JOIN THE CONVERSATION AROUND THE EDUCATION ESTATE
7 Conference Stages | 150+ Exhibitors | 3000+ Attendees | 700 Awards Guests Education Estates®
is an annual event that brings
together the education community: from policy makers and designers to suppliers and educators. The event showcases the best educational projects over the last year - the concepts behind them, the expertise employed in creating them and the real-life experiences of learners using the space.
Held in partnership with the Department for Education, Education Estates®
is the UK’s leading learning environments event and the only event of its kind focussing on the funding, design, build, maintenance and management of schools, colleges and universities. For educators, it is a key resource to gain valuable insight into upcoming policy, be inspired by innovative new projects and derive practical knowledge from experts in the sector.
Education Estates® is a place to meet like-minded people and be part
of a network of educational leaders. All those involved in the event are passionate about delivering environments that foster learning, creativity and community.
• Learn: a 2-day conference over 7 themed stages • Explore: an exhibition showcasing some of the most innovative solutions around
• Celebrate: an awards ceremony celebrating excellence in the sector
Event Director of Education Estates® , James Lee, is excited for the
upcoming event: “This year is the biggest and best yet! Each stage is a conference in its own right, enabling delegates to focus 2 full days on 1 key area of interest or select sessions across all 7 stages and gain a broader understanding of the challenges and opportunities in the sector. The event is particularly poignant this year and interest is at an all-time high, generating the highest ever number of registered attendees. Be part of the conversation – join us on 15-16 October!”
The conference programme offers delegates innovative ideas to current challenges, with presentations exploring every facet of the project and experiences from concept through to end user.
The exhibition will be the largest to date, with a wide range of main contractors, architects, consultants, and suppliers of vital products and services designed for the education sector. Many will be showcasing projects and demonstrating products on their stands, making it the ideal place to source products and services that can have a positive impact on learners’ experiences.
The Education Estates® Awards sells out every year. The shortlist has
been released and the winners will be announced on the night by popular comedian, Hugh Dennis. New for this year is the Education Estates®
education.
Kerry Whittle, Head of Capital Projects and Maintenance at Blackpool and Fylde College attended for the first time in 2023 and explains what she gained from taking part: “Being new to the education sector and in particular managing Estates, I felt it was important to understand the challenges that the sector faces and how fellow professionals are achieving success and solutions for their sites / campus. The topics and speakers were informed and relevant, and the exhibitors provided a welcome approach to questions and potential solutions and new innovations.”
