Intelligence: Understanding Minds, Unlocking Potential

As a school leader, you want teachers who understand how learning works and classrooms where students think deeply, stay curious, and feel capable of progress. Yet many teaching practices still rely on assumptions about intelligence rather than on what research shows about how the brain learns. This two-hour masterclass, Intelligence: Understanding Minds, Unlocking Potential, gives your staff a clear, science-based understanding of intelligence and how it develops. It introduces key ideas from neuroscience, executive functions, cognitive theory, and the growing interaction between human and artificial intelligence. The session helps teachers challenge common misconceptions, adopt a more dynamic view of student potential, and make instructional decisions that genuinely support learning. FOR YOUR SCHOOL, THE BENEFITS ARE IMMEDIATE. 1. Better teaching grounded in real science Staff learn what research says about intelligence, memory, cognitive load, and executive functions, leading to more effective lessons. 2. A more inclusive and growth-minded culture By addressing neuromyths and biases, teachers build higher expectations for all learners and support diverse needs with confidence. 3. Lessons that build thinking and resilience Teachers leave with practical strategies to design learning that engages curiosity, deepens understanding, and avoids cognitive overload. 4. A team ready for the future Participants explore how human and artificial intelligence can complement each other to enhance teaching and learning. 5. A shared language about learning The session strengthens coherence across the school by giving staff common concepts and tools.
