* This is happening today - Wednesday, 12th August! *
A couple of weeks ago, one of our teachers - Tony Hall - suggested a regular School of Everything meetup in London. We thought this was a great idea, so this morning, Tony and I will be hosting the first meetup at the Southbank Centre.
We'll be there from 10.30 to 12.30, in the Foyer of the Royal Festival Hall. As Tony says on the forums, there are lots of ways this could develop:
For me that would mean just taking my work down there and going mobile for the morning. Other teachers and learners, or anyone interested could come along and have open discussions about learning and teaching and School of Everything.
This can be a completely open forum. As long as it is a regular place and time people will eventually come along, bring other people with them, and become involved in big discussions and specific conversations.
So if you're in London and you want to join us, come along for coffee and conversation. Feel free to bring your work, your kids or anything else that seems appropriate.
If you come into the Royal Festival Hall from the terrace above the river, we'll be in the main foyer area, past the bar and to the left hand side of the ballroom floor. I'll bring the big orange furry Every Thing, so look out for that - or, if you really can't find us, call me on 07810 650213.

great idea but could it be evenings sometimes?
Can we have one in Birmingham please?
Stephanie - an evening meetup is definitely a good idea! Want to help get one started? Maybe it could be once or twice a month, rather than weekly like the one Tony's doing?
Audrey - absolutely! Once we've got the London one going, we'll write up a "how to..." about what we've learned and see what we can do to help people start them in other cities. I know there are lots of great social media folks in Birmingham who've been big supporters of School of Everything, so hopefully some of them will be up for getting involved.
