CPD events are, of course, irreplacable events: face to face networking is the best (some would say the only) form of networking.

The Trial of Alfred Wegener
Richard Allaway has taken an original idea of mine (which I did with my 6th form groups) and taken it to the next level.

Richard has reworked it as an activity for YEAR 9 PUPILS.
Give it a go...
