On 12th October 2021, primary school leaders from across the country met in Coventry for the ‘Leading a Whole Education at Primary’ 2021/22 launch event.
The day featured a series of fantastic keynote sessions from Hannah Wilson, Rachel Tomlinson from Barrowford School and Dr Harriet Marshall from LYFTA. WE also heard from St Peter’s CE Junior School, St Hilary’s Primary School and Manor Park Primary School who shared their ‘Leading a Whole Education at Primary’ project from last year.
These are some of our favourite tweets from the ‘Leading a Whole Education at Primary’ launch event:

@WholeEducation conference, grounding and reflective start to the day with @Ethical_Leader reflecting on our values, leadership culture and cultural intelligence. The purpose of what we do…

@Ethical_Leader now is the time to reconnect to our core purpose. Time to question how we were working and what we can do better #purpose @WholeEducation

Lovely to hear Carmella Reece talk about the learning journey of St Peter’s CE Junior driven by questions like ‘what does life in all its fullness look like’ & question in image below. Beautiful comment from one recent visitor after changes saying ‘the school has come to life’ pic.twitter.com/MJm5uUYrGX

Days like these are a great double edged sword. Great for ideas but trying to then filter the now, tomorrow, next month and possibly sometime ideas is hard. Thank @WholeEducation 🤯🤔

‘Good humanising’, ‘learn to love, love to learn’ & seeing experiences through the different lenses of different children.. & lots of fab thought points on purpose in education & neuroscience (+links to #sustainability).
