CAS Regional Community: Yorkshire & Humber
Welcome to your CAS Regional Community!
Keep an eye out here for upcoming regional events and opportunities.
Got a question or suggestion? The community leaders listed at the top of the page are ready to help!
We also encourage you to join the conversation: post your thoughts, ideas, resources, or any local teaching vacancies on the Discussion Board at the bottom of the page to share with the community.
Regional Communities bring together local groups from across a wider area, creating opportunities to connect, collaborate, and share ideas beyond your immediate network. These overarching communities are designed to support and strengthen Local Communities by hosting regional events and encouraging cross-community connections.
"As leader of the Hull and East Riding Hub, I’m keen to explore how the wider region can share ideas, good practice and run events. Get in touch if you have something we can explore." - Neil Gordon

Hi I am Carla, class teacher at St Johns CE VA J and I school in Wakefield and the new computing lead. I would love to meet people in the area to help us.
With this new group, we’d like to hear from those involved in teaching computing at all levels in our region, to identify what are the current issues or topics you’d like us to explore together.
