Hear from past delegates

“An engaging day that felt like it provided a useful window into the direction of travel, during these early days of a new government. The more BESA events I attend, the more useful they become as I gradually connect with some wonderful colleagues from across the sector.”
Olivia Sumpter, Bedrock Learning

“Attending this event was great experience. Each year, it’s hosted at stunning locations that create the perfect atmosphere for both learning and networking. What stands out most is the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, professionals who are passionate about delivering the best services and products to schools. The event is a melting pot of ideas, innovation, and collaboration.”
Karen Martin, Jem Education
