    Independent Schools NSW Research Symposium 2026

    Friday 30 October 2026

    Presenter: Dianne Todaro-Wells  Co-presenter: Professor Kevin Watson, The University of Notre Dame Australia

    Dianne Todaro-Wells presented the findings from the research to the   Independent Schools NSW Education Research and Leadership Symposium, alongside Professor Kevin Watson from the University of Notre Dame Australia.

    The symposium theme, What's Really Going On?, invites educators, researchers and school leaders to examine evidence and reconsider assumptions about what is happening within school communities.

    My presentation explores parents' experiences of collaboration with schools in sexuality education, using the metaphor of a bridge to consider how connections between home and school can become more visible, accessible and reciprocal.

    The presentation invites educators and school leaders to consider an important question: Are the opportunities schools provide for parent engagement being experienced by parents as meaningful opportunities to collaborate?
