When creativity is the goal, schools must have their own platforms to network and innovate.

In Finland, within very broad government guidelines, teachers create their own curricula together across schools in every community and district. They don't confine collaboration to their own individual schools and to just implementing other people's ideas.

In collaborative cultures, failure and uncertainty are not protected but shared and discussed to gain support.

There is no morality without temptation; otherwise it is just lack of opportunity.

The quality & morale of teachers is absolutely central to the well being of students and their learning.

On government & unions: the only thing worse than blind trust is blind mistrust.

High performance leaders create an inspiring future by connecting with a classic and honorable past.
