Chadwick to host meeting of overseas schools

Chadwick International will host the Korea Council of Overseas Schools on March 11, officials said Monday.

The KORCOS is a nonprofit, nonsectarian organization of educators from overseas currently located in Korea. This year’s conference, under the theme “Start with Why,” will bring together educators to share their practices while joining efforts on educational topics, according to school officials.

The conference will also invite prominent educators, including Bambi Betts, Richard Cash and Diedre Fischer, to share their expertise.

Betts, the director of Principals’ Training Center for International School Leadership, will host workshops on assessing classrooms and leadership for teachers.

Cash, an expert on curriculum coordination and program administration, will host workshops on “differentiated instruction for the 21st century.”

Fischer is an education consultant for DF Education, and her workshop will be on women in leadership.

The campus of Chadwick International is located in Songdo, Incheon.

Registration can be made online at the KORCOS website (www.korcos2016ci.net/register.html). For more information visit KORCOS website (www.korcos2016ci.net/) or email KORCOS at education@korcos.net.
