TES SEND Show mini-conference

CALLING ALL EARWIG AFFICIONADOS IN OR AROUND LONDON

‍

Many of you already know what good value the Earwig Local conferences are. This time, it's especially good value.

For the start of 2025-26 we thought we’d kill two birds with one stone and combine our termly get-together for school Earwig Admins, Ambassadors and super-users with the TES SEND Show in London.

If you are within striking distance of London and feel that it's time you attended a special needs education exhibition, then the TES one in Islington (October 10-11th) is the one to go to. We will have a stand at the show and will also be delivering a talk on ‘Practical AI Implementation in Special Schools’ at 2.45pm on Friday the 10^th Oct. So we thought we'd make a day of it and do a Mini-conference as well.

The Earwig Mini-conference will be held at the Hilton Islington, which is perfectly situated right next door to the Design Centre, where the TES Show is.

So that you have the afternoon to attend the Earwig AI talk and also get round the 160+ stands, the Earwig Conference will be limited to the morning, followed by a three course lunch at the hotel. Although we will only have three hours for the conference, we will pack in as much as we can (see the Agenda below) and, of course, you will be able to meet other SEN teachers and school leaders over both coffee and lunch.

So, this time, you get most of the value of a full Local Conference but for only half the price! Entry to the TES Exhibition is free.  So this combination represents the best possible value for your school’s money.

If you haven’t been to an Earwig Conference, read some of the comments from previous delegates below and book your place now. We look forward very much to seeing you (and maybe a colleague) there.

The conference starts at 10am. Lunch is at 1pm. The AI presentation is at 2.45 at the Exhibitors' Theatre and you can find us at any time on Stand M65.
