"This is my third event and even as a fairly experienced SBL I always get something out of the event, be it a new way of doing something, a new idea, a new contact or even a new friend."

EdExec LIVE: Who we are
In case you are not familiar with us here at Education Executive – or EdExec – we are education specialists, in particular, school business management specialists, talking to school business leaders (SBLs) and school business managers (SBMs) who are responsible for business and financial management in schools.
We produce a carefully curated portfolio of resources that supports and informs the SBL community across the UK’s schools and academies.
Events are one of those resources.
​
Our events brings together SBLs in an environment that promotes discussion, networking and learning. The secret to our success is ensuring we offer a truly targeted and truly bespoke event to our delegates.
​
Our events are specifically aimed at school business managers and leaders, finance directors and ICT Managers - offering an interactive learning and networking experience quite different to other conferences.
​
Here at EdExec we champion the role of the SBL and the event gives us the opportunity to bring together the SBL community in-person to benefit from a day of CPD.
Seminars - Expert Panels - Workshops
Seminars are expert-led and address the pressing matters impacting the education sector and school business management. Sessions cover finance, funding and income generation, marketing, premises, catering, management and all the acronyms – CPD, HR, ICT, GDPR.
Speakers include practicing business managers, finance and trust directors, CEOs, CFOs, independent consultants, authors… all sector experts and all on-hand to ensure that you have access to the information that you need.
What's in it for you and your school?
It can be hard to take a day out of school, so we know how important it is to make sure that our event is worth a day out of the office. The beauty of the live event is that you have the ability to choose the seminars you attend, ensuring the content is completely relevant for your specific school and unique situation. You know the challenges you and your school face better than anyone, so we provide you with the opportunity to learn more about the areas you need to skill up in in order to further the improvement of your school.
