Join the National Conversation around the Education Estate!

7 Conference Stages | 150+ Exhibitors | 3000+ Attendees | 700 Awards Guests

 Education Estates® is the annual event that brings together the education community: from policy makers and responsible bodies to specifiers and the supply chain.  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. Designing for learners requires a collaborative approach and a special skill set - the ability to balance functionality, technology, sustainability and inclusivity.  This is the fundamental principle behind Education Estates®.

  • 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:

“ We’re just five weeks away from the biggest and best Education Estates® 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 exhibition features all the main contractors, as well as architects, consultants, manufacturers and suppliers, who are specialised in education.  Be part of the conversation – join us on 15-16 October!”

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® People’s Awards, recognising incredible talent and passion in education.
