NCSL OBC Partnership Programme Conference
8th & 9th December 2008
Novotel London West, Hammersmith

Please visit the workshops page to view the presentations from each session.

Our environment is central to how we learn. Currently we have an opportunity to redefine the spaces in which we learn, both physical and virtual, and to examine what we want our schools to be in the future. We need to ensure that any new setup, in terms of both buildings and infrastructure, will fulfil learners’ needs now and in the future by using new technologies and practices which engage learners.
	This conference is a two day event where LAs in the programme come together, giving leaders the opportunity to collaborate and share emerging practice. Both days are centred around thirty different workshops where experts and practitioners share their knowledge and experience. The workshops are grouped into several strands which cover leadership, design, technology, sustainability, pedagogy and innovation, community and extended schools.
