ASCL Conference for School Pastoral Leadership 2025

Millennium Gloucester Hotel London

A mission to establish belonging in schools

The ASCL Conference for School Pastoral Leadership 2025 will focus on how schools can foster belonging by strengthening SEND provision, attendance, and wellbeing, recognising the role that systems and processes can play in enabling improvement. 

This event is an excellent opportunity for all school leaders and education practitioners to access professional development, share learning, and seek out support which helps to grow inclusive schools and improve outcomes for all students.

Hear about stories of success that can support schools to the ever-better outcomes they seek by strengthening engagement, attendance, and positive school experiences with insights from recent research and great practice. 

The conference will focus on improvement for all, and particularly our most vulnerable of learners. 

Join us for an incredible day of professional development and networking for everyone who is passionate about improving outcomes for children.
