Principal Jayne Needham introducing INSIGHTS from NAE

A message from The Principal, Jayne Needham

Introducing you to INSIGHTS from Nord Anglia Education

Dear parents,

I wanted to write to you to draw your attention to a brand-new publication from Nord Anglia Education called INSIGHTS that looks at the subjects that matter most to young people and their parents when it comes to education.

The new magazine was introduced in September at our global Senior Leadership Conference and you will be hugely impressed by the thought-provoking content and opinions offered by the contributors.

The articles cover topics such as: Can children learn how to be happy? And if they can, will it make a difference? Do children need knowledge anymore when everything’s a click or a swipe away with AI? Does learning about ‘making a difference’, make any difference?

I was very much a fan of the ‘In Pursuit of Happiness’ article. At our school, that’s why we have declared this our ‘Year of Belonging’ as part of our post-pandemic plan to draw us all together as a happy and vibrant community once again.

See other articles such as a thought-provoking look at Artificial intelligence in education in ‘The Fourth Education Revolution’ and other insights into our current educational landscape.

In our busy lives, the short time taken in reading these articles will give you space to reflect and think about 21^st century learning in schools. I invite you to read, reflect, and share INSIGHTS by clicking on the link here
