Establishing a School-Wide Data and Evidence Plan
Planning for the effective use of data with our teachers is hard…but it doesn’t have to be!  When schools have a targeted plan for the collection and utilization of data, conversations become more focused and staff can see the impact their collective practices are having for students.  👉  bit.ly/dataevidenceplan

5 Mistakes Leaders Make When Organizing Data for Teams
Access a FREE webinar to learn about 5 mistakes leaders make when organizing data for teams…and how to correct those mistakes. 👉  bit.ly/5mistakesdata

In this episode of Leading Collaborative Response, Lorna and Kurtis are joined by Nancy MacLellan, a retired teacher and current educational consultant who has formed her company - Nancy Mac Consulting.  We dive into the importance of responsive literacy interventions and share a number of tips and reminders when establishing school-wide literacy supports in a school. 

If you've enjoyed this episode, we'd love to have you as a subscriber! You'll get more conversations about literacy, as well as deeper focus on what is means to be providing a Collaborative Response in your organization.

Celebrate a major milestone with us! In our 100th episode of Leading Collaborative Response, Kurtis and Lorna Hewson sit down with a true legend in the field of education, Dr. Jim Parsons.


As a Professor Emeritus with 41 years at the University of Alberta and a co-author of the first-ever book on Collaborative Response, Jim brings a unique blend of academic rigor and heartfelt wisdom. We dive into the history of the movement, the power of Action Research, and how his 'failed retirement' led him to become a top NHL commentator.


Whether you are a long-time listener or new to the Collaborative Response framework, this episode is a masterclass in staying curious and committed to the teaching profession.

The Emotional Truth of School Leadership: Why 'Caring' is Not Enough

To every principal, teacher, and district leader who has ever felt overwhelmed: This video is for you.

We take you inside two very different schools: Castaway Elementary, where dedicated teacher Mrs. Hart is battling student struggle alone, and Robinson Elementary, where Mrs. Gonzales and her team are thriving thanks to a powerful system of supports.

The difference isn't the effort—it's the structure. In Castaway, teachers are lone sailors battling the storm. In Robinson, they are a fleet, navigating the waters together.

If your staff meetings feel like "extensive storytelling" and your dedicated teachers are running faster and faster but going nowhere, this video is an essential reset for your professional development day.

In this talk, Kurtis Hewson uses this powerful comparison to reveal the high cost of individual islands and the life-changing impact of intentional, collaborative systems on student achievement and staff well-being.

Watch, reflect, and share this video with your staff. It’s time to turn your Castaway into a Robinson.

How can system leaders use Collaborative Response to better support schools, staff, and students?

In this episode of Leading Collaborative Response, Kurtis and Lorna Hewson are joined by Kari Huk and Corey Kropp, Assistant Directors of Supports for Students with Elk Island Public Schools. Together, they explore how Collaborative Response structures and processes have been used at the system level to redesign service delivery, respond to school feedback, and strengthen supports for students across the division.

Kari and Corey share practical insights into how their team:

  • Shifted service delivery models based on school feedback
  • Used Collaborative Response to organize and model system-level collaboration
  • Leveraged early dismissal “Collaborative Wednesdays” to align supports
  • Strengthened multidisciplinary team meetings for system program classrooms
  • Ensured every student is “on the radar” through team-based, responsive practices

This conversation is especially valuable for district leaders, principals, inclusive education leaders, and system teams looking to build alignment, collective efficacy, and meaningful collaboration between central office and schools.

Of particular note is the idea of shifting the mindset away from the fear of losing Collaborative Response to the opportunity that presents itself when new eyes can be shown the value of collaboration and be invited to contribute.
