ALL London hosts 'Teachers' Show and Tell'
2025-11-15 17:30 - 19:00
A very popular and regular feature of the Language Show. Helen Myers and Joe Dale of the Association for Language Learning, London Branch. Teacher participants (MFL and TEFL) are invited to speak for a maximum of 5 minutes about their top tip for classroom practice including teaching ideas, pupil activities and resources.
We would welcome as many contributors as possible, each having a slot lasting usually a maximum of 5 minutes but this can vary when we see how many attend! Feel free to offer more than one slot. Please be aware that the emphasis is on sharing classroom practice – not for individuals to promote their own business product. Please be prepared to be flexible! Thank you!

A webinar with Adam Lamb and David Blow: Exploring the results in the new GCSEs in French, German and Spanish
2026-08-27 19:00 - 20:00
Register on Eventbrite here.
ALL London invites all to a free webinar, open to all MFL teachers. We hope that you will like us and want to join!
We thank the presenters, who give freely of their time and expertise. This session will be recorded and available for viewing later.
SESSION INFORMATION
This free webinar will explore the results in the new GCSEs in French, German and Spanish, so that teachers, senior leaders and others have an accurate understanding of how the grading process has operated, the differences and similarities with the previous GCSEs and the implications for schools.
It will look at the differences in the approach for the new and previous specifications, and the implications for raw marks, grade boundaries and grade distributions.
It will explain the principles behind the allocation of grades by Ofqual and the exam boards to GCSEs and A-levels in all subjects in this era of “comparable outcomes”, and unpick common misconceptions (and consequent risks for misleading information/people) about raw marks, grade boundaries, etc.
It will look at the longstanding and ongoing issue of “severe grading” at both GCSE (and A Level), and highlight changes which have been made, and the further changes which are needed, some 50 years on from it first being identified!
Our presenters:
David Blow
David Blow is an Executive Head and ALL Fellow who has worked for many years with ASCL and CST analysing and explaining exam data, and in particular, highlighting the issue of severe grading and pushing for changes. Key documents relating to this issue are on this page of our website.
Adam Lamb
Adam is Director of Modern Foreign Languages for the United Learning Trust, and is an experienced marker and former Head of Department. He has been very involved in introducing the new specifications to the schools in the Trust
