The conference programme will concentrate on aspects of Curriculum for Excellence and will form a major part of the strategy for engagement and implementation. It will include:
Transition – how will CfE assist in the development of programmes in the upper primary and early secondary years?
Links between first and second languages – how can modern languages teachers effectively build on pupils' first language skills and help to develop overall literacy?
HMIE – the modern languages inspectorate team will continue their very valuable input and dialogue on themes related to effective learning and teaching and CfE.
In addition, we intend to provide a short list of further topics which can be chosen to reflect particular needs in particular areas of the country.
For further details please see the Scottish CILT website.
