Teach Inspire Create Conference

Teach Inspire Create Conference 2025

UAL Awarding Body was delighted to host the Teach Inspire Create Conference at The Brewery, London, on Friday 21 November 2025.

The event brought together inspiring voices from across the education and creative industries.

Keynote speakers included Andre Anderson, Headmaster of art school Freedom and Balance; Eunice Olumide MBE, Scotland’s first Black supermodel and multi-hyphenate alchemist; and Andri Snær Magnason, award-winning author of On Time and Water and climate change activist.

The day also featured a series of interactive breakout sessions. Art Meets Culture explored alternative pathways into creative careers through their Alternative Pathways Map. Alison Lam invited participants to reflect on holding space through the folding of paper lotus flowers. Young people from Leaders Unlocked shared powerful perspectives on racial justice in further education. Kay Michael guided attendees in drafting Letters to the Earth, while Kit Heyam examined LGBTQ+ rights within higher education.

A lively exhibitor fair complemented the programme, giving attendees the opportunity to connect with organisations shaping the future of creative education, including Abacus Creative Resources, CREATE Britain, Into Film, the National Theatre, Creative Debuts and many more.
