About the Show

Whether your school is day, boarding, boys, girls or mixed, we will provide the perfect venue for you to meet and talk to interested parents. Our first show took place at Kempton Park on Friday 2nd May 2008 and the response from parents and schools the attending schools was fantastic. This will be a must for anyone considering enrolling their children into an independent school. Picking the right independent school is a very arduous and stressful ordeal for parents. Traditionally, parents choose a school depending on its suitability for the child. But how would they go about making that choice? With our presently busy lives, how many appointments will we make to visit such schools? How about visiting all the schools you might be considering for your child without any exerted effort? The Meet the Schools show offers exactly that!

PS Education, one of the sponsors: ‘We are delighted to partner with, and work hand in hand with, the Meet the Schools team who are providing a unique opportunity for parents; they can visit the shows, meet with a large number of schools, ask questions, pick up the literature they need and really benefit from one to one conversations with headmasters and headmistresses from some of the UK’s top Independent Schools. The Meet the Schools show is what we call a one-stop shop! The schools, education advisers, the media as well
as the parents and key decision makers in the Independent education sector will meet under one roof. So do join us and be part of this unique experience’
