ParisYour Future in Europe

Palais des Congrès

Saturday 6th February 2010

The European event to inform, enthuse and inspire your students...

Conference

Now in it's 20th year, our flagship conference 'Your Future In Europe' attracts an audience of over 2,500 students. Its popularity year after year lies in the fantastic calibre of our speakers, ranging from leading politicians to experts in European business, economics and culture.

The conference is held in the prestigious Palais des Congrés in the heart of Paris, the perfect setting for tackling Europe's most current issues. The undisputed highlight of the day is always our Question Time session with panel of leading MPs and cutting edge journalists. Past years have seen Michael Portillo, Patricia Hewitt, Charles Kennedy and Ken Livingstone face the audience as the students are encouraged to voice their own opinions and questions to them - completely uncensored with no holds barred! We think that this conference is a fantastic opportunity for all students studying History, Politics, French, Economics and Law. What's more, because of its focus on current affairs 'Your Future in Europe' is ideal as a cross curricular event for Sixth Formers.

This conference remains just the sort of education schools should be offering their Sixth Form students
