iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

It looks like this could be a game changer - something akin to Monday Night Football. I am imagining @joshpd.bsky.social being the Gary Neville to @pepsmccrea.bsky.social version of Jamie Carragher.

Their values-driven leadership is apparent and they are clearly dedicated to a cycle of continuous improvement, never resting on their laurels.

Thank you to the team at Totteridge Academy for hosting a lot of visitors including me yesterday. Hearing the transformation over the last 5 years was inspirational and the impact upon the outcomes for disadvantaged students and their admission pledge is my kind of school.

Is there an RSS feed for those not using Spotify please? Would love a listen.

The more this kind of stuff can be fine for the profession, the better. Absolutely belting.

Seeing how trusts implement IC at scale; hearing an optimistic chat from @saysmiss.bsky.social, @samfr.bsky.social; and eating popcorn with @alexgingell.bsky.social and Ollie Lovell whilst watching model @priteshraichura.bsky.social - the inaugural @steplab.bsky.social conference was a blast.

Interesting wishlist from @frankwnorris.bsky.social and @jonnyuttley.bsky.social: - add contextual factors to Progress 8 - sort out school admissions - stop Key Stage 3 being narrowed / shortened Three ticks from me.

Really enjoyed reading this paper - thanks for sending through. And look forward to unpicking some of it with you next year!

And that's not to say that the asking/listening stops at that point either!

Adam Lewis @teachingalewis.bsky.social · 25/11/2024

I think it's really difficult to judge how long you need to live in the context before enacting any meaningful change. This context is one where time needs to be dedicated to asking/listening, whereas others might need more/less time.

Without meaning to be reductionist, it also allows for easier comparison over time to see impact made.

Then follow up with 'You said, we did' or something similar to build trust.

Whilst rumours of OFSTED changes make me despair, policies like this make me think that education is going in the right direction.

Or the driver. Chicken and egg argument to an extent...

Of all the books I've read this year, @joshpd.bsky.social 's 'Responsive Coaching' has been the best. Thought-provoking, research-informed and actionable, it is a must for anyone linked to PD.

So sad about this. @teacherdevtrust.bsky.social is a brilliant organisation. It will continue to do great work and have impact but it’s a loss to this bit of the system

NEW on the blog! Adam Lewis, one of our amazing NPQ facilitators, asks 'where has learning about leadership gone wrong?' In examining how the NPQ curricula have changed, Adam looks at how our understanding of school leadership has evolved:

Really enjoyed being given the opportunity to write this blog post about why the NPQs are that much better this time round with room still to improve them.

I seem to remember you saying 'never again' after the last one! Can't wait.

Definitely didn't mean it, but potentially one of the greatest episodes of anything ever!

This is such a useful tool Charley - for us, it has helped reaffirm our mission and what we do. Thank you!

Adam Lewis @teachingalewis.bsky.social · 04/09/2024

I'd agree with this. I can't think of a piece of research that has transformed the education system as much nevermind just my own views.

Adam Lewis @teachingalewis.bsky.social · 02/09/2024

The more INSET days that I organise and participate in, the more I've come to realise that less is more. Very few, if any, new ideas and instead more embedding and sustaining of what you've already done.
