Drawing The Line On Educational Disadvantage | Adam Inder | TEDxUWA

To the surprise of many people, socioeconomic disadvantage within Australian schools is still a common issue. By exploring the negative impacts of socioeconomic disadvantage and linking it to issue of social segregation, Adam explores some strategies that can be used to combat educational disadvantage. By using his own school as a case study, he puts forward the idea that sometimes, the simplest solution is often the best. Adam Inder is an alumnus of the Teach For Australia “Leadership Development Program”, which places high-achieving university graduates into socioeconomically disadvantaged schools to gain their teaching qualification through workplace experience and intensive study over two years. Following his two year placement at Balga Senior High School (Perth’s most disadvantaged metropolitan school), he gained a role as Head of Mathematics & Science at Clarkson Community High School, another disadvantaged school in the northwest of Perth. Adam is passionate about using education research to drive systemic improvement in schools, indicated by his publications in national papers: Education Today and Australian Educational Leader. Adam is also a UWA Alumni, graduating in 2013 with a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Science and Chemistry. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
