Regional face-to-face seminars

Bookings now open for 2026 regional PSHE seminars

This June, our annual series of face-to-face regional PSHE seminar events return for their forth year running — with a programme that's our biggest and best yet. Taking place throughout June in nine cities across England, each event includes a keynote from us, two practical workshops covering key PSHE/RSHE priorities, and a wealth of engaging lesson ideas to take back to the classroom. You'll also have the chance to connect with other local PSHE professionals working in similar contexts to you.

We've now announced the full agenda and timings for the day, plus full details for both workshops — view these below.

Each seminar runs from 1:30-5pm, with all venues based centrally in the relevant city and near a train station and/or paid parking. Places are £99 per person.

*We're running a brand new seminar location date this year for PSHE colleagues based in the central south and coastal region of England, including Bournemouth, Southampton, Portsmouth, Brighton, Worthing, Eastbourne, Hastings, East Sussex and the Isle of Wight.

Full workshop details

Delegates will have the opportunity to attend both workshops on the day, led by our Subject Specialist team — the national subject experts for PSHE education.

Workshop 1 — From vision to classroom: How to build a skilled, confident teaching team

There's no better PSHE investment your school can make than supporting your whole team to teach the subject effectively and safely. This session is packed with achievable strategies and quick wins for upskilling your teaching staff in time for September's RSHE changes — while laying the foundations for lasting, sustainable impact.

Workshop 2 — 50 ideas in 50 minutes: Teaching the new statutory content

A fast-paced, interactive workshop full of practical, engaging and adaptable teaching approaches and lesson activities for some of the newer, more challenging areas of statutory RSHE content — including misogyny, AI, deepfakes, personal safety, and consent.

About our regional seminars

Regional networks are key to raising the standards of PSHE education, including RSHE, and sharing best practice. Every summer, we hold 8 regional face-to-face PSHE seminars across England.

Uniquely different to our other training and events, our PSHE seminars aim to encourage and grow regional networks where members can share local knowledge and experiences, discuss key topics, ask questions, and make connections with other PSHE colleagues in their region. We will also have a chance to learn about your priority PSHE/RSHE issues and challenges, so we can best support you. 

Our face-to-face regional seminars form a key part of our wider regional programme, supporting schools and local authorities across England. We gather member insights, data trends, and feedback from local training to help you strengthen PSHE practice in your context. Read more about our regional programme including how we can support you and your schools locally.
