School Transformation with PBL.
Our many years of experience in working with schools to use Project-Based Learning suggests that most schools need more than "just" PBL workshops to experience deep and lasting change in the way students experience learning in school. Schools also need support in undergoing a whole development process which can take a long period of time and can also become a messy process.
​
We are here to help in every step of the way.
