Lessons from the pandemic: Why digitalisation and inclusivity should be top priority for education

Nothing has hit education systems across the globe harder and more thoroughly than school closures during the COVID-19 pandemic. The disruption has yielded many observations, but two are particularly important. The first is that digitalisation is changing education globally, spurred on by the pandemic. The second is that many students, schools and education systems could not keep up with the change due to an unequal distribution of the right equipment, digital skills and infrastructure.

These issues underpinned the discussions of the 2022 edition of the International Summit of the Teaching Profession, hosted by Spain in Valencia, and organised in collaboration with the OECD and Education International. In this webinar, Andreas Schleicher, OECD Director for Education and Skills, will present the key insights from the Summit and discuss how the teaching profession and governments can work together to take the lessons of the pandemic forward and build better, digital-ready education systems for all.

Speakers include:

-Andreas Schleicher, OECD Director for Education and Skills
-John Bangs, Special Consultant, Education International
