COBIS and King's Group welcomed student leaders from 13 COBIS schools to the COBIS/King's Group Student Leadership Weekend hosted by King's College, Madrid - 9-11 October 2015. 29 students from schools in 9 countries attended the conference which included workshops and sessions from leading speakers on What is Student Leadership?, Social Media Challenge, Public Speaking and Presentation Skills and more.

COBIS CPD and Events Officer, Amy Carter, attended the event and was delighted to see COBIS student leaders fully engage and immerse themselves in the programme as well as having an opportunity to meet and network with fellow students from around the world. Alongside the inspiring and interactive sessions, King's Group colleagues delivered a Wide Game: 1920s Themed Murder Mystery Challenge which was a particular hit with the students who paired off to unscramble the riddles and solve the mystery.

We would like to thank colleagues at King's Group for organising this hugely successful event for the student leaders and wish all students who attended good luck for this academic year, in their exams and their future.
