Are you a school leader looking to move your team meetings beyond just "talking about kids" and toward real instructional action? In this episode of Leading Collaborative Response, Kurtis and Lorna Hewson sit down with Tamra Wilcox and Sandra Patton from Woodlands School in the Calgary Board of Education. They share the journey of the school and how they have refined their Collaborative Response structures to create high-impact, teacher-led environments.
In this conversation, you’ll hear about:
Disrupting Grade Teams: Why traditional structures might be limiting your collaboration.
The Power of the Key Issue: How to move away from complaints and toward Tier 1 and 2 solutions.
The Continuum Curator: Ensuring your supports are organized and accessible.
Teacher Ownership: Strategies to ensure actions from meetings actually happen in the classroom.
Pre-Meeting Organizers: Using data to stay focused and efficient.
This episode is a must-listen for principals, system leaders, and instructional coaches who want to deepen their Collaborative Team Meetings (CTM) and ensure every learner is supported.
