A new website is apparently launching soon. Perhaps with a new logo?
GEReCo includes a number of people who you will be familiar with from this blog as they have featured before. There is a strong link between the group and the Association and Education Group in particular.
Geography Education Research Collective / UK Commission on Geographical Education of the International Geographical UnionProfessor David Lambert has been a member, alongside Mary Biddulph, Claire Brookes and Graham Butt amongst others in recent times.
Secretary of the group is Dr. Nicola Walshe, who has been working in a number of contexts, and invited me to Homerton many times during her time there leading the PGCE. She will be working at UCL IoE shortly, which is a wonderful new challenge for her. John Morgan is also returning to UCL so that will once again make it a department with many GA connections.
Nicola will join the Institute as Head of Department and Professor of Education in the summer, ahead of the 2021/22 academic year.
GERECO runs a number of research seminars. I have attended a few in the past in person.
We are very excited for our annual @GEReCo_1 seminar #geographyteacher #primarygeography #geographylead #lcgeography Please spread the word! https://t.co/IHDvZhTofV

The next one is next week and you can register for it on Eventbrite.
This is a reminder of the long tradition of the GA and its Presidents of engaging with research.
