How Portal Schools is Merging High School and College With Iván Cestero
The current education systems are not doing enough to prepare children for the real world. The syllabi are outdated and out of touch with what modern industries actually need.
The rise of tech within the education space has opened up opportunities for total innovation and disruption, to offer learners and their families what traditional education systems can’t.
Iván Cestero is a lifetime educator and innovator with a passion for purpose-driven and creative work. He has years of experience in learning design, new school models, startups, ecosystem building, and community engagement. Iván is committed to building the future of higher education that is holistic, personalized, hybrid, with opportunities for travel and real-world learning in partnership with industries and communities.
More recently, Iván has become the head of strategic partnerships at Portal Schools.
Portal Schools delivers high school, college, and career immersion all on one campus. Their intentionally diverse communities and personalized approach to learning empowers students to find their voice, blaze their own trail, and thrive as engaged citizens.
They are on a mission to revolutionize the future of schools to dramatically impact the pursuit of happiness and economic mobility for the next generation.
Portal Schools believe that lifelong learning is key to young people identifying the things that most interest them. Having safe spaces to take risks, try new things, and fail are a huge part of learning so students can find their life’s purpose - as individuals, citizens, and members of the global workforce.
At this inspirEd event, Iván will share his insights on the ever-changing education landscape, and share his learnings about new approaches to high schools and college education.
