Introduction


 * The Boutique Education Conference 2011.**

While visiting a couple of Auckland Schools at the end of term 2 with a Professional learning Group, I heard one of the Principals talking about the value of a small annual 'conference group' that he was part of.

The idea was a small group of diverse and far flung Principals holding their own conference, where they shared current, practical ideas for school improvement, networked and were challenged to think in new and innovative ways.

The Conference is limited to **12** Principals and I have intentionally invited people from a wide geographic area and range of schools (sizes and deciles). I am sure that you are feeling the same sort of creative tension I am at the moment.... but that's a good thing!

This site will give you updated information and also be the storage point for as much of the ideas and materials developed from the 2011 event.

If you have any questions or comments, please be in contact.
