Educators from The British School of Tashkent joined over 200 international teachers and leaders from Nord Anglia Education schools at the SEAMEI Teaching & Learning Conference 2025, held in Abu Dhabi. The event brought together outstanding minds in education to explore leadership, resilience, innovation, and inclusion — key elements shaping the future of teaching and learning. 

The three-day conference provided an invaluable platform for teachers from across the region to collaborate, share best practices, and gain fresh insights to bring back to their classrooms. 

A transformative experience for The British School of Tashkent educators 

The conference offered educators from The British School of Tashkent an opportunity to engage with peers, explore forward-thinking teaching strategies, and strengthen their approach to student learning. 

“The conference was a fantastic opportunity to meet with other professionals from other schools and share best practice. For me personally, learning about different resources we can use in the classroom, and the data we can gather from them, was the most beneficial part of whole event. It can really guide us in ensuring all of students are happy and making good progress” - Alexander Blount-Hogg, Deputy Head of Primary.

Driving innovation in teaching and learning

 Nord Anglia Education places continuous professional development at the heart of its strategy, ensuring educators have the tools and knowledge to enhance student learning. The conference explored AI in education, neurodiversity, inclusive leadership, and other key topics shaping the future of teaching.  

The event also focused on Nord Anglia’s groundbreaking research into metacognition — helping students develop an awareness of their learning processes to improve problem-solving and critical thinking.  

“Through leadership discussions at the conference, our academic teams explored how to apply Nord Anglia’s latest research on metacognition," said Rob Walls, Head of Middle East Schools at Nord Anglia. "By embedding metacognitive strategies in the classroom, we help students develop the skills to become independent, self-directed learners. In offering a forward-thinking education, we are supporting skills development with our Nord Anglia educational framework centred around the continuous growth of the 6 Cs—ensuring our students evolve into critical, creative, committed, and curious learners, while collaborating compassionately both in and outside the classroom."  

Strengthening our global community 

For The British School of Tashkent educators, the conference wasn’t just about professional development — it was also a chance to collaborate with peers from around the world and contribute to Nord Anglia’s global education community. 

The knowledge and strategies gained at the SEAMEI Teaching & Learning Conference 2025 will continue to shape learning experiences at The British School of Tashkent, ensuring that students benefit from the latest advancements in education.
