Educators discuss creating the right conditions for success at Cambridge Schools Conference

04 Apr 2019

Education leaders and experts from around the world gathered in Cape Town, South Africa, to discuss the importance of creating a successful school environment at a recent Cambridge Schools Conference.

Hosted at Somerset College, the two-day conference was based on the theme ‘Creating the conditions for success’ and was attended by more than 250 delegates from 132 Cambridge schools based all over the globe.

Through key note speeches, workshops and discussion groups, delegates explored how school leaders and teachers can create the right conditions for success.

Speakers included Christine Özden, Chief Executive, Cambridge International, Professor Jonathan Glazzard, Professor of Teacher Education, Carnegie School of Education at Leeds Beckett University and Amy Burke, a UK-based educational consultant.

Topics covered during the conference included how teachers can create the right conditions in their classrooms, neurological and psychological learning factors and overcoming barriers to learning.

Juan Visser, Cambridge International’s Regional Director for Sub-Saharan Africa, said: 'It has been a privilege to host the global Cambridge Schools Conference here in South Africa for the second time.

'I am extremely pleased to see so many school leaders attend from across Sub-Saharan Africa and around the world.

'It has been a great opportunity for those attending to learn from some inspirational academic leaders and they can confidently take this learning back to their schools to further enhance the great work they are doing there for their students and colleagues.'
