However, it was good to see a community of inquiry in action and Will Ord is a very good presenter. His web site  http://www.thinkingeducation.co.uk  has some downloadable resources and several of them were used on the day.

Katie, who is an NQT, found the course incredibly useful and has gone away with lots of new ideas and the determination to try them out. The INSET was offered by Osiris (www.osiriseducational.co.uk)
