London has long had a history as a centre of learning. From the charity schools established in the Middle Ages, to the university colleges developed in the nineteenth century, the city has continuously maintained its position as a place of education, and today London has the largest student population of any British city.
To uncover and explore the many exciting narratives and projects that make up some of London's educational history, Archives for London has brought together some of London’s top academics and archive professionals and we are thus delighted to be able to confirm the following conference speakers:
