FROM OUR CHAIR

Anthony Rowlands

FOBISIA Chair - March 2019 to present Principal, British International School Ho Chi Minh City

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the latest edition of our termly newsletter. As we reflect on the past few months, we have much to be proud of as a Federation

Firstly, I am delighted to report that our 29th Leadership Conference in Bangkok was a resounding success. We were thrilled to welcome so many of you to the event, which provided a fantastic opportunity for us to share best practices, exchange ideas and network with colleagues from across the region. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to all of our speakers, school delegates, sponsors, exhibitors, and of course, John Gwyn Jones MBE our CEO and the team at HQ for making the Conference such a memorable occasion.

In addition to our Conference, we have also been busy organising a range of events; it has been heartening to see so many of our Member Schools host and participate in these events and make the most of the opportunities they offer to enhance the experiences of their students and staff.

Looking ahead, we have an exciting programme of events planned for the coming months, including student sports events, educational offerings, JAWS and the Safeguarding Conference in Jakarta in May. We are committed to continuing our work in supporting and promoting British-style education across the region and to providing our Members with the resources they need to succeed.

As always, I welcome your feedback and suggestions for how we can further improve and develop our Federation. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with me or any of our team if you have any ideas or suggestions you would like to share.

Thank you for your ongoing support and commitment to FOBISIA.
