20 Square school choice with equity Engaging parents and stakeholders Manage/ consolidate school network What can policy do? Formulabased approaches to school financing Financial incentives for schools Foster collaboration /pairing among schools Admission policies, controlled choice Assistance for disadvantaged parents
21 Schools and communities: a virtuous relationship Schools can become partners in serving the needs of local communities, especially in disadvantaged communities Successful schools draw on the resources and support of their communities Schools engage parents and families in learning, and also draw on resources of local enterprises, community organisations, social services, and sports and cultural institutions, such as museums, theatres or libraries Schools Schools at the centre of their communities are often the most successful schools. Communities Extracurricular activities that enrich communities in sports, social care and volunteering Service learning Schools are vital to the social health of their local communities Research projects offer innovative answers to the needs of local enterprises, while enhancing entrepreneurialism among students and providing realworld experiences.

25 Devolved Look-outward
26 Professionalism Public confidence in profession and professionals Professional preparation and learning Collective ownership of professional practice Decisions made in accordance with the body of knowledge o the profession Acceptance of professional responsibility in the name of the profession and accountability towards the profession
27 Policy levers to teacher professionalism Policy levers to teacher professionalism Autonomy: Teachers decisionmaking power over their work (teaching content, course offerings, discipline practices) Peer networks: Opportunities for exchange and support needed to maintain high standards of teaching (participation in induction, mentoring, networks, feedback from direct observations) Teacher professionalism Knowledge base for teaching (initial education and incentives for professional development)
28 Teacher professional collaboration Percentage of lower secondary teachers who report doing the following activities at least once per month Percentage of teachers Exchange and co-ordination United States 10 0 iscuss individual students Share resources Team conferences Collaborate for common standards Team teaching Collaborative PD Joint activities Classroom observations (OECD countries) Professional collaboration
29 Teachers self-efficacy and professional collaboration Teacher self-efficacy (level) Teach jointly as a team in the same class Observe other teachers classes and provide feedback Engage in joint activities across different classes Take part in collaborative professional learning Less frequently Never Once a year or less 2-4 times a year 5-10 times a year 1-3 times a month Once a week or more More frequently

33 Prescription
34 Ownership of professional practice Powerful learning environments are constantly creating synergies and finding new ways to enhance professional, social and cultural capital with others. They do that with families and communities, with higher education, with other schools and learning environments, and with businesses.
35 Some lessons from high performers Rigor, focus and coherence Remain true to the disciplines but aim at interdisciplinary learning and the capacity of students to see problems through multiple lenses Balance knowledge of disciplines and knowledge about disciplines Focus on areas with the highest transfer value Requiring a theory of action for how this transfer value occurs Authenticity Thematic, problem-based, project-based, co-creation in conversation Some things are caught not taught Immersive learning propositions
36 What teachers say and what teachers do
37 95% of teachers: My role as a teacher is to facilitate students own inquiry
38 82%: Students learn best by findings solutions on their own
39 85%: Thinking and reasoning is more important than curriculum content
40 Prevalence of memorisation rehearsal, routine exercises, drill and practice and/or repetition Prevalence of elaboration reasoning, deep learning, intrinsic motivation, critical thinking, creativity, non-routine problems United Kingdom Netherlands Spain Norway United States Singapore Canada Shanghai-China Sweden France Korea Japan Germany Poland Switzerland High Low Low High

46 The past was divided Teachers and content divided by subjects and student destinations Schools designed to keep students inside, and the rest of the world outside
47 The future is integrated Integrated: Emphasising integration of subjects, integration of students and integration of learning contexts Connected: with real-world contexts, and permeable to the rich resources in the community Less subject-based, more project-based
48 Learning a place Schools as technological islands, that is technology was deployed mostly to support existing practices for efficiency gains
49 Learning an activity Technologies liberating learning from past conventions and connect learners in new and powerful ways. The past was interactive, the future is participative
50 Technology can amplify innovative teaching Well beyond textbooks, in multiple formats, with little time and space constraints Expand access to content Support new pedagogie s As tools for inquirybased pedagogies with learners as active participants Collaboratio n for knowledge Feedback Collaborative platforms for teachers to share and enrich teaching materials creation Make it faster and more granular
51 Technology in schools and digital skills still don t square Relationship between students skills in reading and computer use at school (average across OECD countries) Score points Digital reading skills of 15-year-olds No technology use OECD Intensive technology use average Source: Figure 6.5
52 Standardisation and Conformity Standardisation and compliance lead students to be e ducated in batches of age, following the same standar d curriculum, all assessed at the same time.
53 Ingenious Building instruction from student passions and capacities, helping students personalise their learning and assessme nt in ways that foster engagement and talents.
54 Yes No % If I am more innovative in my teaching I will be rewarded (country average)
55 Ideosyncratic policy
56 Alignment of policies
57 Industrial systems System transformations World class systems Student inclusion Some students learn at high levels (sorting) All students need to learn at high levels Routine cognitive skills Standardisation and compliance Curriculum, instruction and assessment Complex ways of thinking, complex ways of doing, collective capacity Teacher quality High-level professional knowledge workers Tayloristic, hierarchical Work organisation Flat, collegial Primarily to authorities Accountability Primarily to peers and stakeholders
58 What is holding change back? You can lose an election but you don t win one over education Complexity and length of reform trajectory that extend electoral cycles A substantial gap between the time when the cost of reform is incurred, and the time when benefits materialise Asymmetry of costs and benefits of educational reform Reform is easy to derail by vocal interest groups Costs are certain, benefits not The frogs rarely clear the swamp The loss of privilege is pervasive simply because of the extent of vested interests in maintaining the status quo.
59 What can policy do? Strive for consensus without compromising drive for improvement Acknowledge divergent interests and provide mechanisms for institutionalized consultation Build effective partnerships Engage teachers not just in implementation of reform but in their design Build incentives that spread and scale good ideas Policy experimentation can help build consensus on implementation and can prove powerful in testing out policy initiatives and by virtue of their temporary nature and limited scope overcoming fears and resistance by specific groups of stakeholders Back reforms with sustainable capacity Time implementation carefully
