Dear SEDA colleagues Those of you who are National Teaching Fellows will already have been informed about our NTF annual symposium on 21-22nd March at the Burlington Macdonald hotel in Birmingham and indeed many of you have booked to come. Any SEDA colleagues who are not NTFs are welcome to register for Day two which is open to all.Our theme for the day is Playful learning and the event promises to be a really great opportunity to play, learn and network. One of the workshops led by me and other NTFs will be for people who might want in the future to apply for one and would like to know what the features of successful applications look like ? if you would like to come, the booking link is https://my.heacademy.ac.uk/events/book-event/?eventid=e362921a-0ecc-e511-ba27-00505689cc9e? We have been very encouraged by the take up of bookings to date but please note bookings close this Friday, so if you plan to come, your really do need to do it in the next two days!? Best wishes Sally Brown NTF, PFHEA, SFSEDA Emerita Professor, Leeds Beckett University Visiting Professor at University of Plymouth, Liverpool John Moores University and University of South Wales
