The Big INSET: Effective Assessment, Adaptive Teaching & Quality Education

We are once again running a ‘Big INSET’ day that primary schools can attend at the beginning of the Spring term 2026. 

The themes for the day will be Assessment for Learning and Adaptive Teaching – both critical elements in the Ofsted Framework and areas that continue to be highlighted as areas for improvement.  

The conference will include a key-note talk focused on the core themes of the day, which will include practical ideas for the classroom, as well as updates arising from the Curriculum & Assessment Review and the new Ofsted way of working. There will be a variety of subject-specific workshops, including core and foundation subjects, SEND and Early Years. There will also be opportunities for networking and for school staff to work together during the day.
