导语

创新是引领发展的第一动力，培养创新性人才是我国教育的重要使命。如何培养适应时代发展和变革的创新性人才？是我国当今国际化教育发展中面临的重要挑战。

为进一步了解国际学校人才培养模式，深度挖掘国际学校办学特色，由教育部主管的中国教育国际交流协会中学分会与京领创新人才课题组联合多位哈佛、剑桥、牛津、北大、清华的专家学者共同发起，北京大学教育学院高中教育大数据实验室提供学术支持的“国际学校百校调研”于2020年7月正式启动。

“校长领导力”是此次调研的重点环节，国际学校校长作为掌舵人不仅需要具备一系列超越普通教师能力的素质，还需要具备强有力的领导力、品牌意识、创新意识以及优质教育教学人才的鉴别与吸引能力。“校长领导力”是学校办学成功的关键所在，本次百校调研团队专门对黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长Peter Rogerson先生进行了专访。

嘉宾介绍

Peter Rogerson

黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长

Peter Rogerson校长自1984年起在墨尔本黑利伯瑞学校任教。Peter先生被任命为天津校区外方校长至今，见证了黑利伯瑞在中国的发展与完善。其间Peter Rogerson先生获得过“2019国际教育行业年度贡献人物奖”，“2020年天津市政府海河友谊奖提名奖”，以及“2021年度国际学校领军人物”等众多奖项。

1. 京领：请问学校建校的初衷是什么？请您介绍一下学校的建校历史。

黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长Peter Rogerson：在2002年，黑利伯瑞墨尔本总校首先向中国引入了澳大利亚VCE课程，十年后的2012年，它在中国的合作学校数量增至6所，至今，黑利伯瑞墨尔本总校的合作学校达到了8所，在包括印尼、菲律宾以及越南等多个国家均有合作。在天津这所学校开办之前，黑利伯瑞墨尔本总校都是与已有的学校进行合作，因此当有机会在天津开办一所分校的时候，我们感觉到非常荣幸。

黑利伯瑞天津校区于 2013 年 9 月开学，开校之际，七年级和十年级迎来了第一批学生，在接下来的两年里陆续招满了额外的班级，并于2016 年收获第一批优秀毕业生。天津校区容量约为 1100 名学生，目前我们很快就会达到满员的状态。在过去的四年里，我们每年大约有 100 名左右的毕业生，因此六个毕业班已经有近 500 名优秀毕业生。

黑利伯瑞墨尔本总校作为澳大利亚最古老的学校之一，今年将迎来130周年校庆。总校在墨尔本有 4 个校区，在达尔文有一所新的校区，也被称为澳大利亚最大的学校。黑利伯瑞努力成为“一所伟大的世界学校”，从几十年前就在为将教育推向世界而努力。更为重要的是，澳大利亚的VCE课程获得 VCAA 的政府支持，在世界各地的大学中广受认可，为更多学生提供了通往世界的桥梁。

2. 京领：您能介绍一下学校的核心文化吗？

黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长Peter Rogerson：黑利伯瑞追求学术卓越，但这并不影响我们注重其他品格和能力的培养，例如培养学生卓越、正直、尊重、坚毅、多元的品格，以及塑造批判性思维，锻炼学生的协同合作等能力。

黑利伯瑞选择员工更看重其是否具有关怀的态度，因为在我们看来，杰出的教师总是对教学充满热情，并且他们深知“教学的艺术”。黑利伯瑞坚持践行“每一个孩子的每一天至关重要”这一百年文化育人理念，以确保每个学生在校的每一天都有所收获。

3. 京领：在您看来，学校目前最引以为豪的方面是什么？

黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长Peter Rogerson：如果我只能选择一点，那我要说是我们的毕业生最让我骄傲。虽然我们学校拥有一流的教学设施和教学团队，但最让我感到自豪的还是我们的毕业生，因为他们代表了学校最终的成绩。

黑利伯瑞始终保持每年超过50%的毕业生被世界排名前 100 的大学录取，剩下的40%进入了世界排名前 2-3% 的大学。目前，我们学校的留学目的地已越来越广泛，除了澳洲，我们的毕业生还会去往美国、英国、新加坡、日本、中国香港等国家和地区。同时，在我们学校还可以参加中国高考，目前这部分也已经成熟，并且已有许多优秀的毕业生进入中国的名校，所以我为我们的毕业生感到自豪，相信他们在未来的学习生活中将会有所建树。

