S02E09: Laying the foundations for the development of a national long-term education vision and plan

Season 02, Episode 09

 

In the final episode of #EdInfluence series two, Nick MacKenzie is joined by Carl Ward, founder and Chair of the Foundation for Education Development (FED) to discuss how a long-term education vision and plan can best serve the needs of our country and its people.

 

Through providing a neutral space for experts from across education, business, politics and the community to come together, Carl outlines the thinking behind FED’s ambitious three-year objective to unify our country’s approach to life-long learning focus. Nick and Carl discuss:

• The need for, and process of undertaking research to underpin the robust principles on which a vision and plan can be developed;
• The ideas and voices of our young people; the leaders of the future, and
• The regionalisation of education and how this might impact the development of an education plan.
