Julia Garvey, Deputy Director General, will talk you through our schools-facing marketing plan which aims to raise awareness of the BESA logo and kitemark of quality, the range and quality of companies in membership and our LendED and LearnED initiatives.
 

An overview of UK Education

BESA's Deputy Director General, Julia Garvey, will give a primer on the key structures of the English school system, the national curriculum, assessment and accountability within schools – alongside emerging trends, such as the rise of the Multi-Academy Trusts. The workshop also aims to give participants a good working knowledge of the key government departments and agencies. This session is for those new to the education sector.
