As the doors of the Business Design Centre (London) closed on the 11th October, the event organisers at the TES Special Educational Needs Show brought an end to yet another incredibly successful exhibition. For many of the visitors this year, the show flew past far too quickly and left us all looking forward to next year’s event already! Here at Badger Learning we had the honour of exhibiting at this year’s event and now we are here to bring you the after show report on all things good at TES SEN 2014!

What is the TES Special Educational Needs Show?

Badger Learning TES SEN 2014

The TES Special Educational Needs Show is the largest special educational needs event in the country, occurring once every year in the autumn season. The event provides a fantastic opportunity for organisations to share and advise on special needs teaching resources, worksheets, lesson plans, teaching ideas and interactive whiteboard techniques. Here you will find plenty of inspiration, advice and information useful for teachers, supporting staff members, parents and carers.

At this year’s show there were no less than 186 exhibitors providing said information and advice, offering plenty of options for visiting parties. Visitors were also able to make the most out of their day by attending any one of the 48 inspiring seminars that took place across the two day event.

At this year’s event we were proud to exhibit at our own stand (number 191) located on the mezzanine upper level. We’d like to take this opportunity to thank all those who managed to see us across the two days; we fully appreciate having the chance to share knowledge with other like-minded individuals and of course to get feedback and suggestions for new resources.  We were extremely pleased to see so many people.

Some of the main products we spoke about over the show included Teen Reads III, WOW! Facts and Graphic Novels. Conversations regarding Teen Reads were extremely positive, with our banner attracting a lot of attention from the crowds. Visitors also made very positive comments about the range of different subjects covered by our WOW! Facts series.

Whilst at the show, we were also visited by two of our very own authors – Tommy Donbavand and Beverly Sanford! They popped by to say hello and made use of their social media channels to let all of their followers know we were there! Beverly Sanford was particularly interested in our stall as we were displaying her title, ‘The Wishing Doll.’ Overall, the event was a huge success for Badger Learning and once again we would like to thank all those who came to speak to us across the two days!
