About this webinar

In this webinar we talk to Catalina Gardescu, Director of Admissions, Marketing & Communications and Jan Humpleby, Primary School Principal at Copenhagen International School (CIS).

We hear how Copenhagen International School is designing the school for the future – by educating champions of a just and sustainable world. We explore, by focusing on the areas of Belonging, Agency, Time and System, how the school is preparing students of all ages to take their place in a complex global world. This conversation shares best practices from Copenhagen International School about planning ahead with these future designs in mind, as well as explaining how important the Primary Years Programme is for a successful IB programme completion.
