives on EBSA.

We also have two inspirational keynote speakers joining us:

Lads Like Us - On a mission to educate a million professionals with their lived experience!

Mike and Danny will share their lived experience and deep understanding of trauma, taking us on a rollercoaster of emotions whilst informing our practice for the better. They will be speaking about the issues around trauma informed practice, professional curiosity and the life changing difference it can make.

Anthony Benedict (Executive Head Teacher at Tameside's Pupil Referral Unit)

Anthony has been a teacher for over 25 years; part of his current role now includes trying to reduce exclusions. He has created an innovative outreach programme which focuses on a proactive, relational approach, which he is piloting in 13 primary schools. Anthony will be discussing the process of turning theory into practice and how we can make our settings relationally inclusive.
