Spring Term Session: Boys will be… BRILLIANT! with Gary Wilson
How can we support boys effectively and help to raise their achievement?
In this session Gary will outline the issues around boys' underachievement and what can be done about it, both in school/settings and out. There will be time for questions and sharing too.
You will leave with a fuller understanding of the issues surrounding boys' underachievement and practical steps that you can take to help boys achieve.
