New for 2025/26 – Speed Meets
STARME are delighted to introduce new ‘Speed Meets’ which are designed to allow members to share aspects of their practice or research with fellow RME/RE/RMPS colleagues.
- Do you have a new course that is going well?
- Do you have a piece of research/Practitioner Enquiry related to our subject?
- Have you increased departmental numbers?
- Have you successfully delivered bi/tri level Senior Phase qualifications?
- Do you have ways of delivering lessons that learners find engaging?

If you can answer yes, to the above questions or have an exciting aspect of practice that you would like to share, we would love to hear from you!
Speed Meets will be offered monthly (online) and will last for 30 minutes..
We will publish a calendar of Teach Meets in the new session to allow you to add them to your diaries. These will be an excellent way of accessing RME/RE/RMPS specific CLPL. If you would like to sign-up to deliver a Speed Meet session, please complete the Form
