English & Media Centre Student Conferences

The English & Media Centre (EMC) runs student conferences aimed specifically at A Level students. These in-person conferences bring together subject specialists and practising teachers to deliver focussed sessions on AQA/Edexcel-style topics such as literature, language study and the Poems of the Decade anthology.

Schools are asked to book places in advance and can download EMCs key information PDF for full booking guidance. Dates announced for Autumn 2026 (London) include a Literature Conference (10 November 2026), a Language Conference (24 November 2026) and a Poems of the Decade conference (9 December 2026); bookings for each event open at 10:00 on the dates listed on the page.

EMC also notes forthcoming conferences in Spring 2027 including a MediaMagazine Conference (London) and an emagazine Language Conference in the North (Macclesfield).

The conferences are designed for classroom groups of A Level students and are run on an in-person basis in the named cities.
