SAME STUDENTS.
SAME STAFF.
A BRIGHTER SCHOOL DAY.

The timetable is more than an administrative task. It is one of the most practical tools a school has to create meaningful time for teaching, collaboration and flexible student pathways.

Hear why we’re inviting school leaders to rethink what’s possible.

The bigger purpose

START WITH YOUR SCHOOL’S PRIORITIES. NOT THE SOFTWARE.

This workshop isn’t about replacing your timetabling system or handing decisions over to AI. It is about asking better questions, making trade-offs visible and exploring how AI can help school leaders investigate options responsibly.

01 · ReflectWhere does your current timetable help — and where does it get in the way?
02 · ChallengeWhich constraints are essential, and which are inherited habits?
03 · PrioritiseWhat should the timetable make possible for your school?
04 · ExperimentUse AI-assisted scenarios and check the trade-offs.
05 · ActChoose a realistic pilot and a next step.
The workshop

REAL SCHOOL PROBLEMS.
PRACTICAL EXPLORATION.

Join Nathan Reynolds and Angie Hammond for an interactive session built around the realities of school leadership and timetabling. You’ll see a live demonstration using Banksia College, a fictional school with realistic staff, subject, room and timetable constraints — without exposing real student or staff information.

You’ll work through a guided challenge, compare possible scenarios, and consider what needs checking before any recommendation is used.

Your takeaways

WHAT WILL YOU TAKE BACK TO SCHOOL?

You’ll leave with a way to ask clearer questions about the timetable, practical AI prompts, a constraints-and-trade-offs worksheet and a starting point for a small school-based experiment.

We’ll also discuss the limitations of AI. A generated suggestion is not automatically a feasible or approved timetable; the rules, impacts and outputs still need human validation.

What to bring

A laptop, your existing school timetable as a PDF, and one genuine timetabling challenge you’d like to explore. Please avoid entering identifiable student or staff information into public AI tools.

Transforming Businesses with Industry 4.0 Principles & Frameworks

Area of expertise:  Business Foundations | Transforming Businesses with Industry 4.0 Principles & Frameworks | Building Sustainable Business Models | Interconnectivity & Data Visualisation

There are so many businesses that are hamstrung from growth because they are missing some small fundamentals in their business model to grow. Growing a business is not what I am most interested in, analysing a business and finding opportunities to redesign or strengthen its foundations that enable sustainable growth, allowing culture to build, skills to build, and allowing innovation to drive product or service development and grow customer value is what drives me.

Also, being able to develop sustainable operations that allow more industry collaboration and have a long term strategy to build towards a future where we realise the importance of all these things and not only profits

I bring experience in transforming businesses through a focus on operational efficiency, sustainability, and growth. With a background in Industry 4.0 integration and consulting across various industries; including food, manufacturing, and automotive, I specialise in identifying opportunities for process improvements, cost reduction, and strategic growth.

  • Holistic Business Strategy: Analysing current business models & operations and developing actionable, data-driven strategies for efficiency, profit growth, and streamlined processes.
  • Sustainability and Innovation: analysing and strengthening business models enables businesses for sustainability, I focus on future-proofing operations, incorporating technology, and optimising workflows to reduce costs and increase scalability.
  • Staff Development and Training: I believe that people and culture are a business's most valuable asset. My approach includes identifying gaps in staff & leadership delivery requirements and developing strategies to bridge these gaps. Creating transparent workflows within the organisation that aligns with business goals.
  • Real-World Insights: I bring hands-on experience across various industries, with a focus on practical solutions that deliver measurable results.
