Can you believe it's October already? With the autumn term well underway, we're excited to share with you all that is happening at the UCL Institute of Education and beyond.
Last year we launched a debate series called What if...? radical and inspiring ideas for alternative education futures, which brings together a range of speakers on education issues - from policy makers to academics, practitioners to parents - to hear their views on key debates in the field.
Last week, we kicked off the series with a look at young people's mental health and well-being - asking What if...we wanted our kids to be happier? You can watch the video recording or listen to the podcast here, then follow and join the conversation on Twitter.
In November, we'll be addressing the important matter of testing and assessment, asking What if...we re-designed our school testing and assessment system from scratch? We would love to hear your views, and we do hope you can join us or tune in via the live stream.
