Public education must prioritize children.
Every leader in public education must be prepared to pay a personal and professional price for putting children first.
I’m grateful to those who modelled this in Canada.

Thanks all for sharing!! Remember that change NEVER EVER HAPPENS WITHOUT COURAGE!! I paid a personal and professional price for doing what was right for children and teachers.
Thinking a lot about COURAGE today and what it takes to be an ethical courageous leader in public education.
Learned lots about this from @RonCanuel & @Dunlop_Sue early in my leadership career.

ChatGTP’s greatest benefit is indirect, making people reflect and reassess what we are doing with assessment, the need for more formative assessment and to change all-too-common lazy essay as a primary form of assessment
¿Qué mirarías al entrar a un aula? Yo miro emociones, interacciones, escucho pensamientos y prioridades, siento convicciones y motivaciones... un aula dice tanto de un Colegio. Amo observar clases
¿Por qué tengo la constante y preocupante sensación de que la mayoría de alumnos pierde valioso tiempo en las aulas? Mientras el mundo cambia y se transforma, seguimos enseñando cosas viejas, en formas antiguas para propósitos caducos. Al menos hoy usamos tecnología 🙄
Les gens disent que je suis trop critique vis-à-vis de l'éducation. S'il vous plaît, permettez-moi de dire que les gens en éducation sont exceptionnellement dévoués aux enfants. Mais ils travaillent dans un « système profondément stupide et désuet ». C'est la vérité.
People say I am too critical of education. Please allow me to say, people in education are exceptionally devoted to children. But they work in a profoundly “dumb and antiquated system”. That’s the truth. #edchat#cped#edcan#edtech#edtechchat
J'ai récemment lu une citation d'un ingénieur de la NASA qui est la description parfaite du changement en éducation : "Le changement est l'élan incessant du statu quo." Tellement vrai, surtout après la pandémie. #eduqc#recit
I recently read a quote from a NASA engineer that is the perfect description of change in education: “Change is the unrelenting momentum of status quo.” So true, especially post pandemic. #edcan#cassa#cpchat
This 'Leaders' and 'Leadership nonsense has gone too far. Never have we had so much rhetoric around it... and so little of it... trainingzone.co.uk/lead/stra…
I am often asked for advice from leaders in education. My message remains the same: You must take care of yourself FIRST. Remember that your life is not a dress rehearsal!! #edchat#caned#cassa
On me demande souvent des conseils de leaders en éducation. Mon message reste le même : vous devez d'abord prendre soin de vous. Rappelez-vous que votre vie n'est pas une répétition générale!! #eduqc
But there are other benefits to #Awe such as making us feel alive and thankful, elevating our mood, happiness, and wellbeing, inspiring us to want to achieve or be part of something great, putting things in perspective, etc.
When was the last time you stopped, simply to contemplate something, letting yourself be awed?
Awe is a powerful experience, that breeds questions, inquiry, exploration, and creation; #neuroeducation tells us our brain is programmed to look for answers, learning.
A #school is a complex organization. We created the Framework for the #Systemic Improvement of Educational Institutions, w/6 key & intertwined blocks to be considered and aligned in the analysis and strategic plan process to foster #ContinuousImprovement#EducationalInnovation
