Description
This week on Tech Can’t Save Us, hosts Maya Dharampal-Hornby and Savena Surana are joined by Andrew O Neill, Headteacher at All Saints Catholic College and CEO at Lighthouse Data.
All Saints is a school like no other; it has trialled a mobile phone ban, an 11-hour school day, and flexible working for teachers. On the podcast, Andrew discusses his reasons for these innovative approaches to education – including the impact of social media on students' mental health and academic performance, the importance of fostering community connections, and the significance of investing in teachers' well-being – and how he has found the media attention that they have attracted.
He also explains how data-driven insights, offered for free by Lighthouse Data, can transform a school’s performance.
