At Pearson we are committed to supporting schools across the UK and Internationally in projects which explore #curriculum #innovation, especially where centres recognise that the needs of learners are not being met through current learning opportunities. One such project involved Samuel Whitbread Academy, and the launch of a Higher Project Qualification (#HPQ) focused on the study of #BlackHistory. Year 9 students were given a rich, purposeful and personal opportunity to study historical events, people and stories centred around #blackhistory, and were tasked with identifying a connection between themselves and the history of black people, in a wide range of topics from #sport to #STEM. The programme, which continues beyond the pilot year, ensured the purposeful study of #blackhistory was part of the a #curriculum serving the schools students, where their school #values prioritise #equality and #diversity. #Schools interested in exploring HPQs, providing learners opportunity to study #blackhistory beyond the #curriculum, or simply interested to read the case study, can follow the link below: https://lnkd.in/euF4w45V Interestingly, the school received an #Ofsted inspection during the pilot, and a #deepdive took place into the #History department, who included the #HPQ in their report and judgement of the school.

Just a few more weeks left to apply for the TEL Fellowship which is only offered every other year! Listening to my dear colleague Aija's reflections reminds me of one of the key leadership foundations that ground me as I move in the world from the Center for Courage and Renewal. Holding paradox and tensions in the face of complexity and uncertainty: The daily life of a leader is accelerated, fragmented and filled with unsettling tensions. Leading with integrity requires learning to manage these tensions by working creatively with paradox—the both/and nature of most profound challenges.   #educationalleadership #mindfulleadership #emotionalintelligence

"In partnership with the Carnegie Foundation, we are reimagining the definition of the Carnegie Unit. Moving away from seat time requirements and toward an educational experience that values and empowers real world learning experiences. Much more to come on this initiative as well, but I’m ecstatic that we are on the cusp of eliminating a major barrier for you to be able to lead transformational work in your school communities." https://lnkd.in/gasZRrhX

"As a first-generation student, her parents had little advice to offer, and her university didn’t provide any personalized academic advising." Great story of the Resilience of First-Gen Warriors. It really is a complicated process to navigate on your own as a young adult without any support. It can be so overwhelming, students can get lost and discouraged to finish the process. There is so much an institution can offer these days to help students in the process. Is your institution doing everything it can to help these First-Gen Warriors?
