Leading Learning that Matters

Exploring leadership practices to enhance 21st-century lives.

Leading Learning that Matters (LLtM) is a multi-year collaboration with Independent Schools Victoria (ISV), Australia, to explore and document effective practices for leading learning that matters for our contemporary world. The project began in 2013 with an initial cohort of experienced independent school principals from a variety of cultural, urban, and rural K-12 contexts in the state of Victoria and has continued with additional cohorts. 

 

In its current form, LLtM is a two-year research program designed to engage principals who are looking to shape their institutions and to meet the significant challenge of defining learning more appropriately. It explores two key questions for today’s educational landscape: 

 

  1. How can learning be expanded beyond traditional academic commitments to matter more in learners’ lives?
  2. How can school leaders shape their institution to stay true to its core commitments, thrive as a contemporary center of learning, and contribute to a dynamic and complex global society?
