💭 Tailored to support senior trust leaders

  • Attending the Schools & Academies Show was an incredibly valuable experience. The event provided me with a wealth of insights into the latest trends, tools, and strategies in education, from expert-led seminars to insightful panel discussions. I left with lots of ideas and powerful questions to take back and discuss with colleagues across my Trust, as well as a deeper understanding of emerging technologies and solutions to enhance teaching and operations.

Good choice of sessions and speakers to support your area of work and all the main suppliers and additional ones that you might not have considered. You will definitely walk away gaining knowledge and even reassurance that you are fulfilling your role correctly!

  • The exhibition featured a varied range of exhibitors, giving me the chance to explore new products and connect with current suppliers. There was also a strong program of lectures covering diverse topics such as finance, curriculum development, and SEN, which provided valuable insights. Beyond the sessions, the event offered a great opportunity to network with colleagues and share ideas—even if just to confirm what you already know. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!
