UK Screening of the film 'We are Teachers'


On Tuesday 30th June we held the UK screening of the film 'We are Teachers' at Mary Ward House in London. We were delighted to be able to share the film with such a broad audience made up of academics, policy makers, education specialists, PV practitioners and students. Thank you to those who came!




If you'd like to watch the film again, or share with colleagues, you can find it at the following links:
