Hosted by the International School of Basel, March 21ST and 22ND
Understanding the child: the student revisited
At its annual conference this year, SGIS has tried to focus the programme on issues that will be felt by teachers to be directly relevant to their classroom teaching, whatever the age, ability and background of the students they teach.
Through a stimulating programme of speaker-led sessions, a wide-ranging exhibition and great opportunities for networking, participants will be offered the opportunity to reflect on their practice, to explore new ideas, and to find both encouragement and challenge.