4. 京领：与其他学校相比，您认为学校最具竞争力的部分是什么？

黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长Peter Rogerson：我认为我们学校有很多方面比较有竞争力。首先我们有很好的设施和实验室来支持我们的教学，其次我们通过小班教学的模式可以确保每个学生都得到应有的关注。我们的初中阶段是以中文义务课程为主，辅以丰富的英语课程和全面的课外活动项目作为补充。我们的高中班也是小班授课，同时允许我们的高中生使用笔记本电脑，他们每个人都能带着自己的电脑进入学校，学习使用科技工具，为进入大学作准备。

另外，除了以上的硬件设置和授课模式之外，整个学校把学生的身心健康摆在第一位。在我们学校，我们有一套完善的保障学生身心健康的管理框架，例如每个学生有自己的班主任老师，高中学生按照不同的分部进行管理，同时有两名心理老师，在学生需要的时候为他们提供及时、必要的咨询服务。

对于学校的寄宿学生，我们还有生活老师在宿舍照顾他们，看到我们的老师一点点为年龄较小的学生教授生活技能，鼓励他们独立生活，这个成长的过程非常令人欣慰。这些都印证了 “每一个孩子的每一天至关重要”这一核心理念。

5. 您认为学校课程最大的特点是什么？

黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长Peter Rogerson：首先，在国际高中，我们为学生提供澳大利亚VCE课程，让学生专注和探索自己的兴趣和优势：课程以中文、英语和数学为核心，同时为学生们提供了丰富广泛的选修课程内容，帮助学生探索个人兴趣，并为未来学习打下基础。例如对科学感兴趣的学生可以选择物理、化学和数学，对商业研究感兴趣的学生可以选择会计和商业管理，除此之外还有艺术、日语等课程共计大约 60 门课程，给学生们提供了更多的选择。

此外，学生最终的学习成绩是由学校的评估和笔试成绩组成。作为惯例的笔试占总成绩的 50%左右，但笔试并不足以展示学生的全方面能力。因此学校还会通过中英文的演讲、科学类实验、艺术类作品展示、会计领域模拟经营或运用他们的技能调查开放式的数学问题等方式进行考核。

因此，在考试中表现不佳的学生还有很多其他机会来展示和评估自己优势和能力。有毅力和努力态度的学生，在澳大利亚VCE课程中都能取得很好的成绩，我们的国际高中也专注于向大学过渡——通过提倡独立、负责任的学习态度，以及鼓励孩子们正确使用电子设备。在大学——每个人都会有笔记本电脑，学生需要接受适当使用技术、软件、通信程序、教育程序的培训。

澳大利亚 VCE 也是政府支持的课程，在世界范围内得到认可，学生的最终学习成绩为ATAR(澳大利亚高等教育入学排名 ) ，允许学生直接进入澳大利亚大学，值得提的一点是，澳大利亚拥有一些世界上最好的大学 —— 八所世界排名前 100 的大学和大约 40 所大学在所有世界排名大学的占前 3% 的大学。

6. 京领：您认为什么样的人可被称为创新人才？

黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长Peter Rogerson：无论何种领域，创新型人才都需要不断的实践和坚持。无论是学术方面还是音乐或运动方面，没有人在第一次尝试时就能做到完美，但他们在尝试的过程中可能会表现出一些潜力或资质。随着持续的实践和探索，他们的技能将不断提高。他们可能会遇到一些挫折，但凡是优秀的创造者都会跟你说，他们遇到的挫折才真正锻炼了他们的韧性，有了韧性才能坚持不懈地尝试，无畏困难。学校是可以教给学生这些优良品质的，不仅仅在体育场上，或者音乐艺术课中，甚至在学术学业中也能教会学生良好的品格。

7. 京领：您认为学校应该如何培养创新人才？（可以从课程、科研、活动等方面进行解释）

黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长Peter Rogerson：首先，我们在课外活动中发掘学生的潜在能力。每个学生都是不同的，他们具有不同的兴趣，不同的生长背景，和不同的能力。因此，我们让学生接触多种多样的活动和探索不同的体验，让他们可以享受各种各样的机会，从而发展他们的潜在能力。

当然，想要最终成就某个领域的人才还需要他们的坚持和不断努力。这种能力和品格在艺术、体育和学术的教育中都会得到锻炼。

在成为校长之前，我做了 30 年的数学老师。在我的教学日子里，我教给学生解决问题所需的工具和技术，并演示给他们看。但当他们开始练习的时候，我会给他们一些稍微不同的问题，让他们思考和整合他们的知识。这才是他们真正开始学习的时候，或许他们在过程中会犯错误，但没关系，他们可以从错误中吸取教训。

