Who is with me? Future-ready schools must be joyful, inclusive and rooted in community. In future-ready schools, technology and creativity aren’t add-ons — they are the foundations of the schools our children deserve. This is the future of education, this is #InspiredToLearn.

HALF PRICE FESTIVAL FOR TEACHERS…

You may have seen that we’ve teamed up with EduTwitter legend, Uke guru and BrewEd co-founder Ed Finch to run a very special event

#OurArtCamp is a festival within Lakefest 6-10 August at the stunning Eastnor Castle Deerpark

As well as over 400 acts on 12 stages we’ll have talks, workshops and performances celebrating what makes us human, our art which could be anything from painting to photography, cooking to coding, trains to teaching

And we’re reinkarnating The KLF as #OurKLF 🔼 to inspire our kids to change the world

We have a few free places for anyone who wants to help and be part of it with a talk,‘performance or workshop

And we have a few places for 46% off adult weekend tickets for teachers and artists who just want to kick back

@tetheredtoed1 @Mouhssin_Ismail Not needed when using @MerlynforEDU, computer is ‘run’ by the teachers voice. Total game changer for us.

[Gary Spracklen @Nelkcarps]

@RachelVPowell @Mouhssin_Ismail @LearnitureUK sells a great podium.

Delighted to welcome @POWFS pupils to @UKParliament today, along with their fantastic teachers. So many great questions. They got up very early to come to London to learn about how our democracy works.

[Gary Spracklen @Nelkcarps]

Best school trip ever!!!

Thank you @EdwardMorelloWD and @UKParlEducation for the warm welcome to the Houses of Parliament today.

Such an amazing experience for all involved. Great #InspiredToLearn in action.

@IanNairn @MerlynforEDU @jbrowning22 @james_wilding @s_spence10 @Ranga_EDU @IanHabs @mejessop Challenge #2: Teachers are tethered to their devices - such an important point here. Reminds me of these insights from @StephenHeppell - https://t.co/VhFBfi20ZE. Read/replace 'teacher device' for 'teacher desk'.
