The National Association of Teachers of Travellers is a professional association in the UK that has an annual conference conference, bi-annal resource fairs, professional development courses and support for teachers working with Gypsy, Roma and Traveller pupils and students.

The conference this year, to be held on 15 March in Birmingham, UK is specifically about Roma and also features a workshop about early childhood development, in light of a call from the executive board in 2011 to establish an ECD interest group that met with little response.

In my continuing effort to connect up people, networks, projects and the worlds of ECD and Roma, Gypsy, Traveller education and rights, please pass this information to colleagues who might be interested.

More information on the event is available here.
