Student Voice is back!

Student Voice is an exciting and current CPD opportunity for primary and secondary teachers. It will focus on strategies to ensure all learners have their voices and opinions heard. Delegates can choose to bring up to two students between Year 6 to Year 11 from their school to participate in the day’s activities.

The event aims to develop the use of student voice for both the students and the teachers. Therefore, the students and teachers will follow two different programmes on the day, culminating in a joint debate about the current issues in schools.

	The Teachers’ Toolkit sessions An important challenge for teachers is ‘How can I ensure that all my students have an opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge and understanding?’ The Teachers’ Toolkit is a series of sessions to demonstrate a range of technologies, devices and strategies that enable all children to contribute and participate in all aspects of their learning
	Free Every1Speaks Licence for Every School Every1Speaks allows you to effectively support student voice by capturing ideas, promoting discussion and working with your students to create lasting results in your School. Teachers and students will be using Every1Speaks to develop their ideas and express their views throughout the day.
	Young People's Debate chaired by BBC Politics Show presenter Richard Moss The activities during the day will prepare the students to participate in a lively debate chaired by BBC Politics Show presenter Richard Moss.
	Present an internet radio programme with the inspirational Russell Prue Award Winning ICT Evangelist, Author, Inventor & Broadcaster, Russell Prue will work with the students to produce a live radio broadcast. Throughout the day students will participate in a range of team and confidence building exercises, consider the current educational issues and how to debate effectively. In the afternoon, they will participate in a ‘Question Time’ style debate on the theme of ‘changes in education and the priorities in our schools’. Tune in LIVE
