Teachers Talk Connect
On 1st March 2025, we are delighted to announce we will be holding our first ever multi subject national event - Teachers Talk Connect. The event will be held in Manchester at Friends Meeting House, our usual beautiful regular venue.
The event will incorporate strands from all our major subject groups hosting their own day of talks, panels and networking opportunities - English, Maths, Science, Primary, History, MFL, Geography, RS, Leadership/Coaching and many more. On the 'main stage' we will have a number of amazing keynotes from incredible voices from the education sphere (the main stage sessions will be livestreamed here, subject sessions won't be streamed or recorded so make sure you attend!) - stay tuned for announcements. Who can attend? Anyone! Tickets for teachers and leaders who currently work in 3-19 schools or colleges are free. Corporate tickets are also available. Below are some key links so you can enjoy the event and grab yourself a ticket.

Our event will host three special main stage keynote speakers, each sharing a different element to enhance the teaching and learning opportunities for every teacher in attendance.
