The Pride in Education Conference 2026 is an international gathering of educators, researchers, and advocates dedicated to making education more inclusive for LGBTQ+ students and staff. Held at UCL’s Institute of Education, the event welcomes teachers, school leaders, and policy experts from across the world to share insights and good practice.
It provides a platform to exchange ideas, discuss policy developments, and celebrate schools and colleges that are leading the way in creating safer learning environments.
Sessions cover a wide range of topics — from embedding LGBTQ+ representation across the curriculum to supporting trans and non-binary students, tackling bullying, and developing inclusive school policies. Attendees can participate in panel discussions with educators, academics, and students, gaining practical advice and resources to take back to their own institutions. Workshops emphasise both classroom practice and leadership responsibility, ensuring delegates at every level find value and inspiration.
Pride in Education 2026 continues to champion the belief that visibility in schools transforms lives. By equipping educators with the tools and confidence to teach inclusively, it helps to create spaces where every student feels seen, valued, and empowered to reach their full potential
