It was very clear at the 2018 IB Global Conference and IB World Heads Conference that there are a number of educators out there who are pushing the boundaries, shaking up the system and challenging the status quo. All in pursuit of respecting and supporting agency and a better, more humane approach to education.
Agency for students.
Agency for teachers.
Agency for schools.
We’re from all over the world – Australia, Vietnam, Ethiopia, Germany, China, Bahamas, India, Switzerland, Qatar, Mozambique, Hong Kong, America, Malaysia, Poland, Korea, Italy, Thailand, UAE, Laos, Canada, Singapore, Japan, Kenya, UK, Portugal, Angola, The Netherlands, Estonia, Pakistan, Brazil, Lithuania, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Turkey, Uzbekistan, Spain, Indonesia, Cambodia, Panama, Madagascar
We have different roles – teachers, leaders, coordinators, librarians, counsellors, administrators, heads of school, IBO staff members.
We’re at different stages of our journey – first steps away from being a robot all the way to being full fledged rebel-leaders.
But we ALL share in a dream of a better approach to education and are willing to fail, be a little a different… and even get in trouble if we have to đŸ˜‰
And we’ve joined together, through this blog, to share our risks… our failures… our successes… our ideas… our challenges… our frustrations… our pilots…. our prototypes… our initiatives… our innovations…
Our stories.Â
So we invite you to follow our blog, read our posts, leave us comments and join the conversation.
Excited that within 7 days of the conclusion of the conference the rebel alliance has just taken wings! Looking forward to learning from and sharing with fellow rebels!
