Be part of our Community Focused Schools Conference

The Curriculum for Wales aims to ensure equity in education, supporting all young people to overcome barriers and reach their full potential. While schools play a central role, collaboration with families, communities, and external services can create a more powerful support system for students.
Join us for a Community Focused Schools conference and discover how they transform schools into hubs where educators, local community members, families, and students all play a part in creating the best conditions for learning and development.
This one-day conference will feature:
Keynote Speakers:
Lee Elliott Major, Professor of Social Mobility, University of Exeter
Michelle Dolan, Deputy Principal, St Louis Secondary School, Dundalk, Ireland
You’ll also gain insights from case studies and best practices shared by schools and Local Authorities from across West Wales.
Who should attend? This event is designed for teachers, school leaders, and organisations who wish to find out more about Community Focused Schools and:
- build a strong partnership with families
