Title:

Implementing and Sustaining School Learning, Teaching and Leading Improvement: Setting the scene

Nugget of Learning: A school from our network shares a key insight into a collaborative leadership practice they find impactful.

In this first session for the year we set the scene for our learning together in 2025. Our learning focus for the year is leadership to ensure the implementation and sustaining of school practice to positively impact learning and teaching. School teams refer back to the focus or foci identified for development during 2024 and the status of these at the close of 2024. Teams reflect on their key learnings from the ELN professional learning sessions from last year and how these may be applied in teaching and leading practices to align with identified/ emerging as priority areas for development in 2025. The Leadership Capability Framework is a key resource is underpinning learning in our 2025 workshops with the focus on: Building and sustaining collective leadership and professional community.

Listening Deck: At the end of each session this term you pair with someone from another school to share impactful practices and to develop closer across school connections.

Data Informed School Practices

In this session we focus on unpacking and using data to support and inform school teams as they formulate and habitually review their 2025 Action Plan. The purpose is to inform teams’ on-going implementation, sustaining, and data informed adaption of leading and teaching actions. School teams bring data to the session as evidence to inform school teams’ learning conversation regarding the on-going implementation and sustaining of leading and teaching actions.
