It'll include expert speakers, live discussions, interactive activities and new technologies

Tomorrow's World is bringing together parents, educators, education leaders, policymakers and other key stakeholders to explore the opportunities, challenges and possibilities presented by technology in education.

The conference will look at how emerging technologies — including artificial intelligence — can support learning, inclusion and engagement while ensuring that the needs, safety and wellbeing of children and young people remain at the centre.

Included across the day will be expert speakers, live discussions, interactive activities as well as a chance to see some of the new technologies shaping learning now and into the future.

Speaking on Kildare Today, advocacy services manager for the National Parents Council, Carmel O' Shea, says they're looking forward to welcoming people to Kildare:

"We love doing conferences in schools, it's brilliant to be invited to Kildare, it's a fabulous, new, big bright school just outside Kildare Town."

"It's a lovely big school, so there is plenty of space, the best place to register is on our website at npc.ie," she added.

People will be welcomed into the school from 10:30am, while the conference will begin at 11:00am.
