Introduction to Boys Schools, created by the IBSC and One Schoolhouse, is designed as an orientation to boys’ schools and all-boys learning environments for newly hired teachers. Participants connect and collaborate with each other to explore best practice and research in boys’ schools classrooms. Moreover, participants learn from panels of school heads, alumni, experienced teachers, and new teachers, and therefore are introduced to community members and leaders from around the world.
