📅 Monday 5th July 2027

This is about something bigger than a conference.

Cornwall’s geography and rurality mean that too often, accessing high-quality CPD involves long travel times and significant cost. We want to change that.

This Festival will bring together educators from primary, secondary and Further Education, alongside colleagues in SEND, apprenticeships, skills and careers, for a day of:

✨ High-quality, bite-size, evidence-informed CPD

✨ Cross-phase collaboration

✨ Practical strategies that translate into real classrooms

✨ A celebration of the excellent practice already happening across the county

The strands running throughout the day:

• Digital Technology

• SEND & Inclusion

• Disadvantage & Social Mobility

• Teaching, Learning & Curriculum

• Apprenticeships, Skills & Careers

This is fantastic opportunity to develop collaborative professional learning for Cornwall, and to again showcase the strength of practice across our education system.
