WA Education Summit 2026 #WAES26

The WA Education Summit returns in 2026 for its seventh year, bringing together school leaders, IT managers and educators from across Western Australia and beyond for a day of insight, collaboration and future-focused thinking.

This year’s theme, From Digital Risk to Resilience: Navigating Threats and Building Stronger Schools, explores how education communities can confidently adopt technology and AI while strengthening digital safety, governance and resilience. As schools face increasing cyber risks and rapid technological change, the Summit provides practical guidance to help education leaders respond with clarity and confidence.

Held at Optus Stadium, the event features keynote presentations from Yasmin London, a global expert in digital safety and resilience, and Dawid Naude, founder of Pathfindr and a leading voice on artificial intelligence. The day will also include a locknote session from Chris Tanti, offering powerful insights into leadership and navigating change.

Attendees will hear real-world case studies from schools, engage with leading education technology partners, and connect with peers from across the sector. Your registration includes morning tea, lunch and post-event networking drinks, making the Summit a valuable opportunity to learn, connect and shape the future of education.
