BETT 2020

Posted on by Keith Aquilina

End of January, I had the opportunity of visiting BETT at the eXcel in London. BETT is an edTech fair showcasing a vast array of tools and services related to technology in education. It was so inspiring to visit stands showcasing latest hardware, software solutions, startups and talks.

It was interesting to see a vast array of stands intended for school leaders, eduators and kids. Surely, through talks and chats with like minded educators, I reconfirmed my perception that locally we are doing a lot, state schools are well equipped, needing to equip ourselves more in continuous training and support.
