SLF 2013 will be held on Wednesday 25th and Thursday 26th September 2013 in the SECC, Glasgow. |
|
The theme for SLF 2013 is Raising the bar in Scotland – transforming lives through learning.
The Scottish Learning Festival 2013 will support practitioners explore a wide range of practical approaches, resources and research aimed at improving achievement and attainment for all our learners in Scotland. While raising the bar in Scotland will impact on all our learners, it is likely to have particular impact on the learning outcomes and life chances of “those who experience social disadvantage in Scotland, which studies show appears to be a larger factor in attainment than in similar countries.” OECD 2009 |

The Call for Participation is now open and full details of the theme along with an online submission form are available on the SLF website. Are you aware of establishments that demonstrate good practice or maybe there is a project that you have been working on that could be showcased. We would encourage you to share this information with your colleagues and networks and submit proposals for consideration. There is a robust review, evaluation and scoring system in place to help ensure all submissions are treated equally and therefore it is essential that all requests to participate go through the submission process and adhere to the timescales provided.

Last year we received in excess of 350 submissions which allowed Education Scotland to deliver a relevant and balanced conference programme covering all key areas of education. The 2013 programme will be launched in May and will feature the sessions that have been submitted and selected by the review panel.
The deadline for submitting proposals is Friday 1st March, proposals received after this date cannot be considered for inclusion in the conference programme. We look forward to receiving your proposals and hope you will contribute to SLF 2013 to help continue to deliver Scotland’s largest annual national education conference and exhibition. |
