Really getting excited now about this ICT & MFL weekend!

This year’s programme offers a wide range of session with the emphasis very much on ‘hands-on’ workshops.   Delegates can choose their workshops and sessions to meet their individual needs, and will have lots of opportunity to really get to grips with the new ideas being demonstrated – and share good practice in a nurturing environment.

This event is renowned for its friendly and supportive atmosphere, and everyone will find a full range of workshops and seminars to suit their needs.  Whilst many sessions have an ICT focus, there are plenty of other sessions which serve to exemplify many aspects of creative and inspiring MFL teaching and learning.

The conference is supported by a sizeable exhibition of sponsors, including top publishers, software companies and other resource providers.
