The (Great) Northwestern Study Tour
9th November - 26th November 2026
Embedded Files
A sequence of EdTech Study Tours across the Northwest Region
The sequence of Study EdTech Tours features three EdTech 50 and 4 EdTech hub programme lead schools who are generously opening their doors to show how EdTech has been integrated into their teaching and learning strategy to:
Support high-quality teaching and learning, all day, every day.
Remove barriers to learning
Support pupil voice and enhanced opportunities for self-expression
All visits will include time with members of the SLT and feature contributions from other guest speakers from across the programme
Originally emanating from a request from the Leaders of the East of England EdTech Hub, a series of four consecutive EdTech Study Tours was been created between 17th and 20th March 2026 in the Northwest Hub region. The' Great Western Tour was such a success it has been recreated in November 2026.
