Q10 Conference 2020
“Our society cannot afford a two-tiered system in which the affluent have access to superior education, while everyone else is subjected to a dull and incoherent classroom experience. Academic excellence, educational equity, and fairness demand a strong foundation of knowledge for all learners.”
Ed Hirsch
The Quantum 10 – Equity in Education conference addresses educators and leaders in K12 and Higher Education Institutions. During this 3-day conference, we will introduce you to the mindset behind the Quantum 10 framework, and lead you through the different phases so that you can become a champion of equity in education.
The purpose of this conference is to:
