The Work of Teaching, In Conversation
A recurring live conversation about the parts of teaching that are difficult to describe from the outside: attention, judgement, time, relationships and the work teachers carry.
Staffroom Review
Events
Conversations, gatherings and practical sessions for people who care about teaching—the ideas on the page, brought into the room.

The first programme is being developed now. These are the event propositions we are building towards.

A quieter evening conversation built around one Staffroom Review essay and the questions it leaves behind.
A Staffroom Review gathering

A room for the questions that do not fit a panel.
A larger conversation without the usual pressure to have a neat answer.
How we meet
Different kinds of gatherings for different kinds of questions.
