  • Success is not a set of metrics but is a complex mix of  understanding, best practice and skilful resource management.
  • In changing times practice needs to adapt to excel.
  • Curriculum breadth does not have to be sacrificed to efficiency.
  • Achieving your goals while maintaining choice for learners is possible.
