who's organising 
future fwd?

Future Fwd is organised by Warwick Schools Foundation, where the Foundation Principal, Richard Nicholson, is passionate about paving the way for future generations to succeed, and how we can support by listening to them about their priorities.

​

“Society is navigating through a pandemic and post-pandemic era, with significant implications for education and the workplace. I believe schools must reflect these seismic changes in our approach to education, otherwise we will lose our relevance, and risk being disconnected from the communities we serve."

 

"Our aim is to bring together passionate people, who want to listen to the Next Gen, and share powerful ideas to enable them to succeed. To help us in this journey we’ve curated a brilliant menu of inspiring speakers who we know will challenge and provoke thought and discussion. We have reimagined the conference format to be inspirational, collaborative and innovative. We invite anyone who’s passionate about this to register."

inspiration, collaboration and innovation

Future Fwd is built around three core values: Inspiration, collaboration and innovation.

​

Our team of experts will deliver inspiring talks across our themes, and participants will work together to move creative ideas forwards.
