What does it take to inspire, empower and equip leaders for world where change is the only constant?
This is the question that drives Anne Knock, Director of Development at Sydney Centre for Innovation in Learning (SCIL), research and innovation unit at Northern Beaches Christian School.
She regularly speaks and facilitates groups in the areas of:
People, Place and Pedagogy in the new paradigm
Facilitating change
Challenging current practice
Learning space design
Equipping leaders to navigate change
International education context
Anne is passionate about supporting and facilitating school and learning to inspire and equip young people for an uncertain, yet potentially exciting world.
Together with the team at SCIL, they develop and present professional learning opportunities that immerse educators and leaders into working in new ways:
We can’t effectively change the way teachers teach until we change the way teachers learn.
What else has she done:
- 17 years as a primary school teacher in Sydney, Australia
- Leadership and management roles in the not-for-profit sector, working for community, national and international organisations
- Leadership role in national school system, oversight of state school registration and accreditation

I’m so impressed with your insight. I have recently become frustrated by the number of my colleagues who are not “learners.” Your ideas inspire me!
Hi Cheryl, Thanks for taking the time to write a comment. I am very encouraged. Anne
Thanks Anne for being a carrier of change of educational in Australia. I have been inspired by Ken Robinson, Dylan Williams and Guy Claxton to make a change in our schools but didn’t know where to start, you have given a voice to what many educators, like myself, are passionate about. Can’t wait to read the posts from your trip. All the best,
