"A much-needed space to reflect on current practice and be inspired to continue to strive for excellence for the young people we serve."
"I am really impressed with the quality of speakers and the opportunity to network and collaborate. "
"Thank you for another thought-provoking and inspirational conference. I am returning to school revitalised and re-energised. I will be taking back numerous pieces of work which will no doubt continue to build upon the transformational influence that membership of the PTI has already brought over the last few years. "
"Inspirational speakers who inspired great professional dialogue, reflection and future school planning."
"My goal in attending any training is so I can do my job better and have a greater impact on my colleagues and children I am responsible for. This event, as it did last year, achieves this superbly."
"The opportunity to reflect on the focus shared was time well spent. Each speaker provided a though provoking focus followed by take top discussions that were invaluable."
"Really enjoyed the day, nice variety of speakers who brought pertinent issues to the forefront of my thinking"
"Excellent subject content provided by specialist speakers has guided my thinking and direction for change."
"Every speaker has made me reflect on my practice and to remind me to never sit back and always be ready to have my educational thinking, challenged"
"Love the PTI and all of the training. The residential has allowed me to focus on some of the needs of my school and how we can move forward."
"Providing research based, expert training has helped to inform my thinking now as we return to school. Having access to engage with the quality of speakers, colleagues and ideas has inspired me once again to promote high quality subject teaching and learning in my own school, and to look to build more links to PTI with schools in Cumbria. "
"I have thought more deeply about what it is that I want the children in my school to learn rather than what the teachers in my school need to teach. I have been thinking about how that subject knowledge develops over time and how the curriculum in my school should empower the children in my school with the firm foundations they deserve for the next phase in their journey."
