Event Date: 06/05/2015 14:00 - 17:00

As a follow up to last year's cross-sector symposium, jointly organised with the University Council for Modern Languages Scotland (UCMLS), as part of Engage with Strathclyde, this year's event has two aims:

  1. Devise a long-term and sustainable language promotion strategy through a series of national cross-sector initiatives between schools and universities and
  2. Establish a Scotland-wide research network related to languages, language pedagogy and language policy across the sectors generally, and the 1+2 language policy specifically.

The event will therefore be of interest to a wide range of stakeholders.

You can now register for this important cross-sector event on the website. 

Proceedings will start with an outline of proposals in support of the ambitious and challenging 1 + 2 language policy, building on the successful outcomes of last year's event. Delegates will then be invited to join a discussion which will feed into a long-term and sustainable language promotion strategy through a series of national cross-sector initiatives between schools and universities. The event also aims to establish a Scotland-wide research network related to languages, language pedagogy and language policy across the sectors generally, and the 1+2 language policy specifically.

We hope to see many of you there!
