What is IncludEd?
IncludEd is the largest education conference dedicated to inclusion. It is open to any one thinking about inclusion in schools and academies across the United Kingdom - and beyond!
This year, following the publication of The Difference’s problem report, the theme of the conference is Who is Losing Learning? A line up of over 30 speakers and experts from schools, academies, Local Authorities, Multi-Academy Trusts and experts from outside the school gates come together on Saturday 11th January 2025 at the Institute of Education, UCL, close to London Euston.
What is IncludEd for?
Since its inception in 2018, the IncludEd conference has brought The Difference’s community together.
It has become the gateway for a national network of teachers, school leaders, and education practitioners to access professional development, share learning, and seek out support that grows inclusive schools and improves outcomes for all students.
IncludEd 2024 brought together over 600 teachers, leaders, young people and professionals from in and around education - all to explore the question: 'How do we become more inclusive?’.

An inspiring day…
The Difference knows that IncludEd needs to be bigger and bolder to achieve our aim of supporting inclusion in as many schools as possible.
That’s why this year we are increasing the size and aims of IncludEd 2025, bringing together the most influential school leaders, academics, and experts.
The event is to be held at the Institute of Education, London - just a short walk from Russell Square Underground, and London Euston/King’s Cross train terminals.
