  The school showcases
  These are an important element of the conference enabling participants to share practical examples of
  innovation. We are looking to showcase schools across our networks that have innovative practice to
  share in one of the following areas. Please indicate the area/s on the attached application form.
         1.        What are the global competences we should be developing in our young people?
         2.        What curriculum content do we need to support the development of global competence?
         3.        How can the needs of all students, including those with complex learning difficulties, be met
                   in 21st century schooling?
         4.        How can new technologies support learning?
         5.        How does social entrepreneurship fit into 21st century schooling?
         6.        How do we actively engage all students in their learning?
         7.        How does any of these areas impact leadership and change management?

  The themes listed above are suggestions. If you have content for a school showcase that you think fits
  with the overall conference theme, please do not hesitate to complete the showcase application form.

  Funding for international school showcases
  A small fee will be payable to those who contribute a showcase. Due to variable delegate packages and

  There is no funding available for a second speaker, but if your colleague is attending the event and
  would like to support the showcase delivery, please complete the co-presenter details on the form.

  possible. After the first deadline has passed (8 November), the iNet team will select up to half of the

  December). If you have not been successful in phase one we will consider your application in phase two.
