This seminar is designed to give you an overview of the full portfolio of services that BESA offers to ensure that your company gets maximum value from membership. It will be your chance to meet members of the BESA team and to understand our research programme, our campaigns, the wide range of member discounts offered, the UK events that BESA runs and our ever-increasing international activities!

 

 

11.45 - 12.15: The state of the international schools market at the start of the 2021 academic year

Ashley Kirk, Sales Director at ISC Research, will be providing an update on the international schools market in 2021. The session will cover the latest data trends including growth statistics across key data points such as student enrolment, curriculum adoption, tuition fees and more. Education suppliers will find out how ISC Research can support them with their international strategic planning. Ashley will also explore how the COVID-19 pandemic has acted as a catalyst for change amongst international schools globally, delving into key market shifts.

12.45 - 13.30: An overview of UK Education

BESA's Deputy Director General, Julia Garvey, will give a primer on the key structures of the English school system, the national curriculum, assessment and accountability within schools – alongside emerging trends, such as the rise of the Multi-Academy Trusts. The workshop also aims to give participants a good working knowledge of the key government departments and agencies. This session is for those new to the education sector.

 

We look forward to welcoming you!
