The UKLA annual student and teacher online conference (2025) explores the notion of the teaching of writing for pleasure. Through the conference delegates will, through three expert-led sessions, develop their subject knowledge and gain practical strategies and lesson ideas to teach writing for pleasure confidently in the classroom. There will be a particular focus on writing for pleasure with SEND pupils.
Designed for both student teachers and teachers, this conference will prove to be invaluable professional development.
Through the day there will be interactive sessions from:
- Ross Young – founder of the Writing for Pleasure Centre The 14 Principles which underpin Writing for Pleasure
- Billy Allgood – SENCO @ Gallions Primary School The benefits of writing for pleasure for SEND pupils
- Felicity Ferguson – founder of the Writing for Pleasure Centre How to develop yourself as an excellent teacher of writing in whatever context you find yourself in.
