This could be every school…if we made public education function like a true learning system. When a system is set up for learning, infrastructure and culture work together to harness the power of data, research, innovation, judgment, input, and feedback to continuously adapt to meet every individual’s needs.
A learning system is dynamic, not static. Learning systems approaches foster continuous improvement and growth, support practitioners in making better decisions, explore promising solutions to sticky challenges, and close opportunity gaps and boost outcomes for every student. When our education system functions as a living, continuously improving learning system, it creates the conditions for success that are too often missing when we try to improve educational outcomes.
The Learning Systems Leadership Network is bringing together leaders from across the field who are committed to creating urgency around transforming public education to function as a true learning system. By working both individually and collectively, we are strengthening the culture and infrastructures necessary to support this vital shift, inspiring education leaders and practitioners at every level to be part of creating a brighter future for our students.
