Going to Conferences

I think that it is very important to get out of your school, as often as possible, to go to speak to others teachers.

Obviously, IGCSE and IB subject workshops are important, but sitting down with a total stranger in the more open environment of a conference can lead to some amazing conversations, and exchange of ideas.
