Geography Champions

On Thursday, I am off to the Royal Geographical Society for a training event for Primary Geography Champions.
This is a new project, co-ordinated by the Geographical Association as part of the Action Plan for Geography.

A number of regional champions have been appointed, and will work to set up networks for their local area, and hope to join up coverage.

There is still time to apply for the next tranche of appointments.

Does this sound like you ?

Are you:

• Passionate about geography as a subject and about the teaching and learning of quality primary geography?
• Enthusiastic about leading and developing existing or new networks of primary teachers?
  
• Familiar with the aims of the Action Plan for Geography (APG) and the values of the Geographical Association?

Why not get in touch if so....

Benefits include:

Freedom to identify your local agenda and needs A free start up pack of geography resource materials Free entry to the GA annual Conference £180 per day to cover preparation and administration time used on the project Free CPD and opportunities for accreditation  Access to a dedicated networking website  Additional funding for special events

Here's the title slide for my little contribution: an introduction to using NING networks to keep in touch with network members. 

I've put together a new USER GUIDE, and a brief introduction to networks.
