2017 Conference Themes

ICSEI 2017 will be held in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The theme for ICSEI 2017 is “Collaborative Partnerships for System-Wide Educational Improvement.”

This theme gives prominence to the importance of partnerships between and among the various participants in international education systems -- students, parents, communities, schools, districts, government and academics -- to inform and impact student learning, practitioner professional learning, and system leadership.

Collaboration at all levels of the education system has been a hallmark of Ontario’s success of the past decade. Ontario is internationally recognized as an equitable, high-achieving and continuously improving jurisdiction focused on large-scale system-wide change in a pre-Kindergarten to Grade 12 publicly funded school system.

Keynote speakers will offer international and local perspectives on systems effectiveness, including successes and challenges along the pathways to improvement.
