ABOUT US
Our Mission & Values
At the Schools & Academies Show, we are committed to fostering innovation, inspiration and learning across the education sector.
Our mission is to provide senior education leaders with a one-stop shop of everything they need to put together their strategic business and school improvement plans for lasting impact. The content, exhibition floor, suppliers and interactive features have been carefully curated to reflect and provide solutions to the challenges and pain points facing senior leaders within schools and MATs.
Visitors leave with new connections, actionable insights and practical strategies to drive school improvements, make cost savings and transform pupil outcomes.
The show takes place twice a year, our one-day show at the Excel is held in May and we host a two-day event at the NEC, Birmingham each November. Collectively, both shows attract 6000+ visitors, hosting tailored CPD content, unrivalled networking opportunities and an exhibition hosting cutting-edge education suppliers.

#SAASHOW
An Unmissable Education Event For School Leaders
Join us to be a part of the UK’s leading education event; collaborate with fellow senior leaders, spark new ideas, discover solutions and explore the biggest challenges and emerging trends that will shape the future of education.
OUR CO-LOCATED EVENTS
Each show features co-located events, and your free pass to the SAASHOW provides access to each of them! We’ve identified the most important issues facing the sector, from edtech innovation and AI integration to SEND provision, inclusion and estate management, and created CPD-certified agendas tailored to the most pressing challenges facing those working within the sector.
With the introduction of the HE Transformation Expo in 2025, the show provides our community with new opportunities to access high quality content, make more connections and collaborate in a larger exhibition than ever before!
