Scope

The symposium will involve approximately 10-15 invited participants, including primary school headmasters/principals, school teachers, lecturers in education, political science and law, and registered counsellors. Participants may address one or more themes: translating education policy into school practice; pupil well-being, motivation and socio-emotional development; learner variability, inclusion and equitable support; teacher capacity and classroom practice; school leadership and governance; counselling, safeguarding, child rights and legal responsibilities; and school-family-community collaboration. Selected contributors will be invited to prepare a brief 10-minute presentation based on their professional or research perspective. These presentations will be followed by a structured roundtable/focus-group discussion to identify common concerns, workable strategies and priorities for future research and policy dialogue.
