About the Conference

What makes a world-class school? There is no single universal definition for world-class school but we can explore the elements that are necessary for world-classness. World-class schools often discuss key factors such as competencies, innovation and characteristics of learners (Educators/ Students) to thrive in an ever-changing global economy.

This year’s MCE Global Conference, themed "Good to Great: What Makes a World-Class School," highlights Marshall Cavendish Education's exceptional role in guiding the Ministry of Education in Singapore and globally toward unparalleled success. Don't miss this opportunity for a transformative day of professional development, where you can dive into MCE’s innovative pedagogy, explore MCE’s Education Model (Good Curriculum, Good School, Good Teachers) and discover how our top-tier teaching and learning materials can elevate your classroom to world-class standards. Join us and unlock the secrets to delivering extraordinary lessons that inspire and engage.
