I have spent the last two days at The Whole Education Conference in London and it was fantastic!

I have listened to some great educational speakers such as Professor Tim Brighouse, Sir David Carter Regional Schools and Drs Linda Kaser and Judy Halbert. They have really challenged my thinking and inspired me as a learner. They have posed great questions such as..

As teachers do we reflect on how our culture, ethos and leadership are impacting on our pupils?

How do we make it possible for the teaching profession to pursue what they believe in as well as government targets?

At the heart of all the discussions that I have participated in over the last few days, it is clear that listening to children is what makes the difference to children’s learning.Teachers at Brooklands Farm will always listen and will always make time. Over the next few weeks I will be testing this out and making sure we listen enough.
