This year’s Study Day will be held on Thursday 20th June at De Montfort University, Leicester on the theme of Education.

We have two speakers for the day:

  • Our Keynote will be David Laws
    Executive Chairman of the Education Policy Institute and former Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Schools Minister, and Cabinet Office Minister.
  • Twice on the main stage we will have Professor Stephen Heppell  CEO heppell.net  Limited and Felipe Segovia Chair in Learning Innovation at Universidad Camilo José Cela, Madrid. He is described by MacMillan Education as a “renowned expert in education, media, technology and learning environments and by Microsoft as “Europe’s leading online education expert”.

The Study Day is very much a ‘nuts-and-bolts, hands-on’ event with the emphasis on real experiences and lessons learned, so the day is interspersed with workshops and case studies on the following topics with more to follow:

(SPACES holds no responsibility for changes to the workshop programme).

The draft programme for the day can be found here .

In the afternoon of Wednesday 19th June there will be visits to local buildings.

1:45pm visit to George Davies Building , University of Leicester. Designed to minimise environmental impact while providing a pleasant space in which to teach, learn and work, the George Davies Centre is the largest non-residential building in the UK to meet the exacting ‘Passivhaus’ standard.

In the evening there will be informal dinner and drinks at Wygstons House  where there will be an opportunity to network with those staying the night before. The evening is being sponsored by Concertus .

You can find information on Travel and Accommodation here .

There are still opportunities to exhibit so if your company is interested please see the Sponsorship letter here .
