Will you be joining us at the Geographical Association’s Annual Conference?
We are delighted to be sponsoring this year's Geographical Association (GA) Annual Conference and Exhibition 2023.
Hosted by the Geographical Association, this event is a great opportunity to network with other delegates and exhibitors, whilst gaining knowledge and ideas, and help increase confidence when teaching Geography.
Commenting on our sponsorship is our AS/A Level Geography Subject Officer, Erin Roberts: “The GA has become a key event for the teaching community. Each conference covers a variety of engaging and relevant topics, which will aid and enhance the teaching of the subject. We look forward to meeting delegates face-to-face and providing them with additional support and guidance to deliver our subjects with confidence.”
