EdWeek Our Organization
Education. It has the ability to open doors, unlock opportunities, and inspire positive change. But only when it achieves this for everyone will it reach its full potential.

At Education Week, we believe that an equitable—and excellent - education for all students is possible…and we empower you to make it a reality.

As a leading authority in education, we are the comprehensive cornerstone for educators, policymakers, and business leaders alike.

Our goal? To provide high‑quality content about the issues that matter—from all angles, for all audiences. It’s why we work everywhere, from classrooms to capitol buildings. It’s why we serve everybody, from veteran administrators to first-year teachers. And it’s why we tackle everything, from local challenges to national victories.

But breadth alone is not enough. We deliver depth, too. By bringing together exceptional journalism and high-impact research, we give you the knowledge you need to expertly and confidently navigate a complex field. Whether it’s through our independent reporting, original studies, detailed analysis, or the diverse perspectives and voices we elevate, our thoughtful approach offers trusted insights that keep you in the know—and that you can put into action.

Because at Education Week, we don’t merely inform. We generate critical conversations that shine a spotlight on our schools. We hold education’s leaders accountable—equipping them with the right tools, so they can become instruments of change. And we spark transformation, helping our nation support its students—and build a stronger tomorrow.

To inspire and empower.
