The Game Changers podcast celebrates those true pioneers in education who are building schools for tomorrow. In this fifth episode of Series Seven of the Game Changers podcast, we talk with Tanya Sheckley, Founder of UP Academy, a progressive elementary lab school in San Mateo, California. UP Academy is reinventing education by customizing learning for each student, integrating project-based learning throughout its curriculum, and supporting students with disabilities to attend school alongside able-bodied students in mixed-age classrooms. In this conversation, she tells her inspiring story while breaking down the need for personalisation in schools.
