Keynote speaker | Dr Hali Hughes
Dr Haili Hughes was a teacher and leader in secondary schools for over 15 years and now works in the coaching, mentoring and PD system leadership space, both nationally and internationally. As well as her role as Principal Lecturer at the University of Sunderland, she facilitates the ECF and NPQs for two national providers and leads the English subject content at a SCITT. She has also advised the Department for Education as an ITT Quality Advisor over the last two years.
Haili has completed three Masters degrees and a Doctorate in Education. She is passionate about keeping experienced staff in the classroom who may feel like they are somewhat jaded with the profession. In addition to delivering mentor CPD across the world, she also delivers workshops in schools across the UK, with the most able learners, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds, to raise aspirations and train staff to ensure that they are challenging pupils and developing their pedagogy to meet their needs.
