Annual conference 2008 — Achieving excellence, with additional support

Our eighth annual conference took place at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow on Thursday 28th February 2008.  Excellent speakers, interactive workshops and participative delegates combined to make what proved to be a very successful and thought-provoking day.

Resources from the conference:

Annual conference 2007 — Making transitions work

Enquire's seventh annual conference Making transitions work was held on 9 February 2007 in Edinburgh. The conference explored the skills, attitudes and approaches necessary to support pupils’ learning during change. Changes included moving between schools, interrupted education and leaving school. The conference also looked at existing good practice and issues and solutions in making transitions work.

The Education (Additional Support for Learning) (Scotland) Act 2004 introduced new duties for transition planning for changes in pupils’ education. This conference provided an opportunity for everyone involved in the education of children and young people with additional support needs to learn more about managing transitions successfully.
