Scientific and Industrial Leadership InitiativeExecutive Director
Sep. 1995 - Sep. 1998Western CapeGiven the brief (by the British funder) of increasing the number of previously disadvantaged students matriculating with Maths and Science, I conceptualised the organisation from scratch, employed staff and ran it for its first three years. Together with consultation with leading South African educationalists and teachers and principals from previously disadvantaged schools, we designed a working model for whole-school change and upgrading, which we then helped five diverse schools implement.
