Today has been a real pleasure. I have attended inspirational sessions & feel hopeful for the future of philosophy provision in schools. The APT is an excellent initiative which will enable philosophy teachers to network, share best practice & fight for their subject. Thank you!
Our director of #P4C @gracelockrobin is sharing strategies for having conceptual conversations in secondary schools at the APT (Association of Philosophy Teachers). Here @drangiehobbs defends the value of a philosophical education.
