We're delighted to be attending The Sociological Review’s Undisciplining II conference, 10 – 12 September, in Salford. Our sociology subject advisor, Tom, will be participating in a fireside chat on Weds 11 September, 4.30pm – 6pm. The discussion will explore how the sociological imagination can be incorporated into the A Level curriculum. It will also cover how schools and colleges can collaborate more closely with higher education. Teachers can currently access special rate tickets to attend on 11 September: £50 for the full day or £20 for the afternoon. Tom's chat will also be livestreamed on YouTube, so you can watch from wherever works best for you: https://bit.ly/3S2gKHG.
