In a year of this much change, can you afford not to attend?
New curriculum, new assessment, a new inspection framework, and reforms to accountability. If you lead on data in a school, college or trust, the landscape you're navigating now looks nothing like the one you knew twelve months ago, and the pace isn't slowing.
The ASCL Data and Accountability Leadership Conference is back in September, and this year it has never mattered more.
What does the day look like?
This is a full, practical day. The morning session features direct updates from those shaping the national picture, with time built in for your questions. In the afternoon, practitioners lead the way with honest, grounded sessions on what is actually working in schools and trusts now.
What will I take back to my school?
You will leave with:
- confidence to lead informed conversations with your headteacher, principal, CEO, governors or trustees, which are grounded in direct updates from the DfE and Ofqual, not filtered through someone else's interpretation
- clarity on inspection and RISE, including where the framework is heading, what evidence matters most, and how to position your school or trust to respond with confidence
- practical strategies you can apply straight away, drawn from practitioners already doing this work, including approaches to data-driven improvement and supporting disadvantaged learners
- a sharper handle on the accountability calendar so you can plan ahead, avoid surprises, and lead your team through the year with purpose
- stronger professional networks and connections with peers navigating the same pressures, as well as access to exhibitors who specialise in supporting data leadership
Last year's conference sold out and with more to navigate than ever, make sure you book early.
