Educators are the lead learners in schools. If they are to enable powerful, authentic, deep learning among their students, they need to live that kind of learning and professional culture themselves. When everyone is part of that experiential through-line, that’s when next generation learning thrives.
Because teachers are the most important school-based factor for student success, hiring matters. Hiring for mindset involves a performance-based experience, where current students and teachers have a strong voice in the selection process, and a candidate’s fit with school culture has at least equal weight with performance and content knowledge.
