  4. The key is the professional culture..change the culture and it will improve student achievement … to From … Schools cultural shifts Performancelimitations* Examples Stakeholder Examples • I check if students have learned at the end of each lesson; if they didn’t I find a new way to teach it • I do my job and teach students. It’s not my fault if they are not smart enough to learn my lesson Teaching/leading for delivery Teaching/leading for learning Teachers, principals, and school staff • I prioritise spending time with teachers and changing my school’s culture • Administrative work is not the focus Administrative leadership only • I don’t have time to talk to teachers about their lesson plans. I am busy doing paperwork A balanced approach to leadership • I know that all students can learn regardless of their prior performance- I just need to find a way to engage them All • I heard about that boy from last year- he is not smart and it is impossible to get him to behave Doubt whether students can succeed Belief that all students can succeed • I like helping our class achieve the group goals we have agreed • Teachers ask me what things I like and uses these in class Passivity or disruptiveness • I hate coming to school … classes are boring and we don’t learn anything useful • No one listens to us or cares what we think Proactive learning Students and parents • I know how I can give feedback and I know they listened: the teacher told me what changes were made as a result Indifference or entitlement • It doesn’t seem like my children are learning a lot, but they are getting good grades so I shouldn’t complain Partnership * Further work planned to agree required cultural shifts in schools with project and school teams 4
