Primary Futures Project launches today at the Birmingham Library


I am delighted to be one of the launch speakers for the Primary Futures Project launching at Birmingham University today and following on from my recent talks in Wolverhampton and Tipton.

This is a project, available to all primary schools, working under the banner of the highly successful 'Inspiring the Future' programme to develop effective, innovative approaches which will allow schools to easily engage volunteers to work in schools supporting children.

The aim is to support the raising of standards for all, widen the horizons and aspirations of primary age children with regards to their own futures and foster the love of reading and numeracy.

The Primary Futures project is led by the National Association of Headteachers in partnership with the Inspiring the Future charity on behalf of The Education and Employers Taskforce which enables everyone from firefighters to zoologists, engineers to doctors, to go into state schools to talk with pupils.
