NABSS CONFERENCE 2013
“A Great way to learn”
SEVILLE 7-10th MARCH 2013
Hotel Melía Sevilla
Dr.Pedro de Castro,1, 41004 SEVILLA The National Association of British Schools in Spain will hold its 35th Annual Conference
from 7th to 10th of March 2013 in Seville.
UK Trade and Investment (UKTI) and the British Embassy will once again support NABSS in the organisation of the conference and in our joint Education Village. The programme will commence with our Gala Dinner for Heads, Owners and Guests, an ideal introduction to our event and to the delights of Seville. The following day, which is dedicated to heads and owners of schools, will include the opening ceremony and tour of the Education Village followed by presentations from key speakers from both the Department for Education and the Spanish Ministry of Education. Thereafter, there will be an interesting programme of professional development for senior leaders and teachers, ensuring that we are well informed and kept up‐to‐
date with the latest developments, reforms and trends in education. At the same time, authorised representatives of member schools will attend the Annual General Meeting. The exhibition has always formed an integral part of our conference and, once again, together with UKTI, we shall present our “Education Village”, where we will welcome those companies which have staunchly supported us over the years, and also the new companies which may be joining us for the first time. The annual conference provides ample opportunity for networking, and social events this year will include our gala dinner, a tour of Seville, buffet lunches and coffee breaks in the exhibition area, cocktails and the presentation of awards ceremony. The venue chosen for this event is the Hotel Meliá Sevilla, which provides comfortable accommodation and excellent conference facilities with attractive space for all of our activities. For those who find the time, there is also a spa for relaxation! We urge you to mark the dates in your diary and make sure to reserve your room as early as possible. A hotel reservation form is attached. PROGRAMME
