The WiPSCE conference is the premier international venue for school-level computing education research. This year it is being hosted in Cambridge and it's a great opportunity to tack the first CAS meeting of the 2023-24 academic year onto the end of its program!

All teachers (and anybody interested in CAS) are welcome to this meeting, even if you are not Cambridge-based. This is because we know there will be some teachers already attending WiPSCE. So we hope to have a full and vibrant meeting!

The meeting will run from 2:30- 5:00pm and will have a focus on research, as well as time for a bring and share session focused on planning for the new school year.

The timetable will be as follows:

 

Coffee/tea and cake will be available from 2pm onwards
