International Summit on the Teaching Profession
Each spring since 2011, education ministers, master teachers, national union leaders, and education organization leaders have convened from countries with high performing and rapidly improving educational systems for an international summit on the teaching profession. The purpose of the gatherings is to identify best practices worldwide that strengthen the teaching profession and raise student achievement. Summit organizers, in collaboration with Asia Society, produce a publication each year on key lessons.
