16 - St Bernard’s P.S. Transformational Change Through Catalyst (Catalyst Part 3)

This is the final instalment of the three-part series that has focused on the Catholic Education Archdiocese of Canberra Goulburn. Across the 3 episodes, I have delved into Catalyst which is the term used that encompasses their approach to teaching and learning across the system.    In the first part (Episode 14), Ross Fox, the Director described how and why Catalyst came about. Then (Episode 15), Education Lead, Patrick Ellis went into detail about the implementation process.   Today, you will hear about how the messages from Catalyst are being translated into the classroom. Throughout the episode, Johanna Wain (Principal), Jennifer Smith (Coordinator) and Rebecca Brady (Teacher( describe St Bernard’s Primary School's transformation, what they have done to support staff in the change journey and how they have benefited from Catalyst.   Resources mentioned: Teach Well EDI Lorraine Hammond Brooke Wardana Let’s Decode Ochre Think Forward Educators RSiS FB group ERRR Podcast Bringing Words to Life - Beck, McKeown and Kucan Dataworks
