Minister for Education, Skills and Employment, Andrew Turner, will be attending the Education World Forum 2026 in London. Minister Turner is scheduled to depart the island on 10 May and will return on 23 May 2026.
Minister Turner will join education and training ministers from around the world, alongside key multilateral organisations and industry partners, to explore how education can be reimagined to unlock opportunities for growth. Throughout the forum’s plenary sessions and workshops, he will engage with four interlinked themes: peace, planet, purpose, and pathways.
The Education World Forum underscores that education is central to navigating these intersecting challenges, equipping learners with the values needed to build sustainable societies.
Beyond the formal forum programme, Minister Turner will hold a series of bilateral meetings with officials to discuss strategic partnerships and explore solutions tailored to the island’s specific educational needs.
During the Minister’s absence, the Portfolio for Education, Skills and Employment will be overseen by the Minister for Safety, Security and Home Affairs, Gillian Brooks.
