The 2023/24 school year is all the more special as we have been celebrating the 30th anniversary of the reestablishment of St. Stanislav’s Institution.
We will also mark this occasion with an international conference that will bring together teachers and distinguished speakers to address the challenges of education in the digital age.
You are kindly invited to join us in shaping the future of education.
Anton Česen, director
It is our foremost priority to respond to the challenges and seize the opportunities that lie ahead. We will address both with a conference that will be held at St. Stanislav’s Institution from 9 to 11 May 2024.
The main topics include:
We are delighted to invite teachers, educators, principals, school councillors and other professionals working with the young to share their knowledge and examples of good practice.
In addition to the plenaries, there will be parallel sessions of related papers organised into thematic panels. Sessions will be interactive and will offer the opportunity to network and to exchange ideas.
Join us as we share and learn together!
St. Stanislav’s Institution is one of the biggest and oldest school centres in the country with a 100-year tradition. First established in 1905 as a boys’ secondary school, it has grown into a centre combining a kindergarten, a primary school, an upper secondary school, two student halls and a music school for everyone!
It has been valued as one of the best schools in Slovenia and well-known for its creativity, innovation, international experience, and openness to new ideas. To maintain academic excellence, it is necessary to broaden horizons and offer opportunites for teachers to develop professionally. A conference is, therefore, a great chance.
