NLN 2024 Programme dates and venue

Our work together in Term Two will build on your focus from Term One. We will concentrate on ways to work systemically to increase traction, progress, and sustainability of your improvement efforts. Throughout all three sessions you will have the opportunity to focus on what this means for the ‘systems’ you work within and for your ‘self’.

The focus of this session will be what it means to work systemically and why it matters.

You will identify what the different systems are that you are working within and across in your school improvement initiatives.

System-wide improvement demands we focus on the specifics of our daily work while also keeping the big picture in clear focus. In this session the focus will be on how to engage across the systems and people you identified in Session One. What do you need to pay attention to make traction in your improvement initiative/s? How can we do this in a way that reduces overload? You will work within your school groups as some of these issues will be specific to each school.

In this final session together for Term Two the focus will be on identifying what has worked well while also keeping in mind the key challenges in working systemically. Each school will have the opportunity to discuss a key intentional action they have undertaken to work systemically by sharing ‘what has worked well’ and ‘what challenges we faced’.
