This year’s festival promises to be bigger and more thought-provoking than ever, featuring two internationally renowned keynote speakers:

Professor Yong Zhao

A globally recognised leader in educational change and innovation, Professor Zhao has shaped the way we think about education’s role in a rapidly evolving world. As a Foundation Distinguished Professor at the University of Kansas and a professor at the Melbourne Graduate School of Education, his research and insights into global education, student agency and creativity have influenced policymakers and educators worldwide. His work challenges conventional schooling and inspires new ways of thinking about how we prepare students for the future.

Sir Anthony Seldon

Sir Anthony Seldon is a leading British historian, educator and author. He is the Founding Director of Wellington College Education and previously served as the head of Wellington College and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Buckingham, holding numerous advisory and board positions as well. Sir Anthony has authored or edited over 50 books on contemporary history, including biographies of recent British Prime Ministers, and has been instrumental in expanding Wellington College Education's global presence with schools in China, Thailand, India, and soon Indonesia, Singapore and South Korea. He will be sharing his reflections on the impact of AI on education.

 

But the China Festival of Education is more than just keynote sessions. It’s a vibrant and interactive event that features:

 

 

Dynamic workshops led by top educators and practitioners

 

Engaging student performances showcasing creativity and talent

 

Networking opportunities to connect with fellow educators from across China and beyond

 

Interactive sessions exploring the latest trends and research in education

 

Since its launch in 2015, the China Festival of Education has grown into a leading platform for professional development, attracting over 1000 educators each year. This year, we are set to build on that success, celebrating the power of education to transform lives.
