About Sketch Group
Sketch Group helps schools bring their thinking to life — visually. Using strategic visual assets and collaborative engagement experiences, they help schools sketch their vision and policies, capture professional development days, and visualise their core values.
The result is a shared understanding that’s easier to communicate, remember and build on — across staff, students and the wider school community.
We are excited to partner with Sketch Group and look forward to showcasing their unique approach to visual thinking at the National Education Summit Melbourne 2026.
