Welcome to my homepage.I’m a speaker, author, adviser, and researcher. I advocate for high quality public education, a strong teaching profession and positive educational change across the world. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, all in-person presentations have been cancelled until April 2021 at the earliest. A range of virtual events are being offered. You can find out more here. I am honoured to Direct the CHENINE Collaboratory on Change, Engagement and innovation at the University of Ottawa (link), to hold a Research Professorship at Boston College, a Distinguished Visiting Professorship at Hong Kong University, a Visiting Professorships at the University of Stavanger, and an Honorary Professorship at Swansea University. My writing and speaking is based on first-hand research and advisory work around the globe.

My memoir, Moving: a memoir of education and social mobility, with a Foreword by Nicola Sturgeon, First Minister of Scotland, is published by Solution Tree. My upcoming book with Dennis Shirley, Student Engagement: beyond relevance, technology and fun, will be published by Solution Tree in early 2021.

On this website, you’ll have chance to learn about and engage with my research and ideas on professional capital, collaborative professionalism, leading from the middle, education and social class, educational change, and uplifting and sustainable leadership – all in support of stronger educational systems that value broadly defined excellence, inclusion, and equity for all students.
