I spent the first half of this week with Prep and Junior School Heads from across the country at the 2023 IAPS Heads Conference in Liverpool. Over three days, it was interesting to hear from a range of speakers on topics such as A.I, metacognition, the socio-economic outlook, diversity, problem solving and creativity. These occasions always provide valuable opportunities to talk to other professionals, exchange ideas and to listen to, and learn from, the experience of Heads in other schools.
