Dear all, 


🌟 21 DAYS To GO 🌟

Reminder - Registration is now open for the Third Disciplinary Literacy Symposium, taking place on 17–18 June 2026 at the University of Bath (in person and online), hosted by The BAWESS Project.

The Symposium brings together teachers implementing disciplinary literacy and internationally renowned language education researchers to share and discuss the latest developments in teaching and learning.

Key themes include:

  • Disciplinary knowledge and literacy
  • Supporting learners’ access to the curriculum
  • Improving oracy, reading, and writing within disciplines
  • Explicit teaching of language and literacy by teachers
  • Enhancing learner outcomes

Join us to take part in lively discussions, exchange ideas, and build valuable professional connections.

Join us to hear from researchers and practitioners with direct experience of teaching disciplinary literacy across subjects such as Physics, Religion and Philosophy, History, and more.

Please register by 8th June, 2026 here.

We look forward to seeing you in June!

All the best,

 

Gail

I am interested in the work and wondered what an online registration would offer over the two days.

Hi Stuart
We are just finalising the schedule. Attached is the latest schedule, although this may change a little?

Online registration - you will be sent a link to join via Teams and will have an opportunity to listen to all the talks and ask questions. Someone will be moderating the Teams channel on both days.

All the presentations will be in person. The workshops will be much better in person and have been designed for in person and not online. We will try to offer interactive elements to online participants, but initially we were not going to offer workshops online. We hope that we can engage the online community in discussions and break out rooms during the workshops.

Hope that clarifies all the points?

All the best
Gail
