          DELEGATES

        INFORMATION FOR DELEGATES
        Thank you for volunteering your time and expertise. Pupils and parents from all years, but especially 2nds to U6th, are invited to attend. They will ask you questions face to face- often these will be quite specific and very direct, so there is every chance to share your enthusiasm for your profession or role.

        If there is any promotional literature you wish to offer them, please do so, but we ask that you do not inconvenience yourself.


        TIMETABLE FOR DELEGATES
        5- 6pm Delegates arrive at EDM Foyer; pupils will be at hand to assist your preparation. Refreshments available. Parking is available on site around the EDM.
        6pm Convention opens.
        9pm Convention closes.
        Please do not feel you have to stay for the whole evening; an hour of your time and expertise is invaluable for our pupils.
