There’s something for the whole team at BRILLIANT

One day at BRILLIANT could change the conversations happening across your entire school, college or university.

On 10th November, BRILLIANT Festival returns to Exhibition Centre Liverpool, bringing together educators, education leaders, industry experts and innovators to explore the challenges and opportunities shaping education.

With six key themes running throughout the 2026 agenda, there’s something for every member of your team to take back to your organisation.

For your Senior Leadership Team: Are we preparing young people for the future workforce?

Explore how AI, automation and changing employer expectations are reshaping the skills young people need and what educators can do now to prepare pupils for careers that may not even exist yet.

For your digital or AI lead: What does responsible and effective use of AI actually look like?

Move beyond the debate about whether AI belongs in education and explore the practical questions, from safeguarding and policy to reducing teacher workload, improving learning and making informed decisions about technology.

For your SEND or Inclusion lead: How can we create more inclusive classrooms?

Discover how inclusive teaching approaches, assistive technology and a better understanding of individual needs can help remove barriers to learning and create environments where more pupils can thrive.

For your STEAM lead: How do we turn creativity, science and technology into meaningful learning?

Explore how creative thinking, hands-on experiences and connections between subjects can make learning more engaging, relevant and accessible, while building the problem-solving skills pupils need for the future.

For your computing and curriculum team: What can gaming and esports teach us about engagement and future skills?

Look beyond gaming as entertainment and discover its potential to develop collaboration, strategic thinking, digital literacy and problem-solving, with ideas for bringing these approaches into teaching and learning.

For your safeguarding team: How do we prepare young people for the digital world they’re already living in?

Explore the challenges of growing up in an AI-driven, always-connected world, including responsible use of technology, online safety and how educators can help pupils navigate technology confidently and critically.

One event, endless opportunities to explore new ideas, share experiences and take practical inspiration back to your team.

BRILLIANT isn’t just about what you learn on the day, it’s about what you take back, share with colleagues and put into practice.

Bring your team to BRILLIANT 2026.
