Teaching is an increasingly important aspect of our role and we need to become leaders in this area if we are to justify our existence!’ ‘…a good opportunity to reflect on teaching - it's all too easy to stagnate unless you go to things like this every so often.’ ‘An excellent idea and I hope it will encourage everyone to continue to share good ideas, best practice and resources.’
