Hi All, So many cool announcements, here's one from PyCon UK[1] who just announced their Education Track.
Anyone heading to PyCon UK[1] this year? It's on Friday 18th - Monday 21st September 2015 at Coventry. [1] http://www.pyconuk.org/ Cheers, /// Vicky about.me/whykay [image: Vicky Lee on about.me] <http://about.me/whykay> === BEGIN MESSAGE === A quick heads up: today we're announcing the fourth annual PyCon UK education track today. Details can be here: http://www.pyconuk.org/education/ Register here: http://www.pyconuk.org/register/ Are you a teacher? Do you know any teachers..? Teacher's continuing professional development day is on Friday 18th September. Thanks to the generous sponsorship of Bank of America (again) it only costs £50 for a teacher's conference ticket (not including conference meal). Can't get time off school? Not a problem - we (literally) have you covered: we have £200 bursaries for schools who send teachers so they can recover the cost of a supply teacher. We'll provide details for how to obtain the bursary when you attend the conference. Who's taking part? The Raspberry Pi Foundation education team, Jam Packed, teaching colleagues and professional Python programmers will all be contributing workshops. You'll also get a chance to mix and collaborate with the wider conference attended by the UK's most talented Python developers. The kids' day will be on Saturday 19th September. We aim to run various workshops aimed at young beginner Pythonistas throughout the day. These will include web design, robotics, Minecraft and physical computing. Our aim is to turn excited kids into exhausted but inspired proto-programmers. :-) The cost is only £5 per child and parents/guardians get in for free. Lunch will be provided. You only need to bring an open mind and a sense of adventure!
