Roedean Teacher Colloquium Marketplace

The atmosphere was very supportive, and everyone did so well.

The Symposium was a meaningful evening and I gained much insight into various fields linked to Psychology, such as Crime and Queer Theory. I was also able to train my networking and socialising skills, through an unique window to meet new peers from Lancing College. Overall, I had a very memorable evening and am looking forward to more inter-school academic events in the future!

Not to be outdone by our Year 12 students, on 21 June, our staff body also engaged in an afternoon of sharing their research into teaching, learning, and school community issues that they had carried out in colloquia across the academic year!

This year, there were six colloquia, which met twice a term to discuss themes such as inclusivity within the curriculum, methods of reporting, and stretch and challenge within teaching. The presentations shared with colleagues at the marketplace offered all the opportunity to reflect upon their individual teaching practices, as we look ahead to a new academic year.
