Salman Khan“Between the old way of teaching and the new, there’s a crack in the system, and kids around the globe are falling through it every day. The world is changing at an ever faster rate, yet systemic change, when it happens, move glacially and often in the wrong direction; every day – every class period – the gap grows wider between the way kids are being taught and what they actually need to learn.”

Bill Gates“We used to worry about kids dropping out of school and say that we have to do something about it – it’s hurting them!
Now we worry about kids dropping out of school and say that we have to do something about it because it’s hurting us!”

The old scratched record….• Disengagement from / Dropping out of high school• NEETs as a feature of our community• Low achievement for too many students• Failure of students to gain basis skills• Failure rates in postsecondary programmes• Youth unemployment / Youth Employability• Difficult students resisting out best efforts
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
A basic premise:
The essential issues that we face are structural.
Therefore the solutions are structural.
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
Plans Fix a Future
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
What do I mean by “structures?”
1. Curriculum2. Time3. Pastoral care4. Age Related Cohorts5. Sectors (ECE, Middle, Secondary, PSET)6. Programmes7. Delivery
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
What do I mean - the solutions are structural?
• We are working hard to change an old model into something new or to contain new ways of working into a broken frame
• There is no evidence that this will succeed
• All our ideas for progress are trapped by this approach

Time1. Length of courses?2. Time tables?3. The teaching day?4. The availability of assistance?5. Linear progression….
a) Year based cohorts?b) End-on qualification levels?
6. Face-to-face teaching : Self-directed learning7. Seat time as the key requirement?
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
What no classes on Wednesday?
Albany Senior High School Impact Project Approach
•On Wednesday there are no formal classes•Students undertake an impact project•They follow their interests, aptitudes and fascinations
•It’s real learning in a real world.
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
Pastoral Care
21
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
Pastoral careHow well equipped are teachers to deliver pastoral care?Have the requirements of students in this regard increased and/or changed over time?How effective is the class grouping / form teacher approach?What role do school assemblies play?Do modern students really buy-in to all the symbolic stuff of schooling?How effective in this regard is our relationship with the community?
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
Grouping of students
• Age-related cohorts
• Sectors
23
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
Age Related Cohorts
• Years separated by Xmas holidays• Grouping by number of birthdays• Year-end roll over• Equating qual. levels with year levels• school leaving age etc
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
Sectors
25
Finally
• Accidental development of sectors• Based on expansion• Unrelated to development / learning• Destroy seamlessness• Move some too quickly, others too slowly• Is it time to reconsider sectors and have a
planned approach?• Create those difficult transistions

Challenging the structures:
•Dual enrolment•Early access to tertiary programmes•Simultaneous integration of sectors•Working across levels•Multiple qualifications•Teachers from different sectors

An Issue approached as a structure :
Disengagement
35
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
A NEW WAY OF LOOKING AT:Disengagement / Dropping Out• Process not an event• Pastoral care needs to follow students• Home relationships critical• Disengagement is made more likely
by school structures, sector organisation, and a focus on age cohorts.

Disengagement Process
Indentifiers
Stages
Interventions
MANUKAU INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
The key signs of disengagement
• Attendance• Academic (on track)• Literacy / Numeracy• Learning Difficulties• School relationships• Bullying / Harrassment• Interest / Motivation• Family• Social Group / Interaction• Support from Teachers 38

DeliveryBack to Khan…..The world is changing rapidly has changed
rapidly.– Khan Academy– MOOCs– Social Media– Use of timeSchooling was designed in the 19th Century, delivered by those born
in the 20th Century to students who are born in the 21st Century. Whose structures are we reflecting in the way we work?
