The Association now represents over 4,000 professionals in the field including advisory head teachers, directors and managers of children’s services, school improvement and early years advisers, education welfare officers, 14-19 coordinators, heads of Sure Start, OfSTED Inspectors, parent partnership staff and self-employed consultants – the key advisers and managers in Education.

ASPECT members are based throughout the UK and work across a broad range of sectors serving the interests of all children and young people, including the public, private, faith, voluntary and community sectors.

ASPECT’s Annual Conference attracts up to 150 delegates. The 2008 Conference will focus on “Building Brighter Futures” for children and young people. A number of national speakers from education, health and social care will be giving keynote presentations. The conference, a prominent and influential event, provides professionals from a range of background with the opportunity to discuss the benefits and challenges of the Children’s Plan and the means of building brighter futures. Seminars will cover early years to secondary and include looked after children, in addition to a review of the new curriculum and examination regimes. Exhibitor led session opportunities will also be available as part of the conference.
