5 Key takeaways from Bett 2025
Earlier this January in London, Bett 2025 brought together educators, tech enthusiasts, and policymakers to explore the latest advancements in education technology. We were excited to partake in the conversation, and demonstrate how personalisation, accessibility, AI, and seamless integration makes a real difference in the classroom.
Here are our top five takeaways from this year’s event:
1. With great potential comes great responsibility
AI was the hot topic at Bett 2025, and it’s clear that it’s here to stay. From helping teachers with lesson planning to automating admin tasks, AI is changing education. But with great potential comes great responsibility.
Conversations at Bett also focused on the ethical considerations of AI, including data privacy, GDPR compliance, security, and the risk of bias. Ensuring AI-driven tools are transparent, secure, and fair is essential in helping schools navigate these challenges responsibly.
Protecting student data and ensuring ethical AI use must remain a top priority.

2. Personalisation is key
Every student learns in their own way, and technology is helping educators meet them where they are. Personalisation isn’t just about AI—it’s about providing students with learning pathways tailored to their needs, preferences, and progress. Educators now have more tools than ever to deliver differentiated instruction, offer varied assessment methods, and provide flexible learning resources. The buzz at Bett confirmed what we’ve known for a while – personalisation isn’t just nice to have, it’s essential for student success.
3. Accessibility at the heart
Making education accessible for all was a big talking point at Bett, and rightly so. Whether it’s text-to-speech features, adaptive learning resources, or ensuring platforms meet the highest accessibility standards, breaking down barriers to learning is a shared priority. Bett reinforced that this should always be at the forefront – because every student deserves equal opportunities.
4. EdTech needs to work seamlessly
Teachers want tech that just works. No headaches, no extra steps. That’s why there was a big focus at Bett on interoperability. Making sure that tools fit effortlessly into existing systems, helping schools and institutions adopt new technology without disruption.

5. Collaboration is the key to innovation
If there’s one thing we took away from Bett, it’s that we’re all in this together. The future of education technology isn’t just about AI or personalisation – it’s about working as a team. Schools, educators, tech providers, and policy makers all need to collaborate to make sure digital transformation truly benefits students. Working alongside educators to develop tools that really make a difference is key to meaningful progress.
