SUMMER FAIR HANDBOOK
Dear Summer Fair exhibitor,
The pre-registrations are flying, this demonstrates a renewed appetite for attending informative events and validates the need to help parents address this stage from Year 4 to Year 8.
The information published on this page is designed to help you plan for the Independent Schools Show Summer Fair, if you have any questions please get in contact.
Ben & the ISS team
Talks play a vital role attracting parents to the event. We have a comprehensive line up of speakers in the Education Theatre covering all the topics parents need to know to navigate this stage of their child's education.
Building on the success of the London Choices feature at ISS in Battersea, the 'how to apply theatre' provides parents with an overview of the application processes of London day schools.
