25.01.2022 WHAT NEXT! The pressure on teachers is getting worse. The issue of violent students and parents has prompted pleas from some who say more needs to be done to ensure the safety of school staff. Toucan Difference can help. The Educator asked Gabrielle Leigh, president of the Victorian Principals Association (VPA), whether reports of regular violence against school staff were sufficient grounds for principals to follow a recent US push to have school principals wear body cameras...! Last month, the Australian Education Union (AEU) called on the Government to take action to protect teachers and principals from violent students. The idea is to build relationships not polarise groups, Leigh said. Toucan Difference workshops promote teacher efficacy by teaching productive communication techniques that not only support the teacher but have a positive effect on the students, enhancing the well being of both parties.

Taking the top three most popular responses I have created the Toucan Difference 7 Elements of Excellence in Teaching. This can in fact be used and applied to anything we do, personally, collectively or even a subject wise. How could you apply 7 Elements of Excellence in Teaching to your school, your classroom, or your even personal ...life? For a free copy subscribe here. [email protected]
24.01.2022 Toucan Difference has been very quite as the creator has been working hard teaching art and music. Sample of students work and engagement. More happening in the New Year with time for preparation after Term 4 ends.
15.01.2022 I have gone back to teaching in the classroom and loving it. I would have to agree with Kathy Margolis however that children are being pushed too hard and too fast. There is not enough time to engage in what they are enjoying for learning, instead they are pushed on to get through the curriculum. Having been in Intervention for 24 years it breaks my heart to see children express their hopelessness and be defeated at such a young age when too much is expected of them. I wonder when the time will come that the child is expected to read when they are born! Its a bit like putting Easter eggs out for sale one week after Christmas!
09.01.2022 As we consider the behaviour and outcomes with children in school this book is worth checking out. https://www.npr.org//5842/the-key-to-raising-a-happy-child’s
