SOLF 2025 welcomed 120 school operations leaders at The Dharmawangsa Jakarta.
School operations is under real pressure. Leaders are expected to deliver higher standards with tighter resources, more risk, and louder parent expectations.
Risk and governance pressure is rising
Licensing, compliance, incidents and reputation require stronger systems, clearer accountability and better preparation.
Financial complexity is rising
Schools must manage costs, procurement, sustainability and resources more carefully while continuing to improve quality.
Trust is harder to earn
Parents, staff, regulators and communities expect school operations to be faster, clearer and more reliable.
Operations is no longer just the back office. It is the engine behind school credibility, resilience and sustainable growth.
SOLF is designed for the leaders who run the systems behind learning.
Limited invited seats: A small number of School Directors and Principals may be invited to support cross-functional alignment, not to dominate the room.
SOLF 2026 is built for practical exchange. The day combines strategic plenary discussion, focused expert panels, a leadership spotlight, a crisis-management fireside chat and curated networking.
The aim is simple: useful conversations, practical lessons and clear next steps for school operations leaders.
