Raising Standards, Strengthening Schools: Practical Pathways to Quality and Improvement

Join school leaders and quality assurance professionals from across Indonesia and the wider region for a practical one-day conference focused on school improvement, accreditation readiness and sustainable quality enhancement.

📅 Friday 16 October 2026
📍 ANVAYA Beach Resort, Bali, Indonesia

The ASIC Schools Conference 2026 with Headline Partner Google for Education brings together school leaders, quality assurance professionals, governors, curriculum leaders and educators to explore practical approaches to school improvement, accreditation readiness and sustainable quality enhancement.

Designed for international SPK schools, national schools and education providers across Indonesia and the wider region, this interactive one-day event focuses on turning quality standards into meaningful outcomes that strengthen teaching, learning, leadership and student support.

With Google for Education confirmed as headline partner, delegates will benefit from expert insight, peer-to-peer learning, practical tools and a personalised action plan for their own school context.

Why Schools Are Attending

Schools across Indonesia and the wider region face growing expectations from regulators, parents, governing bodies and communities to demonstrate educational quality through evidence and recognised standards.

Recognition Standards Are Increasing

Schools are increasingly expected to demonstrate externally verified quality and continuous improvement through recognised frameworks. ASIC is proud to be one of only four international accrediting bodies formally recognised by the Ministry under Ministerial Decree No. 73/O/2025.

Parent Expectations Continue to Rise

Families are more informed and more selective about safeguarding, wellbeing, academic outcomes and school quality. Schools increasingly need robust systems to evidence their strengths and identify priorities for improvement.

Sustainable Improvement Matters

The strongest schools build quality assurance into everyday practice rather than relying on periodic inspections or compliance exercises. Continuous improvement requires clear frameworks for reflection, evidence gathering and action planning.

What Your School Will Gain

Attending the ASIC Schools Conference 2026 is a practical investment in quality improvement.

Delegates will return with:

- A clearer pathway towards accreditation readiness
- Practical tools to support school improvement activity
- Self-evaluation frameworks and evidence examples
- Templates for leadership teams and quality assurance leads
- New professional connections across the sector
- A realistic 30-day improvement action plan
- Greater confidence in embedding a whole-school culture of quality
- Every session is designed around practical implementation rather than theory alone.

Conference Themes

The programme focuses on three core areas:

✅ Quality Assurance, Enhancement and Accreditation Readiness
