We are excited here at The STEM Hub to launch our annual primary science conference and host it at the inspiring STEM building at Canterbury Christ Church University. Please find full details below and we hope you can join us.
Get ready to be inspired at the upcoming Kent Primary Science Conference. The conference will be packed with the latest CPD, hands-on activities and demonstrations about how to bring science to life in the classroom, making even the most complex topics engaging and fun for young learners.
Inspiration will be a key focus with award winning chartered science teacher (CSciTeach) and CPD Quality Mark lead professional development leader, Bryony Turford delivering a keynote sharing her experience of working within the inspirational space of primary science. She will show you how to get the most from your role as a new or experienced science leader to make your work even more effective.
There will be sessions dedicated to showcasing innovative teaching practices and strategies to ensure every student can participate and succeed in science. From interactive workshops to thought-provoking discussions, the event promises to empower educators to create science experiences that are exciting, inclusive, and inspiring for the next generation of young scientists!
Bryony Turford has been delivering high quality professional learning for leaders, classroom practitioners, trainees and ECTs for 20 years. Bryony's work is well published as a contributing author in articles and chapters in many educational books and journals as well as co-author of Bloomsbuy's 100 ideas for primary teachers: Science. Bryony was also a key part of the author team for Collins' first and recently published second edition of Snap Science.
She also works as regional lead for Primary Science Quality Mark (PSQM) and as regional representative for The Ogden Trust. Both of these are based in the Yorkshire and Humber region.
Bryony will be sharing her experience of working within the inspirational space of primary science and how to get the most from it in your role as a new or experienced science leader to make your work even more effective.
