As educators, one of the most common calls to action we hear is “schools must change” and that “we can’t continue to deliver education using the same old model”. But change and innovation in schools, as we all know, is not an easy process.
This unique conference brings together schools from around the world that have already implemented substantial systemic change to one or more areas of the traditional educational model.
These schools will share their innovation stories with you, including the challenges, mistakes, surprises, and rewards they have encountered and experienced along the way. Learn more.
