Registration for the conference is open and all contributors to the conference need to register. The venue for the conference is the UCL Institute of Education, 20 Bedford Way, London WC1H 0AL.

Timetable

The conference timetable is now available. In addition to the varied and wide-ranging conference sessions, there are a number of exciting additional activities on offer including workshops, walking tours and special access to exhibitions and museum collections and, of course, the TAG party!
