Whether you're already teaching or are beginning to explore becoming a teacher, you're invited to our Edge Hill University taster event at Holy Cross College and University Centre on Wednesday 5th March (4-6pm).

Speakers at the taster event will explore mental health and wellbeing and Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) for children and young people in education.

It's a great place to start exploring these key issues in education today, with Edge Hill tutors delivering these free sessions to help give you an overview.

Holy Cross began its association with Edge Hill in 2008 and since then, the partnership has gone from strength to strength.

Edge Hill University is thriving and growing and is recognised regionally and nationally as a centre of excellence in teaching and learning.
