In this episode Rob Loe talks with Dr Graeme Cross, Chief Executive Officer of the Swan Christian Education Association based in WA. An academic, practitioner and leader, Graeme has researched and published on the social and civic development of students within Christian schools. This podcast explores the findings of his doctoral studies and unpacks his subsequent research alongside Relational Schools, where he conducted an informal qualitative inquiry into the trends observed in highly connected school communities and cultures.
But this podcast also captures some of the personal story of Graeme Cross, where this work has led him and how it has influenced his leadership of a network of schools across the state. Good relationships have to be modelled from the top down; from our principals’ networks to the classroom environments.
