What does the future of schooling look like and how are we going to get there? In this tenth special series of Game Changers, Phil Cummins joins in conversation with Lorna Beegan to look at what it means to be future-ready, future-fit on the ground in a school community. Lorna Beegan is an “ideas” woman and a genuine leader who spearheads multiple progressive and innovative educational initiatives and validates and supports initiatives of others, allowing them to shine. Under Beegan’s leadership, the physical headquarters for research and technology, which will house Genazzano’s Institute for Learning and Brain Sciences, will be opened this year. Beegan also recently launched her brainchild, the GEN-i-US Profile, a transformative future-skills program for year-10 students which features an exciting “choose-your-own-adventure” style skills and micro-credentialed portfolio.
