Resilience, Equity and Inclusion in Education

Hosted by SWIFT and Being Luminary, this is a unique event that invites school leaders, policymakers, and educators in the South West to engage with fresh thinking on resilience, equity and inclusion in education.

Through a spirit of possibility, a dash of ingenuity, and bags of creativity, the conference will explore how to make meaningful progress on issues that too often feel intractable.

Resilience, equity and inclusion will be considered for those on the fringes of our schools and how rural, coastal, and small-school settings shape both the challenges and opportunities for inclusion in the South West.

School Leaders, teachers and Diversity Equity and Inclusion leads and champions.
