Economics Teacher National Conference 2013
Monday 24 June 2013: Henry Wellcome Auditorium, Euston Road, Central London
The speaker programme for the Economics Teacher National Conference 2013 is now available - and what a day it promises to be! We've put together what we hope you'll agree is a wonderful programme combined with a simply unbeatable delegate rate!
Let's face it - there has never been a better time to be an economics teacher and our subject continues to thrive and grow. The Economics Teacher National Conference 2013 comes at the end of another challenging school year - the idea way for colleagues to step away from exams and focus on the subject alone.
Bookings can be made using this online form
We've decided on a change of venue for 2013 - just over the other side of the Euston Road at the stunning Henry Wellcome Auditorium. This is a slightly smaller venue than the British Library, but one that is also steeped in history. The capacity is just 150 seats, so please book as soon as possible for you and your departmental colleagues in order to secure some of the remaining places.
The delegate rates for the day, which include lunch, refreshments and some other goodies (!) are:
Single delegate - £150 (+VAT)
Departmental Deal - £100 each (+VAT) for two or more colleagues from the same school or college.
[note: you individuals can also obtain the departmental deal if they also come to the Business Teacher National Conference on the following day!)
In 2012 160 Economics Teachers joined us for the conference - you can read a report on the day here.
