Why should I attend?


In times of considerable change and challenge, the only constant is the singular view of educators and practitioners that simply want the best for pupils.

We want to keep them safe in both the real and digital world, we want to bridge gaps of disadvantage, we want to ensure each child can reach their full potential, regardless of their start in life or their ability, and ultimately, we want to ensure that every child gets the education they deserve.  


But how do we do this?

We do this by working together; by building a united agency for change and improved outcomes for schools.  

To reinforce this message the Birmingham Education Partnership, Link2ICT and Services for Education have joined forces to provide schools and academies with a two-day conference that will shine a light on collaboration and drive a unified vision for improved outcomes for Birmingham’s pupils. 

There are so many components to consider when attempting to deliver the very best in education, but at some point we have to admit that we all need a little bit of help, and that’s why this conference has been designed especially to support Birmingham’s School Leaders through networking opportunities, sharing best practice, tips and advice, and hearing from some of the best placed experts in the country, as they provide additional knowledge, resources and inspiration to take back to school and begin implementation for the new academic year. 


Come and join us on:
Monday 24 September at Tipu Sultan, Moseley

Join us for a networking event aimed at Headteachers and Senior Leadership. We’ll be kick starting the new year as we mean to go on by working together and sharing key information, enhanced with good food and good company. Go ahead and book your place today.
