School Leaders Conference 2019

The year was nicely wrapped up with the epoch making conference as 37 School Leaders from Nigeria and Ghana joined us in London. Fun and learning all mingled together as these School Leaders spent a week in London from 14th-20th Oct to Refresh, Refocus and Reinvent themselves.

The Driver’s Seat

When I was growing up I was taught to be submissive. To listen more and speak less. So how do I train a child who is just not like me and doesn’t share my values and ideologies. Just like Rabindranath Tagore says “Don’t limit a child to your own learning for he was born in another time. How can you effectively help this generation truly born in another time”?

Learning Difficulty – ADHD

Teachers will agree that having a student who can’t sit still. Who seems disorganized and doesn’t seem to be paying attention can be their worst nightmare. The answer is to understand the strengths and challenges of this disorder and adapt your teaching and classroom accordingly.

Technology a Blessing or a Curse

Considering the widespread influence of technology, the objective is no longer how to teach children to use technology but how to use technology to best teach students - Dr Tunji Olaopa (2013). How do we effectively support this digital generation? How can practitioners change and re-invent themselves so that they are well positioned to teach this generation of students?
