'Education fit for the future: planning for a changing world'

The Cambridge Schools Conference 2015 was hosted at Robinson College on 13–15 September 2015. Delegates were encouraged to join together with other teachers from around the world to explore how teaching assessment, learning spaces (real and virtual) and leadership will need to evolve in order to enhance student learning in the future. 

There was an exciting and interesting range of high-profile keynote presentations from Professor Gordon Stobart, Emeritus Professor of Education, Institute of Education, University College London, and Professor Stephen Heppell, CEO of Heppell.net, and Professor of The Felipe Segovia Chair of Learning Innovation at Universidad Camilo José Cela, Madrid, and Professor and Chair in New Media Environments at the Centre for Excellence in Media Practice, Bournemouth University.
