Had the opportunity to talk to 40+ principals at the Sutherland PPC Conference about all things to do with the science of learning & explicit instruction. Here's a network heading in the right direction 👏 @NSWEducation @dizdarm @wanita_bowles @Mat_Egan @lizrudder01

Great to hear from our Department of Student Voices in Education and Schools (DOVES) at our Education Minister’s Meeting - they initiated a National Student Voice Council - It’s important to receive feedback directly from the students we serve so schooling is more purposeful.
