Manifesto for education change | Connected Principals - 3 views

  • We need to train teachers to know how to maximise benefits of online learning. We need to re-shape online learning space and make it personalised, engaging & suited to the task.
  • Will schools have a role into the future? Yes! Schools should be the core functional, relational communities of society.

  • There are so many better & engaging ways to furnish a space.
  • Leadership roles should match priorities, not history.
  • Students must learn to be engaged learners. Parents need to grow their understanding of the realities their children will face, not re-live their own school experience.
  • Teaching could be about creative direction, rather than about behaviour management.
  • Curriculum should be meaningful, contextual, authentic, integrated, challenge based, relational.
  • We should kill off the one teacher per class model. It is fraught with emotional risks.
  • Students should be given capacity to delve deeply into topics, not punctuated by factory-style bells. Schools need to experiment with far more timetable-less days – opportunities for real life learning.
