SSP Teacher Roundtable & Pitch Night

Teachers gather to shape the Secondary Schools Program's future and learn a 10-year pitch coaching method you can take back to students.

Teachers get direct access to Young Wisdom's 10-year-developed pitch coaching method, designed around persuasive speaking principles you can immediately adapt for your own students. The evening opens with a structured roundtable where Macquarie University wants your feedback on shaping the Secondary Schools Program going forward, plus they're launching a free fully-funded self-paced course for your classes. If you stay for the optional Student Startup Pitch Night, you'll watch ten teams from the Ideas Challenge program put that coaching methodology into practice, which tends to be energising and useful for thinking through how pitch scaffolding actually works in the classroom. There's catered networking throughout, so it's also a chance to connect with other educators running entrepreneurial programs.
