Teach Inspire Create Conference

Teach Inspire Create Conference 2026

UAL Awarding Body is delighted to announce that Teach Inspire Create Conference is back for 2026!

About the conference

Creative education has always been about pushing boundaries, challenging assumptions and imagining new possibilities. At a time of rapid change across education, technology and the creative industries, how can we ensure that learners continue to thrive? How can we create opportunities that empower students to think creatively, develop confidence and prepare for their futures?

We will be exploring these important topics at our annual conference Teach Inspire Create so you can explore emerging trends, hear from leading voices and leave with strategies to inspire the next generation of creative learners to succeed.
