Description

When building professional capital in a school pull when you can….push if you must…..nudge constantly (Hargreaves, 2014)

This four day course across 2018 is for members of the school leadership team (principals, deputies, HOLAs etc) who are interested in working with their staff to better engage and improve the achievement of the cruising capable students, the top 40%.  Ideally, at least two people from a school works best with the collaborative planning aspect of the course.

 
According to international testing over the past 16 years Australia systematically went backwards, both relatively and absolutely… A deep analysis of the PISA decline shows that Australia has more cruising schools and students than other countries.  The major source of variance in the decline is among our top 40% of our students (Ainsley & Gebhart in Hattie, J. p.4, 2016)

This practical course is aimed at building a whole school/department improvement plan, using aspects of the National School Improvement Tool to audit and as provocation. The course is a cumulative one which provides action goals between sessions to facilitate reflection and change.