因为解决问题的能力是创新型人才的真正标志。不是靠死记硬背，而是通过对技能的实践和应用来学习，并且把这些技能应用到解决生活中的其他问题，这样培养出来的不仅是创新型人才，而且是一个终身学习者。

8. 京领：您觉得学校最创新的模式是什么？

黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长Peter Rogerson：我们看重培养学生的学术能力并配置了非常全面的课程的同时，学校还开设了广泛的课外活动，包括体育、表演和实践艺术，或是学术类的兴趣活动例如机器人技术和编程等。作为一所寄宿学校，我们有时间在放学后和晚餐前为学生提供这些活动。

在体育方面，我们与NBAPlayzone和尤文图斯足球学院达成合作，为我校学生提供更为专业的训练机会。除了单独的运动项目之外，我们在初中为学生提供了整套的课外项目，名叫“成长与发展计划”，需要学生均衡地完成多项活动。这个项目中，学生必须选择适量的体能运动，他们必须选择一项有团队合作的运动和一项个人发展活动，并且每个学期我们还将为学生提供一个社区活动，通过一系列有规划的活动让学生学到新的技能，从而培养他们的社会责任感。

我们还为学生提供了很多校外发展的机会，低年级的学生每年都会参加校外远足，高年级的学生在远足的时候可以在校外露营过夜。该计划培养了学生多样的能力，也鼓励我们持续培养全面的学生，使得学生不惧新挑战，具有较强的适应能力和韧劲。

9. 京领：在数字化和人工智能飞速发展的今天，对于国际学校来说，如何更好地把握未来的发展方向？

黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长Peter Rogerson：如前所述，在高年级中，我们允许学生使用笔记本电脑，以便在他们进入大学或更广阔的世界之前对他们进行数字技术培训，更好地应对未来。对于我们的低年级学生，我们有许多“便携式笔记本电脑实验室”供教师使用。这些便携式实验室是用来放置笔记本电脑的，学生在使用时取出，放回时进行充电。教师在课堂上使用这些电脑，学生也可以在有需要的情况下自行向老师借用。

我们将 AI 视为未来的增长型产业，因此我们最近开设了专门的 STEM（科学技术工程数学）实验室，并在课程中也增加了 STEM 的教学，但同时，我们也把STEM内容作为我们课外计划的一部分提供给学生，例如提供机器人、编码、3D打印、VR等。

我们学校也非常靠近高村科技创新园（GSTIP），该园区建成后将成为主要的科技中心，并且已经有一些潜在租户正在开发人工智能，因此我们正在寻求与他们建立关系去更好地培养学生的兴趣，努力让我们的学生为未来做好准备！

10. 京领：你觉得未来3-5年什么样的学校能够快速打造品牌，成为名校？

黑利伯瑞国际学校外方校长Peter Rogerson：我希望我们已经在黑利伯瑞天津校区开办的这8年里做到了这一点，但要想做到今天这一步，单靠我们自己的力量是远远不够的——我们很幸运地得到了黑利伯瑞墨尔本总校的支持，这是一所拥有 130 周年历史并且有长达20年与中国的学校合作的老牌学校。因此，在某种程度上，黑利伯瑞墨尔本总校能够将他们多年的经验、资源和学术成果转移到资源丰富的天津校区，这就像妈妈教导孩子一样。我和学校的国际校长 Yanni Galanis 先生都来自墨尔本校区，许多天津教职工都前往我们的澳大利亚“母校”进行过沉浸式培训，每一位资深教师都是墨尔本校区提供的培训项目的成员。所以这个问题的简短回答是，一所学校要想快速打造自己的影响力，便是与已经成熟的知名学校合作！

1. KingLead: What is the original intention of establishing the school? Could you please introduce the history of the school?

Peter Rogerson, Foreign principal of Haileybury Tianjin:In 2002 Haileybury Melbourne first delivered the Australian VCE curriculum to one school in China and by 2012 had expanded delivery to 6 partner schools in China, and in 2022 now eight schools, plus schools in Timor Leste, the Philippines and in Vietnam. All of these programs are with existing schools, so when the opportunity came along here in Tianjin for Haileybury to run their own campus, they keenly accepted it.

The Tinjin Campus school opened in Sept 2013 with a modest number of students in Years 7 & 10, then over the next two years filled in extra classes, with the first graduates in 2016. The capacity is about 1100 students, so we will soon be full, but we have graduated 100 or more graduates for the last 4 years, so already nearly 500 graduates in six graduating classes.

