10 Pledges of the Summit

1. Education and learning to be democratised

We want to bring the world’s best in education to all educators, schools and learners; not just those who can afford the entry fee.

2. Seeking Social Justice

Understanding that social mobility is a subset of social justice. There are many paths and many journeys. Our aim is to help the world see the importance of all and unpack the barriers to provide solutions.

3. Language and communication needs precision

What we think needs to match what we say. Words matter and how we communicate and represent them is important in education.

4. Learner voice about learning, diversity and sustainability

Providing the global energy stage to embrace diverse youth to host, talk and shine.

5. Raise the global bar

High expectations and responsibility. Teachers, parents, carers and learners all need to align to develop assessment capable learning so we can globally raise the bar.

6. Make culture count

The environment (physical, emotional, social) where we learn best is not always what we have; strategies and approaches to ensure this can be bridged.

7. The Ed in Tech is vital

Using tech for the greater good – reach, scale and impact – new relationships, new efficacies and new pedagogy.

8. Trust building over school building

Relational trust has high impact on student achievement. Developing social sensitivity and our place in society matters.

9. Enhanced networking

Only by focused working together (collective efficacy) can we serve the world with the educational diet they deserve.

10. Learning first and central

Those who can show impact through research, publications, in practice will share this stage; inspiring and contributing to the learning of all globally.
