Looking back at this last academic year, we asked our Head of Education & Training @MissCMayers what her favourite webinars had been:
"One of my absolute favourite webinars from this year was a Lumio session at the end of April. I was going solo as Olivia was at a school delivering after-school training. Important to note, we always use our shared training accounts during training/webinars (spoiler alert: we don't anymore...have a watch and you’ll see why!). The recording definitely captures the moment my face went from 'all good' to 'wait, what?!' That little unplanned hiccup actually became the most spontaneous demonstration of how versatile @LumioSocial is, and a great #ForeverLearning moment for us.
Oh and it was also a truly global affair, with the wonderful team from Delta Waters in Botswana joining us – yes, Botswana!"

Looking back at this last academic year, we asked our Head of Education & Training @MissCMayers what her favourite webinars had been:
"Okay, after our Lumio escapade (coming in the next post), another firm favourite from this year – and honestly, it's tough to pick just one, because it might sound a bit sad, but I genuinely enjoy our webinars! – was 'AI in Action: Practical Strategies for Schools'. This one was hot off the press; earlier on the same day, we'd hosted an AI event organised by Craig/@LiftSchools, giving me the perfect chance to hear directly from school leaders and teachers on the ground.
It was brilliant to learn how they're navigating this fast-moving landscape, reinforcing that we can't bury our heads in the sand as students are already using these tools! Our training focuses on sharing practical strategies to help schools make the most of the tech they have."

A great listen 🤩 (well it was great recording it but listening to myself back still seems to wrong 🙉)
Find out all about 'Portsmouth: The Digital City Project' and the wonderful things going on - let me know what you think!
💡 EdTech Perspectives Season 2 Episode 2 is here - bringing together voices from throughout education to get their views on the role technology plays in modern day teaching, learning and school management.
🚀 In this powerful episode, @MissCMayers dives into Portsmouth: The Digital City Project - a city-wide digital transformation built not just on strategy, but on relationships. Co-hosted by project lead Gemma Gwilliam and featuring the full team behind the initiative, the episode explores how effective collaboration between Technology Advisors and teachers has been central to its success. At its core is a shared belief: choosing the right tool, for the right child, at the right time - and ensuring no child is left behind. This is an honest, practical, and inspiring look at how digital change really happens when people work together with purpose.
