The ISLE Project at ICICTE 2026

The ISLE Project was proudly presented at the International Conference on Information Communication Technologies in Education (ICICTE 2026), held in Rhodes, Greece, from 14–16 July 2026.

Through its poster presentation, ISLE introduced its vision, objectives, and ongoing work to an international audience. The conference attendance list included 75 participants from 15 countries, representing universities, schools, public authorities, research centres, non-profit organisations, and education networks from Europe and beyond.

The poster highlighted ISLE’s whole-school approach to supporting teachers and schools in redesigning primary education through innovative and sustainable learning environments. It also created opportunities for discussion with researchers, educators, policymakers, and education professionals interested in teacher professional development, collaborative learning, and school transformation.

Participation in ICICTE 2026 marked another important milestone in the dissemination of the ISLE Project, strengthening its international visibility and supporting the exchange of ideas with the wider educational community.

We warmly thank everyone who visited the poster and showed interest in ISLE. We look forward to sharing further updates as the project continues to develop resources and support schools across Europe.

Our twin Co-ISLE project!

✨ Another important milestone for the Co-ILE project!

The pilot implementation phase has now been successfully completed in the participating primary schools across Cyprus, Italy, Latvia and Spain, while implementation is still underway in Australia. 🌏

As we move into the next stage of the project, our teams are analysing the pre- and post-implementation data collected from teachers, headteachers and students.

📊This analysis will help us better understand the impact of the pilot implementation across different educational contexts and will contribute to the development of a cross-country impact assessment study and practice report, supporting future initiatives for more innovative, inclusive and effective learning environments.
