International Inspiration Wild Search Roundtable on Creating Great British Schools Internationally
Those leading independent schools’ overseas endeavours were brought together along with other experts in this area for a roundtable discussion yesterday.
Themes covered included finding the right partnership model, understanding regulations and how they apply, managing risk and approach to language.
Participants welcomed the recent policy paper from the government on international education strategy and said it was promising that the government and the British Council were now more supportive.
It was suggested that, although there was a political and reputational risk with establishing in another market, there is also a risk of not looking to diversify income overseas.
