An Evening With Clare Williams
Key Note Speaker on ‘Pupil Voice’
7.30pm - 8.15pm
Monday 27th July 2009
Recognising the Importance of Pupil Participation in the Learning Context.
Are our pupils’ voices really heard? Do we know how they feel about their learning;
are they active in the learning process? How do we really empower pupils to fully
participate within the school community?
Clare began her teaching career in the East London Borough of Newham.
After four years teaching KS2 pupils she became an advisory teacher in a Teachers Centre in
Tanzania, East Africa, where she set up a training cycle of workshops and outreach work in the
local schools.
On returning to Newham she became an Advisory Teacher with the Borough’s Behaviour Support and Advisory Team. In 2004 she qualified as an Educational Psychotherapist, and completed her MA in Therapeutic Education in 2007.
