Secondary Post 16 Best Practice Forum
This is a regular forum to provide Heads of Post 16, Partnership Co-ordinators and FE colleagues with an opportunity to share information and practice focusing on current and future 14 to 19 priorities, both strategic and operational.
Message from Facilitator Re: Session 3
Dear Colleagues,
You will hopefully be aware that there are two events happening for Post 16 Leaders in July, which you have all been invited to:
· Ofsted HMI 14-19 National Lead Jim Sage 7th July 2015 at Downend School in the morning ' all schools have been invited to send Post 16 Lead and Senior Leader (where appropriate);
· Bristol Post 16 Conference on 9th July 2015 8.45 ' 13.45 Bristol University
Consequently it has been decided that the Post 16 Forum will be replaced by these events and is therefore cancelled on 01/07/15.
I look forward to seeing you all on 7th July.
Best wishes,

This session will look at what constitutes feedback, and how teachers can effectively harness these approaches.
