Dear Principals and Teachers,

Join LTE for Local and Global Insight into Education

Hong Kong Education City (HKEdCity)'s annual premier educational event Learning & Teaching Expo (LTE) (www.LTExpo.com.hk) is a platform for teaching professionals around the region to gather and share ideas. This year, LTE takes place from 11-13 Dec, and education experts from Hong Kong to overseas will share their insights into various aspects in education, from innovative eLearning to inclusive education, and from school leadership to game-based learning.

'Global Horizon on Education: A Future Perspective' is the first theme of the main stage presentations. Renowned education experts and government officials from Hong Kong, the USA, mainland China, Singapore and South Korea will talk about education policies in different districts and countries, so as to provide a global vision for the local education sector.
