Skills AI Can’t Emulate: Leadership decisions for competitive, future-ready schools

As the global education system faces new demands, school organisation leaders are challenged to remain innovative and competitive to retain enrolment, ensure academic success, and prepare students for an increasingly complex world of work.

The World Economic Forum expects 39% of today’s skills to transform by 2030, and career decisions are being made in secondary school, rather than university. This session explores how schools can balance excellence in the classroom with a tangible commitment to future-forward skills for life. Participants will consider the sharper questions being asked by families seeking premium enrolment, and determine how to answer them in a way that positions their organisation to lead.

Presenters will prompt deep questions about the role of AI, the knowledge and competencies we must effectively measure, and the factors that determine institutional quality and reputation. Leaders will leave understanding the key decisions they must make as they innovate towards future-ready excellence.
