ALT Annual Conference 2025

This year’s ALT Annual Conference, taking place in Glasgow on Thursday 23 and Friday 24 October, will explore the following theme:

‘Stronger Foundations, Broader Horizons’

In a time marked by uncertainty, complexity, and rapid digital change, purposeful action matters more than ever. ALTC25 will provide a space to reflect on how robust digital foundations can empower more expansive, inclusive, and imaginative possibilities for education.

We welcome proposals that align with one or more of the following conference sub-themes:

1. Back to Basics: Reclaiming the Core
Reflecting on how we embed consistent, inclusive, and reliable digital infrastructure and close persistent gaps in practice.

2. Digital by Design: People, Empathy, and Experience
Exploring human-centred design, wellbeing, inclusive pedagogy, ethical use of AI, and digital experiences that prioritise care and community.

3. Learning in Motion: Connecting Pathways, People, and Places
Focusing on joined-up approaches to digital education across sectors, highlighting partnership, flexibility, and coherence across learning journeys.

4. Critical Imagination: Questioning and Creating in Digital Spaces
Interrogating dominant narratives and celebrating creativity, criticality, and culture in digital learning through research and practice.

5. Wildcard: Innovation from the Margins
A space for unconventional approaches and under-represented voices. If your work doesn’t fit neatly into other strands, this is the place for you.
