The ThinkHigher Symposium will be running on Tuesday 16th April 2024, the first we have run, and we have worked closely with some amazing guest speakers, facilitators and colleagues to ensure that it has maximum impact, enjoyment and empowerment. "Reigniting the spark in education: Empowering YOUth," embodies the essence of ThinkHigher – pushing boundaries, challenging mindsets, and empowering us all to be champions for the young people we support.

We will be exploring key themes that resonate with the work we do and opening the conversation up to our audience. The event is completely FREE and we have some amazing resources, books and gifts that we are handing out on the day to support all practitioners in this field and a whole host of networking opportunities.

Hear from Sarah Atkinson, CEO of The Social Mobility Foundation about social class, how we measure and talk about it, and its impact on education and employment outcomes in the UK in terms of student belonging and success. In the second hour, Sarah will then discuss her insights with a panel of Warwick colleagues covering how we can be mindful of the influence of social class on students and seek to mitigate its impact on their experience at Warwick.

A meeting of the Inclusive Assessment Learning Circle. The meeting is open - all members of the Warwick community are welcome to attend.

The meeting will take place online - to receive an invitation, please email Sam Grierson (Samantha.Grierson@warwick.ac.uk) or Kerry Dobbins (Kerry.Dobbins@warwick.ac.uk).
