Guest Speaker, Mark Geraets has a wealth of experience from schools in South Korea, Switzerland, Bangladesh, New Zealand and the Solomon Islands and is now Principal of The Scots School Albury. He discussed the differences between students in Australia and other parts of the world — and the unexpected similarities of students of certain ages the world over. He shared his experiences of the International Baccalaureate program and the NSW Curriculum with an additional reference to a new learning model at Scots called Design for Deep Learning. And finally, he talked briefly about the tradition of NSW’s oldest regional boarding school and what lies ahead for the school in 2021 and beyond.
