Second hat-trick of award shortlists for tech innovator

Blackburn-based Learning by Questions (LbQ) has been shortlisted in three award categories for the second time in as many months.

The education tech specialist has been shortlisted in the ETIH (EdTech Innovation Hub) Innovation Awards 2026 in the categories of Best Digital Learning Platform for Schools, Best Teacher Empowerment Tool and EdTech Company of the Year (UK).

Globally, the awards have received more than 140 submissions across EdTech, AI and workforce learning, to highlight and celebrate the scale and real-world impact of EdTech innovation shaping the future of education.

These latest award shortlists for LbQ follow the business also being shortlisted last month in three categories for the forthcoming 2026 Education Resources Awards. In 2025 the business was winner of the Primary Resource or Equipment – ICT category in the same awards, for its SATs Springboard product.

“It’s so rewarding for our team to see continued recognition of the difference made by our solutions,” said Greg Adam, managing director of Learning by Questions.

“The judges for these awards have reviewed submissions based on innovation, adoption and impact, with a focus on how solutions are being used in practice. So, these nominations confirm that we’re continuing to focus on all the right areas, to deliver positive impact in the classroom for both for children and teachers.”

Winners of the ETIH Innovation Awards 2026 will be announced Monday 11 May.
