Collabor8 4 Change at BETT 2012
Russell Prue - Master of Ceremonies
Following the fantastic success of Collabor8 4 Change at BETT 2011 and the recent Collabor8 for Change – Havering we are delighted to launch Collabor8 4 Change BETT 2012. The event will be held on Thursday 12th January 2012 at the Apex Room at Olympia between 6.00pm-9.00pm.
Tickets are available now and going fast, you can also sign-up to facilitate a table discussion, but please get in quick as we aim to have the table discussion sessions ready by the end of December.
Part of the extended family of unconferences, informally related to TeachMeet and TedX, C84C evolved from a need for yet another different approach, which includes table sessions, facilitated by presenters from the floor - be it schools, commercial providers or students, or even over video conference live from another country. Delegates can pick a route through the evening of up to 5 separate sessions, giving thousands of permutations of personalised CPD. We have the fantastic Russell Prue as Keynote and MC for the evening.
Russell wowed the masses at C84C Havering and we are delighted that he has once again agreed to be Master of Ceremonies and provide the opening keynote, laying down a challenge in the current climate to, 'Make your school exciting or a Free School will open next door'.

Sponsorship Opportunities
As a not for profit event, we are aiming to cover costs and have some other exciting opportunities.
We are particularly looking for sponsors for our 'Collabor8 4 Change Scholarships'. This is an exciting new development for this, the fourth Collabor8 4 Change event! These scholarships will take the form of bursaries which schools can apply for to help fund a project. To be eligible, projects will need to be ICT-related, and aim to bring about change through collaboration.
If any potential sponsors are interested in sponsorship opportunities please feel free to contact Nick Madhavji at nickm@joskos.com

We have the fantastic Russell Prue as Keynote and MC for the evening. This is what Russell thought of the recent C84C Havering on 171111 in a recent tweet... "I've seen the future of CPD, it's a C84C event, not from the front, it's collaborative, comfortable and informative #c84c the best I've seen"

The Havering School Improvement Service (Hsis) ICT team.
As ICT Excellence Award Winners, as well as Finalists in the 2012 BETT Awards our core aim is to ensure ICT is a key enabler in driving up and maintaining standards in our schools in the face of a constantly changing environment where there are diminishing and changing budgets. We seek to transform schools, regardless of phase or access to capital investment (new build, remodelled and existing). Our current agenda includes a critical need to update curriculum advice, particularly in primary schools – developing the BETT Award Finalist 'Switched On ICT' with Rising Stars Publishers; constantly shifting e-safeguarding issues; increasing need for a mature view of value for money and total cost of ownership; partnership working between schools, commercial partners, other LAs and national bodies.
The Havering School Improvement Services (Hsis) – the not-for-profit arm of Havering Council's Inspection and Advisory Service – has a long and proud history of supporting schools to bring about continuous and sustained improvement in: Teaching and Learning; Standards and Achievement; Leadership and Management; Curriculum and Assessment. We also add value to schools by supporting their preparations for Ofsted Inspection.
