Every fortnight, ISV's Innovation & Learning Leaders share their top reads for teachers and educators.

1. Teaching executive functions to all students

Executive functions have nothing to do with character, says Jennifer Gonzalez from Cult of Pedagogy. These skills can be and should be taught to all students – not only to students who demonstrate a need for them, but to all students.

2. NAB Report: How do high school students really feel about their lives?

In this 2024 State of Education series, NAB has reached out to over 400 Australian secondary school students nationwide to gauge how they perceive their lives are tracking. Students contributed across all year levels including those from Independent, Catholic and government schools.

3. Strengthening parent engagement to improve student outcomes

Decades of research has shown that when parents engage in their child’s learning, both at home and at school, student achievement and wellbeing increase. Read Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership’s (AITSL) Spotlight to find out why.
