Having launched in 2016, British Esports has been providing esports help and support to thousands of individuals and organisations over the past decade. It created the world’s first esports qualifications of their kind – now studied by over 18,000 students across 200+ facilities – and runs the UK’s largest school, college and university esports tournaments. British Esports also operates the National Esports Performance Campus, a space to foster esports excellence.

Now, with its team bigger than ever having made several hires in recent months, it has launched a full turnkey service offering to better assist industry, education and more.

The announcement comes as British Esports has a presence at Bett UK 2026 this week, the world’s biggest education technology exhibition taking place in London.

It comes as British Esports’ own dedicated Esports in Education Summit, runs at Bett UK 2026 on Thursday January 22nd at South Gallery Suite 22. School leadership teams and educators have a unique opportunity to network with like-minded teams, and discover how they can unlock esports to accelerate student engagement, improve attendance, and develop innovative STEM pathways and future-ready skills for young people.

British Esports is also developing a CPD (Continuing Professional Development) offer to help boost the esports knowledge and applied practice of senior leaders, teachers, service departments, and careers, safeguarding and enrichment teams across 30,000+ UK schools, colleges and universities and other organisations. This comes following British Esports’ partnership with the Association of School and College Leaders, which highlights a shared intention to provide professional development opportunities for school leaders.

Kalam Neale, British Esports Head of Education (pictured above), commented: “This new service is about helping organisations make sense of esports and see the real value it can offer. Whether you’re a principal, curriculum leader, IT director, teacher, parent or any other organisation or individual looking to tap into the benefits and power of esports, we want to help. 

“If you want to open an esports facility, access funding, curriculum support, staff training or develop your strategy, our aim is to provide the right solutions that suit your bespoke needs. If you’re exploring how esports could fit into your plans, please reach out – we look forward to speaking with you.”
