It’s now less than three weeks until the Scottish Learning Festival returns for 2010 offering a unique opportunity to discover what is happening in education across the country. As Curriculum for Excellence reaches full adoption across Scotland, SLF 2010 aims to provide the chance to find out about successful, innovative approaches to learning and teaching.

This year’s conference programme includes inspirational keynote addresses from Michael Russell MSP, Cabinet Secretary for Education and Lifelong Learning, Eric Booth, leading Arts and Creative Learning Consultant, Richard Gerver, inspirational leader and educator and Professor Sugata Mitra, Professor of Educational Technology from Newcastle University.

Spotlight sessions are available throughout the event as well 160 seminars over the two days. Host of SLF for several years, Heather Reid, OBE, will for the first time be delivering a spotlight session. Don’t miss your opportunity to come along and hear Heather talking about Climate Change as a Context for Learning. In addition to the conference programme, the exhibition will provide access to 200 exhibitors of educational resources and a whole host of features including the Scottish Education Village, the Health and Wellbeing Zone, the Education Showcase and much more.

As well as the usual two day festival new for 2010 SLF is introducing Twilight sessions; a full conference programme running until 18.30 on the Wednesday evening including a keynote address from Eric Booth, a number of seminars and the chance to explore the exhibition.
