Most efforts at school reform run a new program through the existing system and wonder why it won't scale. What if the system itself is the problem, and that our real options are to transform, replace, reassemble, expand, or just dissolve the existing way we do schooling?

A panel of leading thinkers and actors in the sector will share five visions of the educational future.
