Event overview

International schools in Japan are communities built on transience. Teachers move. Students graduate and scatter across continents. And yet the best of these schools develop something rare: a culture of genuine knowing – of students, of families, of each other – that holds through the change. AI is putting that culture to the test.

The School Leaders Innovation Forum: Tokyo brings together leaders from across Japan to work through what that means in practice – for curriculum, for safeguarding, and for the decisions their schools are facing right now. Hear from Chasen Stahl and Kristen Pollard, and join peer-led exchanges with leaders navigating the same pressures.

Your seat is free because the work matters. We move further when we move together.

Designed for:

  • Heads of School and Principals
  • Academic Coordinators
  • Directors of Learning and Innovation

Frequently asked questions

None at all. Your seat is completely free. The School Leaders Innovation Forum: Tokyo is made possible by Toddle, and we believe access to high-quality professional learning should never come at a cost to the people doing the work.

The School Leaders Innovation Forum (SLIF) is a free, in-person professional learning event for leaders of international schools in Japan. Hosted at AOBA International School’s Bunkyo Campus on Friday, June 5, 2026, SLIF Tokyo brings together heads of school, coordinators, and curriculum leaders for a focused day of learning, peer exchange, and connection.

To build connections with leaders who understand your context, learn from those who have tackled the same questions, and spend a day thinking about the things that matter most — with people who care about them as much as you do.

Wonderful – we’re so glad you’re coming. Look out for a confirmation email with everything you need for the day, including venue details and practical information. Feel free to share the event with a colleague you think should be in the room. The more perspectives, the richer the conversation.

We will send you detailed directions and everything you need to find us in the week before the event. Keep an eye on your inbox and make sure our emails aren’t landing in your spam box.

We’d love for you to join us for the full day of learning, connection, and conversation. That said, we know school leaders have packed schedules, and your time is valuable. You’re absolutely welcome to attend the sessions that align best with your interests and availability. Your presence, even for part of the day, would be truly appreciated.

Absolutely. A full lunch is provided, along with snacks and hot drinks during breaks. At the end of the day, we are also hosting a mixer so the conversation can continue in a more relaxed setting.

All participants who attend the School Leaders Innovation Forum: Tokyo will be provided with a learning certificate from Toddle.
