THE BASIC FORMULA TO AN EDUCATION OF GOOD QUALITY
EDITORIAL OVERVIEW – ISSUE 35
We know that, for so many of our Reimaginers, August is a moment to leave labours behind, and enjoy some well-earned vacation time. But we want to ensure that every keen applicant is able to join the Reimagine Education process this year – which is why we’ve extended the deadline!
All Reimaginers will now have until Sunday 15th September at 23:59 GMT to finalise their application. We hope that this enables you and your team to participate, and Serena and I remain at your service if you require any assistance.
Beyond this deadline extension, this edition of the newsletter contains another outstanding EdTech Podcast episode, courtesy of Sophie Bailey – how to develop a change-catalyzing institutional leadership team? – and an introduction to the latest university to throw their support behind our initiative: Ukraine’s rising star, Sumy State University
