Our Evidence Bites events bring national voices in education out to us here in East Cambs & Fenland. They are deliberately very accessible and informal and always finish by 6.30pm so you can get home at a reasonable time!
After a busy day in school, join us to recharge over some food and drink. Enjoy catching up with colleagues from previous events or meeting new faces if it's your first time. Our inspiring speakers always give us plenty of 'food for thought' and there are opportunities to ask questions and enjoy more informal discussions afterwards.
Why not bring several members of staff so you can continue discussions back at school? Use the discount code MULTI for multiple tickets.
Schedule:
4.30pm - 5.10pm: meet, chat and enjoy a bite to eat with colleagues.
5 .10pm - 6.10pm: hear from our guest speaker, Q&A session
6 .10pm - 6.30pm: informal discussion and time to head home
Organiser Information
East Cambs and Fenland Schools Evidence Network
The network is a group of senior and middle leaders working in schools across East Cambs and Fenland, seeking to shine a light on using evidence–informed approaches, to ensure the best possible outcomes for all our students, particularly those who are disadvantaged.
The network of Evidence Advocates understands the many benefits and challenges of working in rural schools and are keen to support each other in ensuring excellence for all our pupils. They know that evidence is crucial to inform leadership decision-making and that clear, focused implementation planning leads to sustainable change for school improvement. It’s not just what we do in our schools that matters, but the way we do it. Our Evidence Advocates can help support leaders and work alongside colleagues to engage with evidence, to support their school development planning.
