Open Events
Beyond his long-term work with schools, James regularly shares his insights at major conferences and online events. Although many of these are private bookings for specific networks, James also hosts a variety of sessions open to the wider teaching community.
The best way to join these public conversations is through our PD-OD platform, where James hosts monthly webinars and ‘Ask James’ events for subscribers and guests alike. If you miss any of these events, then the recordings are available in the members library.
