Welcome to this episode of Half Time Scholars. In this episode, we're joined by Carolyn Wade, an Educational Leader with over twenty years of experience in curriculum design and school-community partnerships. Carolyn began her career in primary education before advancing to senior leadership roles.
Recently, she embarked on a research project during a 12-month sabbatical to explore the impact of parent engagement on school leadership, culminating in her MEPSR study presented at education conferences from the Gold Coast to Toronto. Now pursuing a PhD at Griffith University, Carolyn is focused on enhancing educational practices and the relationship between schools and families.
We'll dive into Carolyn's research, examining how school leaders navigate parent engagement in a culture of increased consumerism. Her work, based on interviews with school leaders, highlights the spectrum of impacts that parent engagement can have, from minimal to significant pressures on school administration. Carolyn will share insights on how these dynamics could inform changes in school leader development and parent engagement strategies.
Expect a discussion that merges academic rigor with practical insights, offering valuable perspectives for educators, parents, and policymakers interested in the future of educational leadership and collaboration.
