The AV1 Inclusion Network brings together local authorities, schools, and education professionals from across the region to share experiences, outcomes, and best practice in supporting pupils through AV1. Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from guest speakers, connect with peers, and explore how AV1 is helping to improve inclusion, attendance, and wellbeing for young people unable to attend school in person.

Venue: Central location near Birmingham New Street Station
