Accessing high quality PD is so hard for regional schools. 5 superstar teachers from Ararat West travelled to Melb today to learn about responsive teaching thanks to the legend @BronRyrieJones Can we get her here in person? 🙏 We are in the draw! #responsiveteaching25 Go West!

Watching the Victorian Prins Conference online. @JennyDonovan2 nailing it! This is music to my ears. Project Follow Through, what is and isn’t explicit teaching, MTSS. Victoria is on the right track. Bravo @BenCarrollMP 🙌🙌🙌

How could you resist this team, working on their playbook after school in the last week of this marathon Term 2? Still smiling! They definitely deserve a complimentary workshop 😉 #AraratWest 🙌 #PlaybookProject24

I sent this in an email about maths facts to staff - almost listened to every episode!

@PamelaSnow2 @HelenProulx2 Thanks for keeping that blog post alive Pam! Helen, the BL schools that contact me are incredibly concerned about their reading data. That’s often what prompts contact. Data comes in many forms - three powerful quotes from this term below:

Took your advice @EminaMcLean Ballarat City Network prins all getting a copy of Leverage Leadership 2.0 at our first meeting on Feb 14th. Step 1: Data-driven Instruction (Ch 1) and Student Culture (Ch 5). Let’s see where it takes us! Excited is an understatement 🌟

It’s school holidays in Vic, Aust. and I’m at the beach but I can’t stop reading this book @karinchenoweth Every educational leader needs a copy. Can’t recommend it highly enough. THANKYOU

Driving (again), listening (again)!
