About ICT for Education
The ICT for Education brand encompasses conferences, seminars and a dedicated newsletter, Sapientia.
For over a decade ICT for Education events have brought educators, schools, IT experts and technology suppliers together for a day of insightful keynote speakers, networking, and hands-on demonstrations.
Since 2012 ICTfE have hosted over 120 events. Over 10,000 delegates from over 8,000 schools have registered to attend these events and over 200 technology suppliers have showcased their products and services.
ICT for Education conferences and seminars are now widely recognised as the leading regional technology events for teachers and schools in the UK.
The events programme was launched to help teachers and others responsible for IT and computing in UK schools to get the most out of technology in the face of ever-changing curriculum demands and constantly evolving classroom technology.
ICT for Education events provide an appropriate environment for those supplying technology to schools to meet teachers and to showcase their products and services in a relaxed, consultative and professional manner. Our events are a perfect environment for networking and doing business.
Independent and authoritative, The ICT for Education brand is trusted by teachers. Conferences, seminars and Sapientia represent their views, concerns and experiences, and deal with the issues faced when looking to successfully teach and implement ICT within school. By bringing teachers together and sharing information and experience, ICT for Education is an invaluable source of information to teachers and school leaders.
Conferences
Since 2012 ICT for Education conferences have looked to inform and inspire the teaching of computing and the use of ICT across the school curriculum. They also address the use of technology in the running of a school be it on an administrative basis or the provision of a safe and secure network.

Testimonials
Great to meet with you the other day at the ICT for Education conference. I really enjoyed the speakers and the trade stands, I also placed a few orders with some of the exhibitors off of the back of the conference.

We both thoroughly enjoyed it and will definitely spread the word and also attend next year. The metaphor about fighting the polar bear – regarding AI – was powerful and this would be one element we would like to hear from of next year, please.
