Michelle Carroll has been principal of St Catherine’s School for nine years. Under her inspiring leadership, there has been a transformation in the School’s teaching and learning culture, as well as achievements in co-curricular fields, including sport and performing arts, and the introduction of unique learning initiatives that enhance the agency of students.
Michelle’s ability to skilfully develop and support staff ensures they are empowered to work in the best interests of students, constantly reflecting on their professional practice, leading to innovative curriculum delivery and ultimately, academic excellence. Most notable has been the introduction of independent learning tutorials whereby teachers create online master classes for Years 10 and 11 through a hybrid teaching model of synchronous and asynchronous learning, which enables increased flexibility for students to learn when and where they choose in addition to conventional face-to-face teaching. Michelle has also introduced a Harkness-inspired learning methodology in the Year 9 humanities program as a pilot program in 2022, that will be scaled across other year levels in the coming years. Both curriculum initiatives reflect the contemporary approach to learning at St Catherine’s School.
Michelle’s strategic focus on developing pedagogy is always aligned with current research and a genuine understanding of classroom practice. This is a vital means to ensure an ongoing commitment to achieving improved student outcomes. As a result of the academic initiatives she has implemented at St Catherine’s, students have produced exemplary results in both NAPLAN and Year 12 VCE.
