@sophiehiggo had the honour of participating in a principal panel discussion for New Zealand’s Minister of Education, Hon Erica Stanford, Deputy Secretary Pauline Cleaver, 15 New Zealand principals & other senior ministerial advisers. #lovewhereyouwork
@MarsdenRoad@EricaStanfordMP What an honour to welcome a delegation of New Zealand principals, led by the NZ Minister of Education, to MRPS who visited to observe our learning culture. Conversations like these remind us that great education is a global conversation.
Another reminder from the brilliant @HollyLanePhD 👇
Not all “evidence” is created equal.
If an intervention can’t point to randomized control trials, systematic reviews, or meta-analyses…it’s not strong evidence.
Parents & educators:
➡️ Demand quality
➡️ Ask for the research
➡️ Watch for snake oil

Participated in a panel session on ‘Leading System Change’ yesterday at the Science of Learning Alliance maths conference in Sydney, Australia, with Dr Reid Smith co-CEO of Ochre Education (@Smithre5), Kelly Norris of @CISOZ & chaired by Matt Carter of SoLA.
It was such an honour to meet @NickGibbUK today at the #SoLA conference today. As the Minister for Education, he did outstanding work shifting England to the explicit teaching of phonics, maths and knowledge rich curriculum. He now works to improve education around the world.
It was such an honour for the staff at Riverwood Public School to meet Doctor @brian_poncy at the SoLA explicit maths. A fantastic couple of days for us to be inspired supercharge maths outcomes for all our students. @RockingDanTM@sophiehiggo@EmmaMeddows
