    My colleagues and I thought it was the best conference of any that we've attended. I'm already looking forward to next year.
    The best CPD event that I've attended in a long time. Inspiring speakers plus time to network and reflect which is so important
    The calibre of the speakers is absolutely outstanding and make this a must attend event

    2024 delegate feedback

    "This was a very well organised and run conference. The range of speakers was excellent and really supported me in some of my own thinking. I genuinely left feeling it had been a very worthwhile event."

    "I thought the conference was excellent (and it was my first time)."

    "It was good to hear from others who have a real understanding of educational leadership and understand how incredibly challenging it is but through the sense of how important it is to support each other in rising to meet that challenge."

    "It was my first ASCL conference and didn't disappoint - great venue and food but more importantly, the keynotes were interesting and sometimes inspirational and the variety of workshops was impressive!"

    "The day was excellent, speakers were varied in what they were presenting on and I left with good ideas, some challenging some supporting my ideas/schools steps."
