Update: British Council events and exhibitions

The health and safety of our clients, visitors, students, partners and staff remains our top priority.

In March 2020 International Education Services took the decision to cancel all of our activities requiring UK or international travel, this included international fairs, exhibitions and both inbound and outbound UK visits.

Face to face international event and exhibition activities will remain “closed for recruitment” for the foreseeable future however we will continue to monitor the situation closely on a region by region basis. Our global network ensures that we have the most up-to-date information relevant to the UK education sector and we will continue to do all that we can to support education colleagues over the next few months; our in-country teams remain ready to assist.

Our digital and virtual activities remain operational and can be found here. We continue to be committed to support international student recruitment and we also continue to seek alternative e-solutions to help connect UK education providers with prospective students and their families.
