Dr Hugh Chilton: Reinventing Education, building expert teaching and learning communities and the power of encouragement.

 

Today I have another amazing episode from an incredible educator, Dr Hugh Chiltern. He serves as Director of Research and Professional Learning at The Scots College, a leading Presbyterian school for boys in Sydney, Australia.  As a member of the Executive Leadership Team, his role is to advance the College’s Brave Hearts Bold Minds philosophy. 

In this wide-ranging discussion we talked about: 

• How to build expert communities of knowledge and practice 
• How schools can begin to see themselves as independent research communities. 
• Lessons from the pandemic and how we need to respond to these new opportunities. 
• How small acts of encouragement can significantly change the lives of young people. 

It was a huge privilege to speak with Hugh.
