TEDx SISS Youth 2026 is the annual academic event of Sydney School (SISS) – a platform where students raise their voices as the new generation, demonstrating sharp thinking and stage confidence.
Over the past three years, Sydney School (SISS) has built professional stages that meet the standards of renowned TEDx Talks, enabling a wide range of ideas to truly “take flight” in the spirit of “ideas worth spreading”.
To help students become familiar with the competition and bring their ideas to life, SISS has developed a well-structured process with multiple rounds.
Kick-off sessions – Forming initial orientations
To help Jaguars fully grasp their “race map” and be ready for their journey to conquer TEDx SISS Youth 2026, SISS organized kick-off sessions, where students were oriented and provided with essential information about the competition.
This was also a space for Jaguars to meet, interact, and connect with mentors and peers. From there, students were awakened in confidence, inspired, and further empowered to raise their voices as future leaders.

Once ideas were formed and confidence was built, Jaguars confidently expressed their unique perspectives along with sharp arguments through authentic personal stories that touched the audience’s hearts. Centering around three main topics, each presentation brought different perspectives and emotional nuances to the audience. It was the combination of a strong academic foundation, students’ rich experiences, and the School’s advanced educational approach. Every voice raised on stage reflected serious preparation, continuous training, and the students’ courage in facing challenges.
Final Round – Affirming themselves and shining bright
After a thorough evaluation process, the 11 most outstanding Jaguars advanced to the Final Round with confidence and skills refined through each stage of the competition.
