In the final episode of Season 1, we consider the use of data to enhance both inclusion and admissions, and we explore whether data should preempt or respond to the challenges students face (or both). Finally we focus on how to “Do the Right Thing” with data, keeping the focus firmly on what matters most, student wellbeing.

From The Podcast

Matthew Savage loves data, and believes passionately in the importance of student agency and healthier student wellbeing, especially in a post-COVID world. And he loves helping schools to join these dots - using student-level data to put #wellbeingfirst. In this genuinely global podcast, Matthew will discuss with Heads, Senior Leaders and Data Leads from across some of the very best international schools worldwide how they have optimised the impact of a triangle of data in their own, award-winning schools, from Early Years through Secondary, both before and since the pandemic began. The best schools know that only by harnessing the full power of student-level data can they truly maximise the learning and wellbeing of every single student, and this podcast will offer countless, practical and proven examples of how to do precisely that, whilst digging deeper into data and assessment in schools - what it is and what it isn’t, how it can work well and how it can work badly, and why we need it now more than ever. If you are an international educator in 2021, this is a treasure trove of wisdom, insight and ideas to help you ensure your children thrive, every single day. All interview content is shared with the consent of those interviewed, and with a shared intent to keep #makinglearningbetter and #wellbeingfirst for children and young people across the globe. #weneedtotalkaboutdata Original music by Jon Savage, including quotes from the following sources: Bill Gates (2019).
