A conference. An awards night. A members' AGM. Two days built by Edufuturists for the educators actually changing the game.
2026 proved what the Wolfpack wanted — so Uprising grows up for 2027. What was one evening is now a full day together, a night of awards, and a members-only AGM to close it out — three parts, across two days.


Fri 25 June, daytime. Full access to the conference at Manchester College.

Fri 25 June, evening. The Edufuturists Awards at Band on the Wall.

Both days. Conference + awards night, best value.

Sat 26 June, brunch. Members-only, at Band on the Wall.

Provocations, not PowerPoints. Guest speakers, gatherings, and proper space to explore where education is actually heading — plus selected partner workshops woven through the day.

Loud, loose and full of the Wolfpack. Good food, louder company, and the Edufuturists Awards — celebrating the people pushing education forward.

Brunch, plans for the year, and a chance for the Wolfpack to shape where Edufuturists goes next. Members only.

Provocations, not PowerPoints. Guest speakers, gatherings, and proper space to explore where education is actually heading — plus selected partner workshops woven through the day. It's a conference, but run our way.

Loud, loose and full of the Wolfpack. Good food, louder company, and the Edufuturists Awards — celebrating the people pushing education forward, in front of the community that gets it.
Full timings, speakers and session titles land here once confirmed. This is the shape of the two days — check back for the detail.







The daytime conference takes over Manchester College's flagship campus flexible studios, a main auditorium, breakout rooms built for workshops, not lecterns.

25 Swan Street, Northern Quarter, Manchester, M4 5JZ. Both the awards evening and Saturday's AGM brunch are here — a 3 min walk from Shudehill, fully accessible.

Placeholder copy: quiet revolutions happen in classrooms every day — a curriculum rebuilt overnight, a school culture turned around from the ground up. Most of it goes unrecognised.
The Edufuturists Awards exist to name it, in a room full of people who understand exactly how hard it is.







Voting for finalists opens later in the year.
