Tim McDonald’s story in the Australian highlights how safe and ordered classroom environments are crucial to student learning. Let's give teachers the tools for a calm, orderly classroom! theaustralian.com.au/commentary/giv…
Australian education standards need to lift and curriculum is key. Knowledge Society CEO Elena Douglas outlines the importance of a strong curriculum in improving student learning. #Curriculumreform #LearningFirst Check out the link below: todayspaper.theaustralian.com.au/infinity/artic…
Getting literacy right...based on science and evidence. It can be done - if we can just support our schools, we can get greater outcomes for Australian kids. This is a powerful show of unity: literacy-open-letter.com.au/home

Yes Leora, that paper heralded a new era in teachers and education leaders facing into how the evidence and science of learning needed to be faced and classroom practice reviewed in its light. It had a global impact. We have a lot of implementation ahead. @LeoraCruddas

@buckingham_j @greg_ashman Even more recently, the Australian government has announced reforms to teacher training that borrow from key elements of our recent teacher development reforms: afr.com/policy/health-…
If you haven't caught on to the fact that 'school is a place for learning' then you need to catch up! All children deserve to be in orderly, calm and safe classrooms. Well done RSC #rscproud @DrTimMcDonald1 @douglas_elena @KnowledgeScty

One of the unexpected pleasures of a decade of successful reforms is other countries learning from what has gone well in this country. A final thread on the pride we should have in our reforms being echoed in Australia - and reflections on how there is much more to be done here.
With universities being required going forward to prepare teachers for evidenced-based reading instruction, now would be a good time for education sectors to re-consider their promotion of @FountasPinnell materials and practices. #SoldAStory abc.net.au/news/2023-07-0…
Excited to observe and learn, with @KnowledgeScty and @ceacg 🙌🏼🇬🇧🇦🇺 #Catalyst
I'm preparing to teach my Semester 2 pre-service units that have focused on the "science of learning and teaching children literacy" since 2002. This is why my @EdithCowanUni grads are so highly sought after. theaustralian.com.au/nation/politic…
Brilliant to see the terrific work of @ceacg profiled by @ABCaustralia. Really proud to be part of the journey. Excited to see how Australia's initial teacher education review can drive equity and excellence in education! Congrats @Rossefox @ellis_patrick @Brad1968 @scott_trazel!

Great thread from Nick Gibb on England’s education reform and Australia learning from England and vice verdant. Gibb saw to it that the teaching of reading in England would be evidence-based and can be proud of the long term impact of this on his county. @NickGibbUK

We draw our Science of Learning UK Trip to close. What an amazing (and full) week. Highlights included meeting @P_A_Kirschner, visiting @Ambition_Inst and Michaela Community School, but everything was really a highlight. I provide some reflections below… I have summed the trip…
Don’t know where to start sharing the clever practice and human wisdom of Ark Soane Academy. What an amazing place. So much for us to learn! lnkd.in/gRueD56x
We learnt a lot from an hour with Hon. Nick Gibb Minister for Stat, Schools. The English reform journey has improved standards through structural change, evidence based practice and knowledge rich curriculum. Better student learning and climbing global rankings the rewards.
Wise principles for Australian educators to consider in improving how we approach education support for children with disabilities. lnkd.in/g8tU3TFz
Knowledge Society is in England with 16 Australian educators. Why have we chosen England for a learning tour? Not only has England England moved to fourth in the world, and even performed ahead of former poster-child Finland in PIRLS reading, but its in t…lnkd.in/grcuveak
