Courses & Conferences

IAPS is committed to offering a range of excellent professional development opportunities, designed to cover the important current issues facing independent prep schools.

We aim to provide and deliver the best value and quality at all our events and are particularly grateful to the team of  IAPS subject advisers for their expertise and contribution to the Courses & Conferences programme.

We continue to receive excellent feedback from delegates on our courses as a whole and comments are always welcome and valuable to us as we reflect, plan and prepare future courses. We hope that you find this year's programme of events beneficial and relevant.

In addition, we are proud to continue working with Anspear with the IAPS Digital Academy. This online training scheme follows the success of the previous ilearning programme and offers outstanding value for money. We hope schools will continue to benefit from the the unique tools it offers for managing and planning individual and school professional development. In addition, the Digital Academy allows the integratation of personal and group training to assist with achieving departmental and school-wide development plans and targets.

We are delighted to have a full courses and conferences programme for the 2024/25 academic year. We understand the flexibility that online provision gives to member schools but also recognise that one of the fundamental benefits of an in-person course is the ability to network with like-minded colleagues and as a result we have a blended programme with a mixture of in-person day courses and shorter online courses. We are delighted to keep the cost of an in-person course at £229 for the 7th year running and we have also expanded our course provision hosted in member schools at a reduced price ticket of £199. If your school is interested in hosting a course then please contact us for more details.

If you have any queries, the IAPS Courses and Conferences team is always here to help - please get in touch via [email protected].
