#exabytes18 - The 3rd annual conference that inspires, supports and promotes best use of technology in education.

#exabytes18 is exa.foundation's annual conference hosted in West Yorkshire, first established in 2016. Designed by teachers for teachers; it provides opportunities to discover effective pedagogies, experience high-quality hands-on workshops and connect with teachers from across the UK, in a luxurious venue with great transport links. There are no product demonstrations or sales presentations.

We're committed to delivering terrific value-for-money as well as value for your time. We keep ticket prices lower than those for other CPD events/conferences and all sessions are delivered by experienced educators. All tickets are heavily subsidised by Exa Education and cost just £50+vat per delegate, discounted to £10+vat to customers of Exa Education and £0 for presenters.

#exabytes18 promises a programme that is packed-full of inspiring keynotes and engaging workshop sessions that support the practical aspects of using technology in the classroom as well as exploring the research behind it, to an audience of teachers and leaders in education (5-18yrs). Expect to be inspired with practical ideas, show-casing how technology can be used effectively to reduce teacher workload, impact positively on pupil outcomes and engage all learners.

Our 2018 conference programme features 4x inspiring keynote presentations (to be announced), and will be published here when confirmed. We've analysed feedback from our previous conferences to ensure that this year's programme is even better.
