    <description>&lt;p&gt;Conversations with International Schools Headtechers and Principals.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;This series asks those who are now Headteachers or who have been headteachers in an International School about the pros and cons of working overseas. 
What advice would they pass on to a new Headteacher coming to an International School in S.E.Asia. What advice would they also give to teachers applying for jobs in the region.
Finally we ask about the benefits of &lt;span class="caps"&gt;ICT&lt;/span&gt; to teaching and learning and what is their vision of &lt;span class="caps"&gt;ICT&lt;/span&gt; in teaching and learning in the future.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
