What to EXPECT

"Computing: Probably the most exciting technology in the world!"

• Looking for inspiration to breathe more life into your lessons?
• Are you frustrated by current opportunities for teaching Computing within ICT?
• Do you struggle to find dynamic resources to engage your pupils?
• Do you wish to enhance your own skills?

The new Programme of Study has emphasised Computer Science as a core element of the newly branded 'Computing'.  The CAS Conference provides an ideal opportunity to find out about these changes and learn from experienced teachers and lecturers about how to introduce computer science in to your classroom.

The conference will have its usual mix of plenary sessions, over 30 different workshops, the opportunity to network and take home practical examples of lessons and other resources that you can use in your classroom.  

Join us, for a unique opportunity to hear from practising teachers and educators about developing computing in our schools. One of the highlights will be the poster exhibition where teachers will share how they are introducing computing into their classrooms.

Come and share your ideas and experience!