Haileybury Melbourne celebrates its 130th Anniversary this year, so is one of Australia’s oldest schools and with 4 campuses in Melbourne and their newest campus in Darwin, is Australia’s largest school. Haileybury Melbourne wants to be known as a “great world school”, and whilst this is for others to judge, they recognized decades ago that they should take education to the world, and be operating on the world stage. And the Australian VCE is an excellent curriculum to deliver since it is government backed through the VCAA, so well recognized around the world’s universities.

2. KingLead: Could you introduce us about the core culture of your school?

Peter Rogerson, Foreign principal of Haileybury Tianjin:The core culture of the school is academic excellence – but schools can focus on a number of things at the same time, without compromising the quest for academic excellence. So as well as excellence, we build qualities in our students such as integrity, respect, diversity, critical thinking, perseverance and collaboration.

Our staff are also recruited for their caring attitude – the best teachers have the passion for teaching and are skilled in what I call “the art of teaching”. With such professionals, it is how we deliver on our staff motto that “every student matters every day”- highlighting that the best for each student must be the focus each day.

3. KingLead: In your mind, what is the proudest aspect of the school at present?

Peter Rogerson, Foreign principal of Haileybury Tianjin:A hard question, but if I have to pick only one, it would be our graduates. We have wonderful facilities and staff here, but it is our graduates that give me the most pride, since they represent a job well done. Our international graduates consistently have had more than half admitted to universities ranked in the top 100 in the world, and the next 40% are accepted into top 2-3% ranked world universities, and more and more opportunities are opening up for other overseas destinations – USA, UK, Singapore, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan; there are so many options for graduates of Haileybury. Our Gao Kao school has matured too and many excellent graduate pathways into China’s Tier 1, and Tier 2 universities were achieved. So I am MOST proud of our graduates, and I am confident in their character training and academic success once they have left our school。

4. KingLead: What do you think is the most competitive part of your school compared with other schools?

Peter Rogerson, Foreign principal of Haileybury Tianjin:There are many things – we have great facilities and laboratories to support our teaching, and small class sizes to ensure that each student gets the attention they deserve. Our Junior School is compulsory Chinese Curriculum, but has an extensive English curriculum program and comprehensive extra-curriculum and activity program.

Our senior school also features small class sizes, but also is a laptop school, where each student brings their own laptop to learn how to manage this modern tool in an education setting, before they enter university.

But above the physical characteristics, it is caring for the students that make up the school community. At our school we have a very strong welfare structure to care for the students, with their homeroom teachers, Heads of Welfare, House system in senior school, and two school psychologists to counsel groups of students, individual students, and if necessary, their family.

And for those that are boarding students, we also have the Life Teachers caring for them in the boarding house – it is wonderful to see how they work with the youngest students teaching life skills to encourage independence and self reliance. The comprehensive welfare and pastoral program is yet another way that we prove that “every student matters every day”.

5. What do you think is the greatest feature of the school curriculum?

Peter Rogerson, Foreign principal of Haileybury Tianjin:At International Senior School, it is that we offer the Australian VCE Curriculum, which allows students to focus on their interests and strengths:

Based on a core of English and Chinese language, and at least one math, the students can then select from a variety of subjects that interest them and could be the basis of their future university studies. For example Physics, Chemistry and extra Math for the student interested in the sciences, Accounting and Business Management for students interested in Commerce studies; or Studio Art, or Japanese for students with strength in those areas – but they can also mix their choices over faculties and create about 60 unique courses.

Further, the final study score is a mix of school-based assessment and written assessment. The traditional written exams still exist and are responsible for at least 50% of each grade, but written exams can’t always demonstrate the students’ full range of skills. So the school is entrusted to assess features like public speaking in English, Chinese and language; or designing and conducting practical experiments in the sciences, or creating folio work in Studio Arts, or simulating running a small business in Accounting, or applying their skills in investigating open ended questions in Mathematics.

This means students who aren’t so good in the exam setting have many other opportunities for assessment tasks that demonstrate their strengths. Students with persistence and a try-hard attitude, can do very well in the Australian VCE Curriculum. Our international Senior School is also focused on transition to University by promoting an independent, responsible attitude to study, but is also a laptop school. At university, everyone will have laptops, so students need training in appropriate use of technology, software, communication programs, educational programs.

The Australian VCE is also a government-backed curriculum that is recognized around world, and the students’ final study scores generate the Australian GPA called the ATAR which allows students direct entry in Australian Universities. Not forgetting that Australia has some of the best universities in world – EIGHT in top 100 world ranked universities and about 40 universities in the top 3% of all world-ranked universities.

