"For some young participants, it is the first time they have talked about the possibility of going to university."
Delighted to see The Queen's College Translation Exchange work with schools profiled in University of Oxford feature.

📢 Languages advocacy & outreach needs to start *early* for languages – Year 7 at the latest.
👏 The proof is in the pudding: last year 22,000 learners from 412 schools took part in the Anthea Bell Prize. Busy teachers opt into this project because it raises the profile of languages in their schools and helps them to increase uptake.
💡 The Prize provides cultural, creative activities that link to the curriculum – this is what teachers tell us they need. It motivates *both teachers & pupils*.
🗣️ Teachers also tell us that creative translation develops their students’ problem solving and critical thinking skills; offering ‘many of them a huge uplift in self-confidence and self-belief and a sense of opportunities they had never considered within their reach’.
🌍 Last but… increasingly not least: this approach to language learning fosters cultural inclusion. ‘Young people who immerse themselves in languages are better placed to appreciate the cultural diversity around them and its value to wider society.’

“Be creative. Be supported. Feel like you can achieve something.”
🎥 We're proud of our Head Chef Sean Ducie who is featured in a new interview series from the Oxford Guild of Chefs. He talks about starting out, finding confidence on the pass, and why he’d encourage young people to give cheffing a try.
Please spread the word to anyone considering a first step into hospitality:

On #EuropeanDayOfLanguages, Queen’s Translation Exchange (QTE) is launching the Anthea Bell Prize for Young Translators for 2025–26. We’re sending free poetry translation teaching packs to 2,000+ teachers and opening registrations for classroom resources in six languages. We are excited to help grow the next generation of linguists and inspire a lifelong love of language-learning and international culture.
