[The LCN strategy] is an innovation in its true sense of the word and off the scale in comparison to what is happening around the world (Valerie Hannon, Director, Innovation Unit, London)

“While we began our work with a focus on student learning outcomes in literacy and numeracy,…it has led to the building of a strong collaborative culture both within and across schools.  Our evaluation has found that a significant group of principals have commented that this is the best professional learning that they have undertaken during their whole career” (Department of Education official, Tasmania).
