“When teachers engage in reflective practice, collegiality, and shared leadership, they come to
understand themselves and their work differently.
This new understanding causes a shift in their beliefs and norms.
This shift, in turn, creates new opportunities, new visions of what can be done.
The new professional development is a cultural, not a delivery, concept.”

● An inquiry into the challenges and opportunities related to the programme and known enhancements
● An inquiry into how we respond to change ( as individuals, as leaders and as a community)

A deep understanding of the programme enables us to better support others with implementation.
● An inquiry into the enhancements to the PYP● An inquiry into the revised IB Programme
Standards and Practices● An inquiry into teacher practices framework and
new workshops● An inquiry into possible implications for
programme implementation
CONCEPTUAL UNDERSTANDINGS
By having a collaborative approach towards learning and teaching, agentic learners can
transform schools into dynamic learning communities.

● An inquiry into creating learning networks
● What is your CREATIVE? How does this reflect your Leadership style.
● Who are you? Where do you work? What is your position?
