What do children learn at school in Japan? How do schools in New Zealand approach inclusion? Who holds teachers accountable in Estonia? Join Loic Menzies from the new Centre for Education Systems (CES) to hear what CES learned from research comparing education policies on curriculum, accountability, and inclusion across 14 countries worldwide. Loic’s presentation will be followed by an interview and Q&A.

The Centre for Education Systems is a brand-new organization set up to help governments, advisors, and campaigners learn from education systems around the world.

Where the OECD tracks system outcomes via PISA, CES seeks to explain how different approaches work.
