“Education is the point at which we decide whether we love the world enough to assume responsibility for it, and save it from that ruin which, except for renewal, except for the coming of the new and young, would be inevitable.” Hannah Arendt

Europe has wasted decades miseducating our young people. We have let down repeated generations with an education which is lacking quality, lacking content, lacking morality, and lacking confidence about the future. The results are sadly clear to see: declining standards, teachers who lack authority in the classroom, pupils who know little of our history and values, and generations beset by mental health crises and fear of the future. 

This conference is a chance to understand the scale of the challenge facing European education and how we can restore the proper role of education: where high intellectual standards, knowledge of Europe’s achievements, genuine excellence and creativity, and the authority of teachers and adults takes centre stage – and where extreme ideologies, from transgenderism to digitalisation, are side-lined.
