Inspiration to impact
In 2021, we aim to bring over 100 virtual events to a global audience. 100 of these events will be hosted by schools. The remaining events will be hosted by members of our T4 Alliance – education NGOs and nonprofits and other invited partners. This provided opportunities for schools and organisations to share how they have developed their expertise with the express purpose of inspiring other schools and organisations to understand the journey to excellence.
Dates for World Education Week 2021
World Education Week 2021 was held between Sunday 3rd October – Friday 8th October.

This year, our theme was ‘School Celebration’. This was a worldwide effort to recognise the positive strides schools and education systems have made whilst experiencing challenges throughout the pandemic. We celebrated schools around the world that have developed great expertise that other teachers and schools can emulate.
