What do you think makes a good education?

Cambridge Assessment, the Association of Colleges and the Association of School and College Leaders will once again be collaborating during the autumn Party Political conference season


This year’s fringe events, taking place at Liberal Democrat, Labour and Conservative party conferences, will focus on the theme of ‘What do you think makes a good education?’ They will provide an important opportunity to consider some of the issues at the very heart of education policy – including the role of vocational and academic routes and the make-up of the curriculum.


Panel members will include representatives from each of the three organisations, as well as political party spokespeople. Details for the fringe events are below:
