I've been reviewing applications for the @BestSchoolPrize and am so inspired. Most obvious to me is those schools that demonstrate excellence in a particular area, are led well. If we know that #leadership is critical, what can we do to make sure there's more of it?

#GSLessons Data is a powerful 🔧 in the hands of a #schoolleader. Especially one who is determined to disrupt deep-seated cultural barriers and inequities.

[GlobalSchoolLeaders @gschoolleaders]

#GSLessons “Teachers, other staff, anxious parents, and bewildered students.” These are just some of the groups @Alokit_India's Sangita Bhattacharya has served as the school leader during the pandemic. She attributes her ability to juggle them all to one trait: Tenacity. 🧵

School leadership matters. But how are school principals selected? Many are NOT selected via a merit-based process.

4⃣ Targeted instruction in the wrong hands, without a focus on equity, can lead to tracking (lessons from the US from @TNTP https://t.co/gczC3Ivye5)

School leadership is central to supporting the antidote and potential side effects. (4/4)

[Sameer Sampat @sameerksampat]

@maxsilverman Avni Gupta-Kagan & I write about how targeted instruction programs like these https://t.co/2wkMLv9jhF recommended by @FCDOGovUK & @WorldBank are a key antidote to learning loss. But like all prescriptions, “side effects” must be accounted for during delivery (1/4)

[Global Partnership for Education @GPforEducation]

COVID-19 has disrupted student experience in schools for over 1.3 billion children, leading to deep concerns over learning loss & widening skill gaps.

4 cautions to consider when recovering learning via remediation: https://t.co/mQGHz9jkfc @gschoolleaders @UW

[Sameer Sampat @sameerksampat]

3⃣ A diet of targeted instruction must be coupled with systematic work to improve the quality of teaching (outlined by @barbarabruns https://t.co/jIbEkopF2z) (3/4)

[Sameer Sampat @sameerksampat]

In some programs that don't explicitly aim to work with school leaders, a lot still falls on their shoulders (5/5)

[Sameer Sampat @sameerksampat]

Informative interim report on "Learning at Scale" from @RTI_Intl https://t.co/girf3Wc0nK The report is also summarized by @benlpiper @matthewchjukes @jonathanmbstern in this @CGDev talk https://t.co/mrb7uCgeY6 (1/5)

[Sameer Sampat @sameerksampat]

School leader training seems to be key to successful learning at scale in about half of the effective interventions where it was utilized (side note: would love to see more discussion of this in the final report) (4/5)
