Bookings Now Open for 2027 A Level RS Conferences

The new EthIQa conference programme is currently being finalised, with full session details and speaker announcements to follow shortly.

Schools are nevertheless encouraged to reserve places early. EthIQa conferences are planned well in advance, and many departments book on the strength of previous years’ events: academically focused days designed to strengthen subject knowledge, sharpen examination performance, and give students access to university-level expertise.

The 2027 programme will continue our distinctive approach:

  • high-level teaching closely connected to A Level specifications,
  • bespoke conference notes and revision materials,
  • sessions led by experienced academics, examiners, and subject specialists,
  • exposure to wider scholarship and university-style thinking,
  • helping students gain the depth, precision, and confidence needed for top grades and competitive university applications.

Provisional bookings are very welcome while internal approval processes are completed. Venue capacities and hosting arrangements mean that some conferences reach working capacity before the final programme is released, so early booking is encouraged.

What Students Say

I enjoyed how the speakers were so enthusiastic about their subjects and came up with interactive analogies that people could relate to.

LOVED IT! It was amazing and really useful. Julie Arliss’ talks linked in with what we’ve been doing, and all the speakers were so interesting!

I found the conference to be very interesting and enriching – both for the content and philosophy as a whole. It rejuvenated our passion for philosophy and I am so grateful I had the opportunity to attend. Thank you very much!

I am so glad I got to go to this conference. Speaking to others, we all agreed that it allowed us to see our course in a different and broader context. It was lovely engaging in our subject in a way that goes beyond our textbooks. Listening to speakers who knew about Philosophy and were passionate about it, reminded me why I chose to study RS

What Teachers Say

Thank you for making us feel so welcome. The feedback from our students was overwhelmingly positive; the talks continue to stimulate lots of discussion and a number of them have engaged in further research based on the lectures

My students were inspired by the speakers, who were excited to meet some key thinkers. It was all pitched at the right level for my students and they were buzzing about the talks on the journey home.

The presentations are first-rate, fun, lively, and at times humorous. The speakers are balanced and it helped my pupils. Thank you for organising.

The calibre and quality of speakers is exceptional and the content challenging and inspirational. It enabled my students to think philosophically beyond the classroom. The notes are also brilliant and a great resource for the students’ independent, extended learning.
