Building a Leadership Curriculum
- - Co-creation with the academic team to ensure integration with learning outcomes, as well as with existing teaching and learning philosophies including High-Performance Learning (HPL) and Positive Education Enhanced Curriculum (PEEC).
- - Must be practical and real to be successful. In addition to daily leadership facilitation, students engage in simulated leadership and entrepreneurial activities throughout the year, providing a safe environment for practical application and learning from mistakes.
- - An Affective Assessment Framework that is not constructed to measure the ability to regurgitate knowledge. Rather the goal is to seek to understand how the application of leadership theory has impacted each student's day-to-day experience as a leader, partner, and follower, alongside the impact they then have had on others.

Session Description
In the 2022/23 academic year, the Misk Schools’ Leadership Curriculum for Grades 7 to 12 was deconstructed and it is now being implemented for the first time. This new curriculum is designed as a spiral model, based on eight pillars of leadership, including effective communication, emotional intelligence, motivation, self-development, values embodiment, decision-making, mental agility, and team leadership. This talk will explore how the Misk Schools team is developing students as leaders, rather than mere students of leadership, starting with self-leadership, advancing to leadership of others, and culminating in leadership at functional and organisational levels.
