Teaching School Learning Forum 2025

Nurturing Excellence in Education


The 2025 Teaching School Learning Forum is designed to inspire, innovate, and invigorate the educational community. This two-day event brings together a diverse array of school leaders, educators, academics, and initial teacher education students, with a particular focus on pathways into education. This year's forum will address the dynamic needs of today’s educational landscape, specifically exploring strategies for workforce attraction and retention. There will be a particular focus on practical approaches and skills for educators at all stages of their career.

In response to the critical need to sustain a robust and dedicated education workforce, key topics will include:

  • Developing attractive career pathways and growth opportunities within the education sector;
  • Creating supportive and inclusive environments that enhance job satisfaction and reduce turnover;
  • Implementing policies and practices that balance workload and foster long-term commitment.
