… and much more! It was a day full of ideas, energy and inspiration and a real testament to the power of collaboration in language education. We look forward to continuing the conversation at the 11th edition of LanGW4, hosted by the University of Bristol in 2026!

60+ delegates from across the partnership explored this year’s themes Community and Creativity through presentations on inclusive learning, creative assessment, grassroots initiatives like the Language Café, student co-creation, graphic novels, slow learning in the age of AI…
