Schools for 21st-Century Learners
Strong Leaders, Confident Teachers, Innovative Approaches
Successful education systems are those that promote leadership at all levels, thereby
encouraging teachers and principals, regardless of the formal positions they occupy,
to lead innovation in the classroom, the school and the system as a whole. This report
summarises evidence from the OECD Teaching and Learning International Survey and the
OECD Programme for International Student Assessment that underpins the three themes
of the 2015 International Summit on the Teaching Profession: school leadership, teachers’
self-efficacy and innovation in education. It also offers examples from around the
world of how some schools are introducing innovative ways of teaching and learning
to better equip students with the skills they need to participate fully in 21st-century
global economies.
