The National Learning Platforms Conference 2010
An inspiring conference for forward-thinking school leaders - Achieving educational excellence through creativity and innovation
Published:  22 April, 2010

Hosted by award-winning education technology specialists Frog (www.frogtrade.com), secondary school leaders across the country are invited to attend The National Learning Platforms Conference 2010 – Frog’s most inspirational educational event of the year. This free one-day event will feature workshops and keynotes including ‘From intranet and failed VLEs to outstanding success’ by Cramlington Learning Village to ‘Parents and schools: learning platforms supporting a new partnership’ by Simon Shaw from Becta. Every workshop is intended to give forward-thinking school leaders the inspiration to maximise the impact of their Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) and achieve excellence through creativity.

Opening the event is keynote speaker Lord Sutherland who has made many contributions to education, including serving as Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector of Schools in England (1992-94), and has received numerous distinctions, including ten honorary degrees from European and American universities.

This unique conference will provide school leaders with insight into everything they need to know about how schools have successfully embedded learning platforms and parental engagement platforms, together with the tools and inspiration to achieve great results. Delegates can learn how Arrow Vale Community High School is engaging students through creativity and ownership, how Thomas Alleyne’s High School is promoting whole school engagement, and how Costello Technology College is using its award-winning parent portal to engage parents. Delegates can also attend Haybridge High School and Sixth Form’s practical workshop about how to sustain the momentum of a learning platform.
