PE and Sport Team Came Together for the FOBISIA Conference at The Alice Smith

It was a KLASS few days in Kuala Lumpur as over 150 PE and sport delegates came together from across the region for the AGM and conference. With the previous two conferences held online members of the PE community were long overdue a face to face opportunity to reconnect with colleagues and network across the region.

During the three days there were over 50 sessions on offer. These were hosted an organised by the PE and sport team at the Alice Smith School with support from the FOBISIA PE and Sport Executive Committee. Delegates were treated to keynote addressed from Manisha Tailor MBE, Neil Rollings and James Simms. Each speaker, an expert in their field, setting the scene for the day ahead and providing members with expertise across professional sport, diversity, high performance and academic PE. These key notes were complemented with a huge range of workshops to suit each delegate. There were workshops tailored towards academic PE, core PE, school sport development as well a number of sports specific sessions. One of the highlights had to be the workshop sessions hosted by netball superstar Tracey Neville MBE.

A huge thank you to all the delegates who travelled, the speakers who made the event so fantastic and the team at FOBISIA for all the support given in putting together such a fantastic event.

Really enjoyed the atmosphere and the enthusiasm within the room. I’m new to FOBISA but I felt welcomed and supported by others.

The PE sports conference was very informative and well-organized. The speakers were knowledgeable and provided valuable insights on current trends and best practices in the field. The sessions were interactive and engaging, allowing for active participation and discussion among attendees. The venue was also convenient and comfortable. Overall, the conference was a great opportunity to network and learn from other teachers and schools, as well as industry experts.
