COVID-19 NEWS: Workshop events will be virtual until December 2021

As a result of the on-going uncertainty regarding COVID-19 restrictions all our workshop events up to and including December 2021 will be run as virtual events.

The dates and approximate timings will be as for the face to face events.

Category 1

Category 1 workshops are intended as introductory workshops for those who are new to the teaching of the subject as part of the IB Diploma. It is possible that those attending category 1 workshops are experienced teachers of the subject but have not yet taught it as part of the IB Diploma.

Category 1 workshops are thus likely to be attended by teachers who are:

new to the IB Diploma
