Full course description
A collaborative learning lab for new ways of thinking and doing in education. (See pricing table below)
LILAed is a community of school Principals and academic researchers, facilitated by Marga Biller from Project Zero at the Harvard Graduate School of Education.
It is open to school Principals from all over Australia who are looking to make significant impact, not only in their own schools, but in the field of education.
As a collaborative learning lab, the program is designed to:
- foster a community in which members learn with and from one another
- connect school Principals with academics who will share their research and insights to generate new ways of thinking and doing in education
- encourage participants to take on experimental initiatives based on the ideas shared by academics.
This program has been significantly supported by the Australian Government, through the Reform Support Fund.

Theme: Change Pressures – Creating Adaptive Capacity in Schools
In 2020/21, LILAed explored the theme of ‘Shaping Learning Ecologies for a Human-AI world’. After decades of innovation, often dramatically re-structuring entire sectors, schools are now confronted with important questions regarding their role in an emerging and complex future.
During 2021 and 2022, LILAed will confront and respond to these changes. We will focus on the role of school leaders in creating adaptive capacity within their own school system and consider how working collaboratively within the educational sector and beyond might create a more robust ecology that serves the needs of students.
We will identify the pressures that are driving the strategic agendas for schools as they adapt to change pressures and focus on how individuals navigate, and leaders improve the adaptive capacity of their school.
