NAPCE was founded in 1982 to establish links between education professionals and allied agencies who have an interest in pastoral care and personal-social education and the welfare of students of all ages in schools. The association has an annual conference, a journal with current research and excellent practice in pastoral education, and an annual awards event to celebrate the outstanding achievements of pastoral care staff and institutions across the education sector. A number of our Associates work in schools which have been finalists for the awards.

In this EduKIT Jill will consider what makes the most effective practice, highlight innovative work and open discussion for participants to bring their own experiences to the event.
