Good day and enjoyed table 5 discussions very much. Lots of positives and realistic ideas as well as concerns discussed. Plenty of time for conversations which were entered into by everyone at the table making good contributions. Well worth collecting all the ideas from days like these and sharing them on the blog. Until the next time!

Fantastic experience! Learned so much from the varied and innovative practice being shared across the pre-school and primary sectors. All of the Heads and Managers I spoke with said they were welcoming CfE hugely and saw it as a much needed and long awaited opportunity for children and staff. Most of the comments were around expressions of staff feeling CfE was providing them with a licence to revisit, challenge and change habitual patterns of practice and that this was very exciting in itself.
