Want to run your own network?
We are looking for enthusiastic geography teachers to set up and run CPD networks in their local area. The RGS-IBG will provide full support, ensuring minimal administration for you. If you are interested in setting something up or would like the RGS-IBG to support a network you are already running please email Claire at c.wheeler@rgs.org or call 020 7591 3053.
