"Intelligence plus character, that is the goal of true education.” Martin Luther King Jr
Nigel’s big idea is that the philosophy, vision, mission and purpose of a school should be evident in the curricular, extracurricular and pastoral components of a school. A truly holistic education, especially when offered in the context of faith-based schools, should address the needs of the whole child –body, mind and soul. That is, the disparate elements of a worthwhile education should integrate seamlessly into an authentic whole. When this occurs, schools become effective partners with parents in developing virtues and character in the lives of children. Nigel works with school leadership teams to support their endeavours to deliver a truly holistic education. For more information visit www.charactermatters.com.au
