Closing the Gap Conference

Friday 2 December 2016 (morning only), Chesford Grange, Kenilworth

Warwickshire County Council has identified Closing the Gap as a major area for development. A project has been running for two years in response to the challenge of closing the attainment gap between disadvantaged pupils and their peers. As national research reports the full impact of the pupil premium is not yet clear but significant improvements are being made. We are hosting a second conference as part of the Warwickshire project to look at progress so far and share strategies that are working effectively to close the achievement gap of disadvantaged pupils in schools. 
 
Keynote presentations will include: 
  • Ofsted on the local and national position on Closing the Gap data and latest key policy messages
  • Sharing good practice - the peer review process and Sound Training
  • A keynote speaker from this years Pupils Premium awards. 
The conference is open to primary and secondary schools. Schools whose performance of Pupil premium pupils compared to non pupil premium pupils is greater than 20% and there has been a downward trend will be particularly encouraged to attend and two places will be available per school. 
 
Further details and invitations will be circulated via email over the next couple of weeks.
