The Age and Informa have partnered to bring the important conversation around education to Victoria on 27 April 2021 at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre.
As stakeholders of Australian education navigate the disruption caused by Covid-19, students are counting on educators, policymakers and key organisations to continue the open communication and genuine collaboration.
The Age Schools Summit will facilitate insightful discussion to tackle the challenges faced by students and teachers, share stories of resilience, and uncover innovation and inspiration in the future of education in Victoria.