6. KingLead: What do you think a person needs as an innovative talent?

Peter Rogerson, Foreign principal of Haileybury Tianjin:To develop any innovative talent requires application, persistence and resilience. Whether it is academic talent or music or sport, no one is talented at their first attempt, but they may show some potential or aptitude. But with sustained application they will improve their skills and continue to perform. They may have some setbacks – all the best inventors will tell you about setbacks they had as things didn’t work, and this is where resilience is necessary – the quality to keep trying despite obstacles. And these qualities can be taught – not just on sports field, or in music or arts, but even in academic studies.

7. KingLead: How do you think the school should cultivate innovative talents? (it can be explained in terms of curriculum, scientific research, activities, etc.)

Peter Rogerson, Foreign principal of Haileybury Tianjin:In extra curricula activity it is a matter of identifying where real talent lies. All students are different, different interests, different backgrounds, different abilities. So we expose the students to many activities and experiences so they can enjoy a wide variety of opportunities, and perhaps identify some potential or aptitude. Then it is practice and persistence that will develop the talent. And this model works very well on a sports field or in the arts, but can also be applied to academics.

I was a math teacher for 30 years before being promoted to senior leadership. In my teaching days, I taught students tools & techniques they will need to solve the problem, and demonstrated to them. But then as they practice give them slightly different variations of that question to make them think and adapt their knowledge. That’s when real learning begins, maybe they will make mistakes, but that’s okay, they can learn from their mistakes, because we are developing innovative talent, the ability to adapt and solve problems is true mark of a talented person in whatever field they choose.

Rather than memorizing facts, it is the process of applying skills that is real learning, and these skills are transferable to other problems in life, and develop not only innovative talent but also life long learners.

8. KingLead: What do you think is the most innovative pattern in your school?

Peter Rogerson, Foreign principal of Haileybury Tianjin:As well as having a very comprehensive curriculum – and academics are always given highest priority, we also have a wide-ranging extra-curricula program with activities such as sports, performing and practical arts, or academic interests such as robotics and programming – so many things; and as a boarding school we have the time to offer these activities after school, and before dinner time.

Within our sports offering we have formed two partnerships with well known external providers –NBAPlayzone for basketball, and the Juventus Football Academy. These partnerships ensure we are delivering well recognized coaching programs to our students. But beyond one or two sports, we have packaged the entire extra-curriculum program into what we call the “Growth and Development Award” in Junior School that requires students to complete a well-balanced schedule of activities – there must be physical exercise, with at least one team sport, one personal development activity where they are learning a new skill and one semester of a community activity where they are developing a social awareness and responsibility.

Younger students will also take an excursion where they are learning beyond the school gates, and older students an expedition where they will camp out overnight. This program develops students in a range of different areas and supports our desire to encourage a well-rounded student, who is willing to have a go at new challenges, is adaptable and resilient.

9. KingLead: With the rapid development of digital and artificial intelligence today, for international schools, how to better grasp the future development direction?

Peter Rogerson, Foreign principal of Haileybury Tianjin:As mentioned earlier, in the post-compulsory years we have introduced laptops to properly train the students in digital technology before they enter university or the wider world. For our junior students we have a number of “portable laptop laboratories” for teachers to use. These portable laboratories are carts of laptops that are being charged between use and are available for teachers to borrow for their class, and students can use them as required.

We see AI as a growth industry of the future, so we have recently opened a dedicated STEM (Science Technology Engineering Math) laboratory, and have increased the teaching of STEM through our curriculum, but also offer it as part of our after-school extra curricula program – so offer robotics, coding, 3D printing, Virtual Reality, etc.

We are very near the Gaocun Science and Technology Innovation Park (GSTIP) which when completed will be a major hub of science and technology, and already some potential tenants will be developing AI, so we are looking to build relationships with these neighbors as a way to foster students’ interests and trying to prepare our students for a future that is still being written!

10. KingLead: What kind of schools do you think will be able to quickly create a brand and become a famous school in the next 3-5 years?

Peter Rogerson, Foreign principal of Haileybury Tianjin:I hope we have done that in 8 years since Haileybury Tianjin opened in 2013 – but it is not possible to do it alone – we had the backing of Haileybury Melbourne who in 2022 celebrate their 130th year of education, and 20 years working with some great partner schools across China. So to some degree Haileybury Melbourne was able to transfer their years of experience, of resources, of academic excellence, to a well resourced Tianjin Campus; just like a mother teaches the child. Both myself and my International Principal, Mr. Yanni Galanis, are from the Melbourne campus, and many Tianjin staff have traveled to our Australian “mother”school for immersive training, and every senior international school teacher is a sharer in the mentoring relationship that Melbourne provides us in Tianjin. So the short answer to the question is a school can quickly build a famous reputation that is partnered with a school that already has it!
