Partner for Possibility...

Mobilising citizens and communities to partner with teachers to educate our children.
Partner for Possibility...

The organisers of the Partner for Possibility initiative have received many requests for more information about the School @ the Centre of Community societal change process and specifically the Partner for Possibility leadership development part of the process.

The organisers will be launching various Leadership Circles around the country over the next few weeks. This means that business leaders are committing to work with school principals as part of a co-learning & co-action partnership. The purpose of these partnerships is to mobilise the community around the school to partner with the educators at that particular school (for the benefit of 'our' children). The organisers say that they are already active in 29 schools around the country and dozens of leaders are signing up to partner with principals for this transformational development process.
