We were really excited to host our very first art exhibition, ‘Becoming Teacher’ at the conference. Students, tutors and friends contributed poetry, paintings, mannequins, photography and drawings that illustrated, in some way, their teacher journeys so far. Many of the pieces were used for their Cert Ed/PGCE or BA studies, as reflective stimuli or inspiration for individual or collective thinking.
Special thanks to curator David Ball for his help in putting this exhibition together.
