Unless there are parental complaints, if the schoolβs numbers are stable or growing and your data is tracking ok, essentially DET allow you to innovate and do as you please. I have loved this level of professional autonomy and dare I say trust shown by DET in itsβ Principals. Not really the ogre that people sometimes suspect. In fact many senior staff have provided me with encouragement and professional support during the more innovative years at TC.
I have heard Hutton present before. It will be interesting to see where his ‘EdRevolution’ goes and grows.
