Recruitment methods have changed dramatically over the past 20 years, largely as a result of the technological revolution that we have all been exposed to and which now drives the way that we live and work. It is what it is and that’s good but over reliance on software programmes and “by numbers” assessments that sift and select candidates can mean that employing organisations miss out on outstanding people who, at first glance don’t match with person specifications and/or fail the key word search test used by recruitment software programmes.

Ken and Tim are pleased to be exhibiting again at this conference in conjunction with Central Consultancy and Training.

The Edgbaston Foundation in collaboration with official charity partner St. Basils aim to give fundraising thrill seekers an incredible opportunity to see Edgbaston like never before.

The education landscape has changed dramatically over the past ten years. Academy conversion and the subsequent creation of multi-academy trusts (MATs) have presented leaders in the sector with new opportunities and new challenges. Whilst the focus of the academy sector is still very much on teaching and learning the fact is that academy and MAT leaders are now solely responsible for the wellbeing of students, schools and the overarching business. In short, MAT leaders now have to focus on education as a business, as well as the business of education. Achievement in the classroom and the development of confident young people are compromised if the non-teaching elements of your business are not maximised.

Network Public Sector and Sewell & Wood are on the move to new offices at Hagley Court Hagley Road Edgbaston.

Sewell & Wood were exhibiting for the first time at the Schools and Academies Show this year held at Birmingham NEC.

There's a brand new event about to be added to St Basils Events calendar for February 2019... A sponsored Firewalk!
