With curriculum changes across all Key Stages, Seven Kings Learning Partnership are shaping and developing Subject Network Groups to help support subject leaders and responsibility holders from across our Learning Partnership, Redbridge and beyond.
Seven Kings Learning Partnership has joined forces with NELTA. Our aim is:
- To combine existing groups across the Partnerships to increase participation
- To reduce the commitment on schools which belong to more than one Partnership
Anybody can attend, not just schools within our Partnership. There is no charge, they are free to attend. All we ask is for a commitment from you to attend to make them even more successful.
See below for the sessions available:
