Following the decision to postpone the Healthy Schools Summer Conference in July due to a variety of factors, an appeal went out to schools to provide feedback to help shape this event for the future.
Thank you to all of those schools that responded with very helpful and insightful comments as well as suggestions for keynote speakers and presentations to support embedding whole school approaches to health and wellbeing.
The feedback to date suggests that a conference in Autumn Term 2 would be most beneficial. In view of the Summer break, the deadline for the feedback has been extended to the 23rd September. The survey should take no longer than 5 minutes to complete and all responses will be most appreciated to confirm the next steps to take.
Thank you in advance and the outcome of the feedback will be shared by the end of September.
