In partnership with ASCL:
The SEND Leadership Summit is returning for the fourth year on 10th October 2025, and in partnership with the Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL). The Summit is an exclusive one-day conference within the main Tes SEND Show and it provides an opportunity for education leaders to learn alongside peers and thought leaders within the sector. This year’s Summit Keynote, delivered by Tom Rees, Chief Executive of Ormiston Academies Trust and Strategic Advisor for SEND, DfE, builds on the main Tes SEND Show Keynote to allow attendees to challenge latest thinking, as well as enter into discussion and debate about how to take ideas forward.
Your summit ticket gives you:
- Access to the main Tes SEND Show Friday Keynote session
- Exclusive access to the SEND Leadership Summit Keynote
- Interactive workshops run by prominent figures within the sector
- Networking breakfast, lunch and refreshments throughout the day
- Invitation to the drinks reception alongside speakers and other invited guests after the summit.
What should I expect?
The keynote and workshop sessions will be run by those at the forefront of driving change for SEND and will allow time for activities and reflection. The programme timetable also includes opportunities for delegates to visit the exhibition and exclusive access to speakers at the summit.
