@michaelinschool @iborganization I heard the session was fantastic! Sorry I missed it.

Lucy Gowdie @ICS_School challenges us to consider:
1️⃣ how a school can effectively articulate its definition of "belonging" through policy design📜and implementation
2️⃣ what specific actions school leaders can take to create a truly inclusive and diverse environment 🌍 #IBGC2023

[Trevor MacKenzie @trev_mackenzie]

5 seeds to plant on the first day of school:

1. Agency: voice & choice.

2. Curiosity: lessons that spark awe.

3. Equity: all can succeed.

4. Wellness: calm, confident & joyous spaces.

5. Competency development: HOW we learn matters.

Intentional starts create inspiring ends.

Instead of showing me your diversity statement, show me your hiring data, your discrimination claim stats, your salary tables, your retention numbers, your diversity policies, and your leaders’ public actions against racism.

End performative allyship.

Kids need people who love them. Kids need structure and high expectations. Kids need restorative conversations, not suspensions. Kids need more recess. Kids need culturally relevant curriculum. Kids need grace.
