2025 Executive Roundtable for Independent School Heads

Join EAB’s annual roundtable for heads of schools where you’ll have the opportunity to network and discuss shared challenges with peers and EAB experts in a focused, uninterrupted setting. During this in-person gathering, comprised of two half-days, attendees will discuss recent research on key strategic topics facing the sector. Agenda details are forthcoming.

2024 attendees noted that it was valuable to be able to connect with other heads of schools and be able to ask questions that are top of mind to their peers.

Agenda Highlights

During our time together, we’ll discuss the following topics. As this research is ongoing, topics may be subject to change.

The Resilient Independent School: How Heads Can Navigate the Forces Shaping the Next Chapter of Independent School Education

Independent schools are navigating a rapidly shifting landscape where political, social, and technological forces are creating constant uncertainty. EAB’s new dynamic strategy service for independent schools helps leaders anticipate which external trends are most likely to impact their long-term vision and strategy. Leaders will gain insights and new data from market experts, structured resources and scenario planning tools to use in board meetings, and no-regret actions to keep their vision in focus and their school moving forward.

Join other heads of school for:

• Deep-dive discussion on emerging trends and “next practices”
• Interactive table-top exercises to explore critical issues
