Amar Latif and Bennie Kara Speak at EY Conference

St Christopher's Trust were delighted to welcome Amar Latif and Bennie Kara to speak at our annual Early Years Conference. This year the theme was Equality, Education and Diversity.

Amar Latif was inspirational, sharing his story of incredible achievement, overcoming seemingly impossible challanges. He taught us to see obstacles as opportunities with 'grumpy faces'.

Bennie Kara helped us to make our thinking and our curriculums more diverse. Bennie's practical, well researched ideas will make an instant impact in our schools.

In the afternoon Bennie ran workshops for our leaders whilst, David Weatherly, a true expert in developing humanities in schools, worked with our EYFS teachers to unpick culture, heritage and diversity in our Early Years.

Here is Jo Evans, our CEO, in coversation with Amar:
