Schools Events Calendar
Learn, share best practice, and network with peers across the sector.
We are pleased to share our Schools Events Calendar for the 2025/26 school year.
Between this autumn and next summer, we will host a series of in-person events, providing opportunities to gain insights, ask questions and exchange ideas with your peers and fellow leaders at independent schools and global educational businesses.
Please note that these events are free of charge and are the Farrer’s Schools Group’s way of staying in touch with our valued clients and providing you with expert advice.
Our events are for Heads, Bursars and Finance Directors, Chairs of Governors, HR professionals, in-house lawyers or clerks (or equivalent roles). Please do explore the calendar and use the corresponding RSVP links.
Places are limited, so we recommend registering early.
All events will take place at our offices: Farrer & Co, 66 Lincoln's Inn Fields, London, WC2A 3LH.
As well as our in-person events, we host webinars and seminars on key legal issues throughout the year. You will receive further information on how to register for these as they are scheduled.
If you have any questions or require further information, please contact Chloe Mitchener.
