IAPS National Geography Conference 2026

 IAPS National Geography Conference

Peter King, who co-ordinates geography activity for the IAPS, has moved the date of the annual geography conference to Thursday 21 May 2026. This gives more time for people to book onto the event.

It will still be held at the lovely location of Beeston Hall on the north Norfolk coast, so we can take advantage of our location in the afternoon with a session on fieldwork led by Jon Cannell (Geographical Association).

The morning session will include a talk from Alan Parkinson (that’s me)…. (author, head of geography at King’s Ely Prep and Vice President: Education of the Royal Geographical Society) who will talk about curriculum development and Peter King will plan to share some ideas that have accelerated and improved learning in the classroom.

Here’s the title slide of my slide deck for my workshop. It will be modelled on my GeoLincs session from today.

We plan to kick off the day at 9.30am and finish around 4pm.

The cost of the day is £199 for IAPS members and £250 for non-member schools.
