Community

We close the conference by harvesting what we have learned — individually and collectively. Participants will have space to reflect on their key insights, intentions for their practice, and connections made.

We will also look ahead: what is the Inside Out Pedagogies community doing next? How can we stay connected and support each other’s work across the year?

See you next year.

Each morning of Inside Out Pedagogies begins with a short communal reflection practice. On the final morning, we extend this into a deeper Practice Circle — a structured space for participants to share what has shifted for them during the week.

What has surprised you? What are you taking home? What question are you leaving with that you didn’t arrive with?

Practice Circles are small-group conversations facilitated by participants themselves, using a simple Quaker-inspired format that values silence, listening, and honest speaking.

What makes a school a genuine learning community — a place where not just students, but teachers, leaders, and parents are all engaged in continuous growth and inquiry?

This keynote explores the conditions under which schools themselves become learning organisations. Drawing on Peter Senge’s work, as well as examples from schools across Central Europe, we examine what leadership, culture, and structure need to look like for a school to truly learn from its own experience.

We open the conference with a community-building session that sets the tone for three days of inquiry, dialogue, and co-creation. Participants will have the opportunity to meet each other, share their intentions for the conference, and co-create the community agreements that will guide our time together.

Come ready to be present, curious, and open.
