About the Webinars

The sessions will take an open Q&A format with a chance to create some next steps if you want to take your learning community idea further. You will be provided with a worksheet in advance to take notes and a chance to share your thoughts and next steps at the end of the session (if you want to).

If you have questions for the speakers but can’t make the live events, you can sign up and send your questions to alex@limitlesscommunity.co.uk – they will get asked in the session and the recording will be sent to you afterwards.


Future Events

The next webinar series, launching on 4th October 2023, will give you the opportunity to meet the founders of full-time registered schools. Registration details coming soon!
