The Modern Schooling project works with schools to explore effective approaches to technological innovation.  Change management and leadership as well as models of teacher professional development are key, research-informed areas for working to achieve sustainable innovation at scale.

Within these areas, researchers and experts will partner with the school, to focus on topics and approaches highly relevant to the school’s priorities. These may include: online pedagogies, technology innovations, assessment, leadership, professional development and contextually relevant school change. Modern Schooling will also involve project researchers working with school leadership teams to co-design strategically informed pathways for effective innovation in project- and school-relevant areas, such as flexible lesson delivery or exploring appropriate uses of AI (examples). Prior to commencing related research, activities will be fully agreed upon by all stakeholders and appropriate, formal ethical approvals obtained.
