This Early Years Conference 2020, co-organisedwith the Council of British International School (COBIS) aims to gather early years educators together to learn from our workshop leads and the world renowned, Dr Julie Fisher.During the conference, around 150 educators worldwide will gather together to discuss their practices in their regions. For instance, teachers from international schools in East China, the Middle East and Europe as well as teaching staff from different school campuses across Wellington Colleges China will come along and explorethe current focus in their classroom teaching, educational leadership in the early years and how the strategic focus of our schools is adapting to meet the needsof international and multilingual children and families.
We are incredibly lucky to have Dr Julie Fisher delivering not only our keynote speech but also Master classes across the 2 days to explore what is meant by “effective” adult-child interactions. She will consider the role of the adult in both adult-initiated and child-initiated situations, both indoors and out, with groups of childrenand with individual learners. Through the use of DVD footage from her own research and others, delegates will have the opportunity to reflect on their own teaching and the quality of the practice for which they are responsible. Dr Julie Fisher will open the event with a keynote speech on how the early years of learning underpin all that is to follow.
The keynote will draw a unique analogy between the foundations of buildings and the foundations of learning and crystallises the necessity for both to be strong, flexible and deep for,otherwise, it is very expensive to underpin them later in a child`s educational career. ‘Interacting or Interfering?’ (2016)As a well-known and respected author whose books include ‘Starting fromthe Child’ (4th edition 2013); ‘The Foundations of Learning’ (2002); ‘Moving Onto Key Stage One’ (2010) and ‘Interacting or Interfering?’ (2016), she will draw on her various research projects in early years education and encourage us to implement the results in our context.Key issues she will address are:
1. To follow, there will be a series of inspirational workshops during the two-day event such as: Mindfulness and how it links to In the Moment and responsive planning,2. The Wonder Wall approach and the use of provocations and invitations to support individual children`s interests,3. Forest Beach schools and real outdoor learning4.
