Initial meeting in this term<\/strong><\/td>\nPhilosophy in Education Network <\/a><\/td>\n <\/p>\n

The University of Kent and the King\u2019s School Canterbury are launching a philosophy in education network<\/strong> for teachers and students in the local area with the aim of promoting the teaching of philosophy in schools. We anticipate that the group might be of interest not only to those currently involved in following or delivering Religious Studies<\/strong> and\/or Philosophy<\/strong> courses but would also be a vehicle through which to encourage the development of philosophical thinking more broadly, as for example part of the University\u2019s Outreach support for the Extended Project Qualification.<\/p>\n
