ExpertEdLive - The development of our online presence.

Over 4000 children and 50 schools from 4 local area partnerships have accessed live content from ExpertEdLive including Q&A with our patron, Professor Lord Winston.

An inspirational new outreach programme to bring expertise from workplaces and academia LIVE! into your classroom. Our resources and speakers will enrich lessons and inspire children of all backgrounds to pursue the life and career opportunities available to them.

The development of our online presence continues to grow as we explore new means of connecting with schools and families.

Aims

ExpertEd is a free resource using three different, cross-curricular strands to engage with all pupils, regardless of background or ability, from age 9 to 13.

Background

Inspiration for ExpertEd stemmed from an online Q&A event with Professor Lord Winston which Oundle shared with the OPEN Learning Partnership. Over 1,000 children subsequently accessed the talk, leading to the exploration of such an online medium to bring experts in their field to children around the country.

Impact

“Our hope is that experted will support schools with developing cultural capital among pupils from less privileged backgrounds and open doors to speakers with a wide variety of expertise, totally free of charge.” Deputy Head Partnerships and Outreach
