What did delegates make of the
2025 EdTech Hubs Summit?
The November 2025 EdTech Hubs Summit brought together educators and leaders from across England,
offering the latest insights, research findings, and networking opportunities.
The agenda focused on strategic leadership, effective pedagogy,

A key highlight was the Live Lesson demonstration, which models effective Teaching and Learning
using a 1:1, on-demand device ratio.
Embracing the Future: Why Next-Gen Tech is Just "Everyday" for Pupils
'The primary takeaway from the day was the impact of the live lesson, which showcased groundbreaking, fresh technology that had only been introduced into the classroom two weeks prior. The session reinforced the importance of embracing the future and meeting students where they are digitally.'

Unlocking Technology to Empower Teachers and Inspire Pupils
'I think the number one to take away today is that there are always ideas, opportunities, technology to explore, to make things better, for children's learning, to have an impact and to make things easier for teachers as well.'

The Park Federation
NotebookLM in Action: Inspiring the Next Step for Classroom Tech
"It was extremely valuable to watch the children using NotebookLM in the classroom, particularly as we are currently exploring how to trial it ourselves. Seeing it introduced on a small scale so successfully made attending the event worthwhile straight away"

Beyond the Tech: How Live Lessons Boost Classroom Oracy and Engagement
"Seeing a live lesson again really put into context everything I talk about—from the ease with which the teacher created and managed the flow of the session, to how deeply engaged and articulate the children were. Some worry that technology might hinder oracy, but every live lesson or study tour I've attended proves the exact opposite: the students genuinely understand what they are doing and seamlessly integrate the tech into their learning process."
Gifty Francis
EdTech Consultant
Seeing is Believing: Live Demo Proves Tech Works in the Classroom
"Being able to see the live lesson in action was fantastic, especially for anyone who arrived at the summit feeling a bit skeptical. Despite the unfamiliar surroundings, the teachers and children were brilliant, the technology worked seamlessly, and the entire demonstration was a fantastic advert for what we are trying to achieve."
