Sharp routines, sharper thinking 🧠⚡
This episode breaks down how precise questioning, wait time, and smart student selection drive real engagement—not just compliance. From “name at end” to looping 🔁, it’s all about making every student think&respond 🎯 https://open.substack.com/pub/chalkdustpodcast/p/season-two-episode-4-the-power-of?r=53a911&utm_medium=ios&shareImageVariant=overlay

I’ve had the privilege of featuring the work of Riverwood Public School in both my book and AERO projects—and this is a rare chance to see that work live in action.

On May 5, their team is opening the doors to show how instructional coaching and Steplab are driving real improvement in teaching practice. Expect classroom walkthroughs, a live coaching session, and honest insights into implementation.

If you’re serious about building a high-impact coaching culture, this is worth your time. https://www.tickettailor.com/events/steplab/2082270

The sharing of experience, expertise and wisdom is live both ways across the pond 🏊‍♀️ Looking forward to an insight fueled discussion at our dinner seminar tonight 🍴🧠📚

We're back in Melbourne for our 2026 NZ Leadership Tour.

Yesterday, the thirty-seven New Zealand school leaders were privileged to attend a Leadership Seminar led by Rhys Coulson and Jeanette Breen (Templestowe Heights Primary School), Kate Buck (Brandon Park Primary School), and Steven Capp (Chelsea Heights Primary School).

There is much to reflect on. The NZ leaders were truly wowed by the depth and breadth of knowledge demonstrated by the Australian leaders, along with the deliberate and strategic processes they have undertaken to achieve school-wide change.

Today, we're off to learn more and see this all in action at Steve's school, CHPS.

Very proud to share this great story of how Seabrook Primary School is continuing to lift into game and implement the VTLM 2.0! So fortunate to be working with them closely this year 👏👏👏

Proud of our team’s hard work… and excited to share our story on the Department of Education’s “Evidence to Action” resources.
