Honouring the Legacy of John West-Burnham

The life and transformative work of John West-Burnham profoundly touched and enriched the educational community. Following a special symposium held in his memory in November 2023, a dedicated group of friends, colleagues, and family came together to ensure his inspiring thinking and ideas continue to shape the future of education.

The first Inaugural John West-Burnham Memorial Lecture took place in November 2024 at the University of Bedfordshire. It featured a powerful address by Baroness Estelle Morris titled “Rediscovering Childhood and Community.”

Upcoming 2025 Memorial Lecture

We are delighted to announce that the 2025 John West-Burnham Memorial Lecture will be held at the University of Suffolk on November 20th. More details and registration information can be found here

Building the Legacy: The Educational Library

As a central part of the Memorial Activities, John West-Burnham’s family is committed to ensuring his extensive library of educational books is passed on to new generations of leaders and educators.

Support the Memorial Fund

All funds raised from both the Memorial Lecture and the donations for books will directly support the John West-Burnham Memorial Fund and its ongoing activities.
