Advisory Board

Helping to shape the UK Festival of Education

About

The Advisory Board helps us ensure Festival content is as strong and relevant as possible for people working across the education sector – in schools, colleges, HE institutions, training providers and more.

Members are selected through a competitive application process, and are representative of a broad range of roles and settings in education, spanning the length and breadth of the country.Β 

Drawing on their varied expertise allows the Festival team to curate a well-rounded, expansive programme that fulfils our mission to inspire and inform.
