Our Vision: Every learner thriving and a system that supports that.
We will achieve this through…
Sustainable Transformation
The focus of the collaboration is on achieving a shared, co-constructed vision of transformation for horizon 3 schools and system.
Movement Making
It’s about creating a movement, not an organisation – an alliance, not a new entity.
An Appreciative Approach
Leveraging innovation and resources already available within the ecosystem.
Learners at the Centre
Learners are central to our vision of transformation, and as such must be considered contributors to and beneficiaries of the changes being made.
Promoting Partnerships
Collaborating nationally and internationally with government, industry and education leaders to create a vision for a transformed future,
Capacity Building
Building capacity in learners, educators and system leaders, recognising that they are the catalysts for this transformational journey.
Desired Outcomes:
Through our programme of transformation we want to achieve the following…

Changing Minds
We need a wider public resolve for an approach to education that sees every learner thriving, and a commitment to designing systems and programmes where the learner is at the centre as both driver and beneficiary.

Changing Practice
We must commit to cross-sector, locally appropriate solutions are in place, within a framework of national priorities and resourcing. Educators should be actively engaged in sharing practice across networks of expertise.

Changing Policy
We require system coherence, uniting agencies and organisations with a common, evidence-based approach to supporting innovative, learner-centred approaches to learning. Educators and learners must be actively involved in shaping policy.
