As educators, one of the most common calls to action heard is “schools must change” and “we can’t continue to deliver education using the same old model”. But change and innovation in schools is not an easy process. If it were then everyone would have already changed.
    The Global Education Leadership Summit is a unique event that brings together schools from around the world, who have already implemented substantial systemic change to one or more area of the traditional educational model, to share their stories with schools that are interested in change. The conference aims to equip them with ideas & strategies that they could implement to lead innovation initiatives at their institutions.
    Along with inspiring short talks, incisive panel presentations participants had the opportunity to attend workshops focussing on network leadership, applied learning, experiential learning, schools-within-school programs and entrepreneurship education.
    Schools share their innovation stories, including the challenges, mistakes, surprises, and rewards they have encountered and experienced along the way.
