IOE DEdPsy Bedford Way Seminar 2026

Join us for a Bedford Way Seminar organised by the IOE DEdPsy programme to explore how our professional assumptions, language and models of practice can unintentionally individualise systemic and social harm, and how we might begin to rebalance this through more relational, community‑linked and preventative ways of working.

The session would draw on:

• reflections on identity, positionality and power in EP practice
• the limits of casework‑only approaches (necessary but insufficient)
• principles from community psychology, decolonising perspectives and relational practice
• practical examples from emerging community‑linked models of EP work, including co‑production with families, schools and grassroots organisations

This event is particularly relevant for Educational Psychologists, trainees, tutors, and others interested in socially just and community-oriented approaches to practice.

Date: Thursday 2nd July 2026
Time: 3pm - 5pm
Location: Jeffery Hall, IOE - 20 Bedford Way W1CH 0AL
