Over the last week I have been writing up my thoughts on Taking risks with Education Leadership, Learning and Teaching. The articles are based around a workshop that I have been doing with the same name for Scottish Local Authorities and the EIS.
This is the summary post to aggregate all of the information together.
The original slides that I used to illustrate the presentation are embed below:
I wrote the presentation up in five parts. To read each piece in more detail click on the link below:
- Introduction
- Part One - Understanding Risk
- Part Two - Doing things differently
- Part Three - Solve problems with empowerment and experiences
- Part Four - “The solution is in the problem”
- Part Five - Further Considerations
- Summary (this post)
As always feedback welcome.




Excellent series of posts. You make a number of points that anyone passionate of the future of education would find it hard to argue with. One of the final things you say about 'flattening education' is crucial. As a DHT who uses twitter and blogs to stimulate my thinking I am very aware of the huge variety of inspiration I get from all levels of the education sector.
I try to share my thoughts on my blogs http://mycpdweek.blogspot.com/ and http://ck-zebraslife.blogspot.com/, but could/would not do so if I had never taken the time and risk of sharing/using tech in the first place.
n.b. your link on the summary post to part 4 goes to part 3.
