Acknowledging the gap between beliefs And practice

The promise and potential of our schools can be seen in the answers above. When you ask students, teachers, and parents to articulate their beliefs about learning, they immediately connect with the aspirational parts of learning. Despite this, the work that takes place in our classrooms does not always reflect these beliefs.

Our role as leaders is to help our educators recognize the gap between beliefs and practice. One way to approach this is to work collaboratively to identify the assumptions we make about schools and learning that pull us away from our beliefs about learning. When we highlight the assumptions, we begin to recognize the power we have to change the conditions that limit learning.
