- Looking for inspiration to breathe more life into your lessons?
- Are you frustrated by current opportunities for teaching Computing within ICT?
- Do you struggle to find dynamic resources to engage your pupils?
- Do you wish to enhance your own skills to keep pace with your students who seem to 'know it all already'?
Then join us, for a unique opportunity to hear from practising teachers and educators about developing computing in our schools. Find out all you need to know about the exciting new product Kodu from Matt MacLaurin - he should know, he built it! Become a master magician and amaze your pupils with your sleight of hand with cs4fn supremo Peter McOwan. Other presentations will include running after school clubs, specialist forum for A Level Computing teachers, Greenfoot and many more.
One of the highlights will be the poster exhibition where teachers will share how they are introducing computing into their classrooms. Come and share your ideas and experience! Further details about how to contribute can be found here

If you would like to contribute to this evening then please email me info@computingatschool.org.uk and I will add your name to the program. Speak for 2 mins or 7 mins on a topic related to Computing at School. All we ask is that you educate us, engage us and above all encourage!
