Who We Are

About The Global Classroom

The Global Classroom is a unique charity and education movement that unites children around the world. Delivered by Scarisbrick Hall School in partnership with the World Health Organisation (WHO) and supported by UNICEF, The Global Classroom is the largest digital classroom in the world. We deliver an extraordinary programme of aspirational events from some of the most influential leaders in their fields to the future leaders of our planet.

The Global Classroom to lead a session at the Global Youth Summit addressing the impact of COVID-19 on young people

The Global Classroom is proud to be leading a session at the Global Youth Summit, held virtually on 23-25 April, inspiring young people to take an active role in the immediate and long-term recovery from the impact of COVID-19.

The Global Youth Summit will see thousands of young people, leaders, policy makers and changemakers come together in one space to discuss the issues facing young people across the world. 

As we look towards a post-pandemic future, the Global Youth Summit is a critical moment for young people to share experiences and solutions that will inspire and support young people to take an active part in the COVID-19 pandemic recovery within their communities and beyond.

The Summit is organized by the Global Youth Mobilization, an initiative by the world’s six largest youth organizations and supported by the World Health Organization and United Nations Foundation.
