Policy Insights Peer Working Group In Person - 10th December

Our Policy Insights peer working group brings together FEA members who are interested in policy and influencing activity that supports fairer educational outcomes for young people.

In December, we're running an in-person session focused on building our Collective Voice to inform our influencing activity in 2027.

Together, we'll identify key opportunities for influence, define our priority asks, and prototype campaign ideas. This interactive workshop will combine contributions from FEA member organisations on policy themes and the craft of influencing, alongside rapid prototyping activities and informal networking opportunities designed to foster connections across the membership.

We'll also be hosting a Christmas drinks reception immediately afterwards, where you can meet members of the FEA Secretariat, as well as participants from the AI Working Group, which will be holding its own in-person event on the same day.

There's no need for any prior policy experience or knowledge. Just bring your curiosity and enthusiasm!
