This conference will harness the insights of public policy experts, educationalists and assessment specialists to make a radical contribution to discussion and critique of issues of control of assessment. This is a timely topic as a Bill to deliver Ofqual, a new regulator of qualifications, is currently going through UK Parliament.
Hosted by the Cambridge Assessment Network, the conference will make a major contribution to thinking in the area.
The conference will include keynote sessions by renowned speakers Professor Robin Alexander, Director of the Cambridge Primary Review and Fellow of Wolfson College at the University of Cambridge, and Professor Alison Wolf, Sir Roy Griffiths Professor of Public Sector Management, King’s College London. Experts including Professor Mary James, Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge; Isabel Nisbet, Ofqual; and Dr John Allan, SQA; will lead a series of seminars on the day.
Leaders from many areas within education are invited to attend, including senior managers from schools, colleges and universities, as well as those working for national and local education bodies, professional organisations, political parties, the media, awarding bodies and employers’ organisations.
Delegates will have opportunities to comment and ask questions during the sessions, to debate issues during their choice of seminar sessions, and to network at lunch and coffee breaks, as well as at the drinks reception at the close of the conference.
