Education Conference season

Just as September heralds the return to school and a new term, October always feels like the beginning of the conference season for those of us operating across the academy school sector.

I am very much looking forward to attending as a panellist, charing and exhibiting over the next couple of months.

First up is the School Estate Conference on Wednesday October 5th, held at the Hatfield’s Conference Centre in London.
The conference will cover a range of pressing issues ranging from capital funding and investment options, data collection and concerns over energy costs and emissions.
I am very much looking forward to being on the panel discussing the issues surrounding energy at 12.00. High noon for us all.

The Education Estates Conference, held in Manchester from October 18th-19th and celebrating its 10th year, is always a perennial favourite. We are exhibiting and can be found on stand 715, where we would be delighted to take you through our Estates Management Services provision. I am also very much looking forward to being chair on the Good Estate Management Stage at 14.30 to discuss good estate management with a very strong set of DfE and wider education sector presenters.

Finally, I am thrilled to be on the panel for the Smart Asset and Estate Management conference on December 8th, held at the Queen Elizabeth Conference Centre, in London and hosted by GovNet. I am part of the panel assessing backlog funding from 14.20.

It is always a pleasure to share the stage with those at the forefront of thought leadership and to be invited to discuss best practice with other professional service providers.

I do hope to meet as many of delegates as possible.
