Reimagining the BGE Sciences Curriculum (ELC, Primary, ASN & Secondary)

VENUE CHANGE TO: Stirling Highland Hotel, Spittal Street, FK8 1DU (was originally Stirling Court Hotel).

The focus for this event will be to encourage sharing of materials, resources, ideas, plans and approaches which help to reimagine the BGE offer, and to facilitate the collaboration and co-development required to support improvements nationally.

Attendees will have the opportunity to work informally with colleagues from other schools across the day and to identify partner schools with which to collaborate and co-develop new approaches on themes such as: pedagogy, IDL and project-based learning, skills progression, learning and teaching.

Those attending will be encouraged to bring laptops and devices (to work on to facilitate sharing, co-development and collaboration) as well as samples of resources, pupil materials etc. If you love new ideas, sharing, trying new things, working with others, and thinking differently then this event is for you!
