Focussing on Deliberate Leadership Actions

As part of working with school leaders in The Manaiakalani Programme Outreach cluster of schools in Tairāwhiti we looked at Barriers, Enablers and Deliberate Leader Actions that could help to move the understanding and implementation of the pedagogy we use: Learn, Create, Share (LCS).

Learning Stations in Secondary Schools

Okay, I thought learning stations was such a 'primary' idea that it could never work with older learners.

Turns out I was way wrong...

Progress on Transitioning Learners

I am slowly distilling my aims for my Google Education Innovation project. This is taking me a long time as I seem to be stuck on Learn, Create, Share and Cybersmart learning. A great pedagogy and curriculum respectively, however, I think they are only a part of what I need to think about rather than the whole. 

I want to see learners transition well from primary to secondary school and to help schools, teachers and learners to do this. 

In the year I am formally focussing on this project, what can I expect to achieve?
