School leadership and management resources

Place-based education focuses on integrating schools and communities. It accesses a community's unique mix of purpose, needs and expertise to equip students with tools and skills they need to solve complex challenges.

​

Place-based education provides authentic learning experiences and boosts a sense of community belonging in students. When combined with inquiry-based learning, and especially project-based learning, it is probably the most authentic education approach of all.
