Topic E: Â How To Build a Safe, Engaging & Inviting Learning Culture (Online & On-site)
A school has a ‘good culture’ when staff live by a set of shared values and students succeed as a result (Bridwell-Mitchell, 2018). Unfortunately, components of a positive culture often get lost amid tangible outcomes such as higher test scores, excellent attendance, and improved graduation rates. Indeed, some commentators even describe culture as a ‘soft’ target. And yet, the evidence is clear – there is a strong and significant correlation between organisational culture and that organisation’s performance, and that culture can be designed and deliberately embedded.  This webinar will show the best ways to:
1. How a learning culture (online & in-person) is shaped by five interwoven elements, each of which staff have the power to influence
2. A set of values about learning that evidence reviews identify as the most significant for student welfare & growth
3. How mental models drive actions and lead to safe, engaging and inviting cultures of learning
