One of the most inspiring events in 2026 will be the latest running of Practical Pedagogies. This is returning to where it started: the International School of Toulouse and is once again being organised by Russel Tarr. I’ve presented at every one so far. Unfortunately, this is in term time for me, so I won’t be able to attend, but it comes highly recommended if you can make it there - cheap flights are available from the UK to Toulouse airport.
Here’s Russ’s Call for Sessions, which is NOW OPEN! I’m delighted to announce the launch of Practical Pedagogies 2026 and warmly invite new, early-career, and experienced educators to submit session proposals focused on:
✔️ Resources and strategies that work in real classrooms
✔️ Practical approaches you’ve refined — even if you’re still refining them
✔️ Honest reflections on teaching, learning, and leadership
🗓️ Practical Pedagogies 2026 — BY teachers, FOR teachers
📍 International School of Toulouse, France
📅 Thursday 15 & Friday 16 October 2026
🎤 Keynote address by Ian Gilbert, internationally renowned educator on creativity and curiosity
