Strategy, practice and impact
A day-long conference for school and college leaders who want to move beyond the hype.
Whether you are thinking about how to build an AI strategy across your trust, how to embed digital systems in your school, how AI can support students with SEND, or whether AI can genuinely democratise education, this conference will give you real answers from leaders who are doing the work now.
Our speakers bring direct, hands-on experience. They have introduced AI into their schools carefully and honestly, tested what it can do, and are ready to share what they found, including whether it was worth it.
Sessions
- Digital Strategy and Infrastructure: the standards, cyber security and governance that need to be in place before AI can work, including what changes when you're leading across a trust rather than a single school.
- AI in practice: teaching, learning and inclusion: how AI can support students with SEND, what AI marking looks like in practice, and whether AI can genuinely democratise education.
- AI in the Classroom: trial, error and the truth: the day concludes with a chaired panel discussion where our speakers reflect honestly on their own experience and answer the question every leader in the room will be thinking 'was it worth it'?
Why is it needed?
AI is no longer a future consideration for schools and colleges; it is already shaping teaching, workload and infrastructure decisions. Yet most of what leaders hear is either hype or fear. This conference replaces both with evidence, from leaders who have introduced AI carefully, tested it honestly, and are willing to say what worked and what didn't.
