About this Event

THIS WILL BE AN EDUCATION CONFERENCE WITH A DIFFERENCE

Everyone is affected by education in some way. But education conferences are often not hugely representative of the wider world. In particular, the voices of young people, parents and carers and classroom practitioners are often overlooked and unheard.

This conference will be an opportunity for people from all walks of life to come together:

To have your voice heard
To learn from other people's perspectives
To create an education system that works for *all* young people

WHO IS THIS EVENT FOR?

We aim to attract equal numbers from each of the following five groups - and to ensure that these five groups will be equally represented on the platforms:

Mainstream educators
Alternative educators
Parents and carers
Young people
Education reformers

HOW WILL MY VOICE BE HEARD?

Speaker applications have now closed. But you don't have to do a talk to make your voice heard. Alongside the keynote speakers and presentations, the conference will feature a range of inclusive, interactive sessions and activities:

Workshops
Debates
Circle time sessions
Panel discussions
"Hot takes"
Organised mingling
