Building a Sustainable Data-Informed Culture
with Dr Selena Fisk

The “Building a Sustainable Data-Informed Culture” 1-day workshop will be facilitated by Dr Selena Fisk, a keynote speaker and author who specialises in data storytelling, data strategy and effective data practices.

The workshop will delve into these pertinent key points for schools:

• Leadership first approach: Develop the data literacy, visualisation and storytelling skills of the school’s leadership team – “Do you know how to talk about data and how you want your staff talking about it?”
• Integrated systems and processes - The importance and role of having established data policies, plans and improvement frameworks that enhance existing workflows and school processes.
• Building the data-informed culture - How do we create a culture of evidence-informed practice that permeates the school and exists beyond one or two leaders?
