SLT Conference

Nothing can replace human face-to-face interaction and how sharing big ideas and experiences on educational strategies will promote world peace and harmony. 

Attending the Nord Anglia SLT conference has broadened my network, promoted a deeper understanding of the true purpose of Education, uncovered new learnings, and reinforced existing best practices. Being globally connected, aspiring for the well-being of society, resilience, purpose, innovation, and creativity using technology in education leverages young learners to be reflective and collaborative in nature.  

The takeaway was very thought-provoking – A deeper reflection on what the key challenges that our students would face in the future and what can we now do to minimize them. The future seems to be fragile but how can we, as educators train the next generation to handle it with care?
