    • European Day of Languages with Guild Member, Gwen Clayton (AG68)

    A woman stands behind a lectern speaking to a large audience of Stephen Perse Cambridge students about European Day or Languages 2026.

    As part of our European Day of Languages celebrations, our students were fortunate to hear an insightful and inspiring whole school assembly by Stephen Perse Guild Member, former solicitor, and legal and literary translator, Gwen Clayton (AG68).

    Gwen shared her thoughts on and experience of the benefits of being a polyglot, not only in career terms, but culturally and in shaping one's approach to life. Afterwards, a smaller group of students, including our Law Society and some of our Years 10-13 linguists, enjoyed a fascinating Q&A, covering everything from the differences between legal and literary translation, how human and AI translations differ and why, to Japanese corporate work culture in the 1990s. Thank you, Gwen!
