DAREBIN ARTS CENTRE BETTER TOGETHER

THE POWER OF PARTNERSHIP

A spirit of enquiry and curiosity

AIMS OF TODAY
Ask questions genuine curiosity
Be here engaged and present
Partnership working what drives us?
Education is a life time process provided by entire community

Community has such a large impact on childrens development (We as

teachers are only accounted as 16% of a childs outside influence)

The Golden Circle

Why? Why do we do what we do?
How?
What?

Start with you are rather than the role you play
isolation is the enemy of improvement
connection of moral purpose

WHAT CAN ISOLATE US???

Time

The power of learning

Shallow- when I learn what someone tells me
Deep- when I learn what it is I want and need to know; often through
experience
Profound- when I learn with and on behalf of others

What works for children

1. metacognition
2. feedback
3. peer to peer support and review
