Join Educational Neuroscience researchers in a live discussion on how the science of learning helps us celebrate every child's potential

Join researchers from the Educational Neuroscience Policy Research Centre (ENPRC) at the Bloomsbury Festival for an hour of ideas and open discussion about how the brain learns - and what that means for the way we teach, support and celebrate children's development. ENPRC researchers will each take just five minutes to share a discovery, a question, or a provocation from their work at the frontier of neuroscience and education. Their talks will be followed by a facilitated discussion exploring what "creating and celebrating" learning really looks like in classrooms and communities - with plenty of opportunity for the audience to put their own questions to the panel. Whether you're a teacher, a parent, a fellow researcher or simply curious about the science of learning, come along for a thought-provoking evening that celebrates the creativity behind how young minds grow.
