When the book begins with an endorsement from John Hattie, and an introduction by Alma Harris, you know this is a book to read and share. Lyn Sharratt brings her practical teaching and leading expertise to  CLARITY: What Matters Most in Learning, Teaching and Leading (Corwin, 2019) by grounding the text in the robust 14 Parameters, drawn initially from Lyn’s work as a system leader in York Region District School Board (YRDSB) in Ontario, Canada (Putting FACES on the Data. (2012). Sharratt, L. & Fullan, M. CA: Corwin Press.  The material explored in CLARITY’s 368 pages, grows from her previous works, spiraling and consolidating lessons learned from her recent work both locally and internationally. Her ongoing work with so many systems in various parts of the world demonstrates the reliability and validity of the 14 Parameters approach to System and School Improvement.

Congratulation Lyn. Such amazing impactful work that has ultimately influenced educators across the world. I can say working with you made a significant difference to the belief and behaviors of teachers, school and system leaders with positive impact on student learning.

Hi Lyn, I took part in your recent Clarity webinar series. I am principal of a terrific, low ICSEA, primary school with a highly diverse student population in the SW of Western Australia. My learning from the series has helped to confirm our current path and inform our school planning processes.

Thanks for a wonderful day. The teachers I am working with are so inspired by your work. It is the driver of all the wonderful growth within the school.  Today the data shows a 30% decrease in the number of students in the lower two bands. They were so proud.

Dear Lyn

I really enjoyed meeting you today and having the privilege of introducing you. I am in awe of your work and passion!

There were so many people who commented to me that for them, your presentation was the highlight of the Conference.

The photos below were taken by the professional conference photographer. I will also send you the ones which I took.

I wish you well for the next two Forums, your stay in Melbourne and a safe flight Home!

Best wishes

Thank you Lyn – you have made an incredible contribution to Victoria’s government school leaders. Your work has been fabulous learning for all of us – and so relevant to the initiatives we are embarking on system wide.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to participate in your work in using the 14 Parameter Research and the Case Management approach (Data Walls and Case Management Meetings). The two days last week in Toowoomba have given us the tools to move forward, and it is now full steam ahead. We have had non-stop meetings this week and are moving mountains very quickly. Some big decisions needed to be made and our work with you has been the catalyst for our leadership team to take action. Positive change is happening already!

Thank you again, and travel safely.

Regards,
