REGISTRATION:

Nesta Talks to…Sharath Jeevan (eventsforce.net)

 

So do our education and parenting strategies need an overhaul to ensure a fairer start? Are accountability mechanisms destroying teacher’s motivations and contributing to the retention crisis? And what can we do to support more positive, motivational parenting styles?

 

Motivational thinking and the principles of purpose, mastery and autonomy are key to answering these questions, believes Jeevan, as explored in his upcoming book Intrinsic: A manifesto to reignite our inner drive.

 

Come and join Sharath Jeevan, founder of STiR Education and Intrinsic Labs and Nesta's Mission Manager, A Fairer Start, Helen Wales, on 9 September to discuss how we can enable change in the education system and inspire a life-long love of learning.

 

An essential event for stakeholders in the education and childcare space and anyone interested in learning more about providing a fairer start and attaining successful educational outcomes.
