Trying to lead a school community that ranges in ages from 5-70, with different risk appetites, health concerns, fears, demands, and expectations, while juggling media reports, leaks, & stories that sound like facts, all filtered through political agendas, is a tad complex 🤹‍♀️

It is with heavy hearts that we announce Sir Ken Robinson died peacefully yesterday, 21st August 2020, surrounded by family after a short battle with cancer.

We will be following up with a further update as we begin to follow Sir Ken’s wishes and honour his legacy.

@mscott Hang in there yourself Mark - for such a time ...

[Mark Scott @mscott]

The NESA board meets on Tuesday and this will be the main item on the agenda. Year 12 is already a stressful and demanding year. COVID-19 just adds to that. Hopefully students and teachers will get some clear advice soon.

[Ross Whelan @whelanross]

@mscott Thanks Mark - positive update.

[Ross Whelan @whelanross]

@mscott @NSWEducation Mark - this is terrific and just what a great CEO does. Thanks from all of us who are trying hard out there and everywhere. Go well and get some rest too.
