Education Insights: A focus on Future Skills

By The Teaching Awards Trust

Overview

Join Education Insights to discover how young people are building the skills that will shape their future success

Education Insights is an exciting new series of events launching early 2026 in 5 regions, delivered by The Teaching Awards Trust supported by Nord Anglia Education, each with a focus on a different prevelant theme in the education sector.

Why should you attend Education Insights: A Focus on Future Skills:

With rapid advances in AI and technology transforming the world of work, careers education has never felt more vital, or more exciting. Today’s learners are stepping into a future full of possibility, and while the pace of change can be daunting, it’s also full of opportunity. Helping young people build the confidence, knowledge and skills they need to thrive in this evolving landscape is a shared responsibility, and a shared celebration of what’s possible when schools, families, businesses and communities come together.

At Future Skills, we’ll explore how best to prepare young people for lives of curiosity, creativity and purpose. Our speakers bring a wealth of perspectives: Jason Elsom, CEO of Parentkind, will share insights into how families can best support their children’s ambitions; Juliet Silverton, CEO of BEP and a former teacher, will reflect on how schools can embed future-focused skills and strengthen careers provision; and Lauren Mistry, Deputy CEO of Youth Employment UK, will draw on national and regional data to uncover the latest trends in youth employment, highlighting the challenges and opportunities ahead.

Like all events in this series, you will leave with fresh strategies to take back to your school or organisation and a renewed sense of optimism about the role we can all play in shaping young people’s futures.

Join us at The Birmingham Rep for an evening of insight, collaboration and inspiration and be part of a growing community helping young people build the skills, confidence and vision they need for the future.
