DOBCEL leaders learn from Canadian counterparts
Learning hasn’t stopped for DOBCEL leaders over the school holidays!
A delegation including Tom Sexton (Executive Director), Matthew Byrne (Deputy Director – Catholic Education), Michelle Haeusler (Principal, St Mary MacKillop College, Swan Hill), Terry Harney (DOBCEL Board Chair), Kathleen Donnellon (Board Director) and Dave Runge (Future Schools) is currently in Canada.
The group is meeting with both Catholic and government education leaders in the Toronto, Ontario, Edmonton, and Ottawa regions across an intensive ten-day period.
‘We aim to learn from both the successes and challenges of the Canadian authorities in driving system improvement with a view to establishing partnerships that will deliver ongoing benefits as the new DOBCEL 2035 strategy is activated,’ Executive Director Tom Sexton said.
