    Every day, educators make decisions that require more than subject knowledge; they require judgment, empathy, and reflection.

  4. Registrations Open | 29th ELF - Reimagining Assessments: Measuring What Matters

    Events

    As education evolves, so must the ways we understand and measure learning. Traditional assessments often fall short of capturing the full spectrum of student growth, creativity, critical thinking, and social-emotional development.

    The 29th Educational Leadership Forum, on the theme ‘Reimagining Assessments: Measuring What Matters’, invites educators, education leaders, and changemakers to explore bold, innovative approaches to assessment that reflect the complex, holistic nature of learning.

    From performance-based evaluations to culturally responsive and competency-driven models, this Forum will explore how we can align assessments with what truly matters for learners and society.

    Join us from Apr 30 to May 21 as we engage with leading voices in education to rethink and reimagine the purpose and practice of assessment in shaping more equitable and meaningful learning experiences.
