“This Ripple Tank has been designed with educators leading in PYP schools—those who believe in the transformative power of inquiry, in student agency, and in the profound impact of building a collaborative learning culture.

We understand that leading school is about more than delivering a curriculum. It’s about nurturing a shared mindset—where curiosity is celebrated, reflective practice is encouraged, and learning is seen as a lifelong journey. It’s about creating space for teachers to come together, engage with powerful ideas, and deepen their understanding of what truly excellent inquiry-based education looks like in action.

That’s where the Ripple Tank comes in.

Each week, we send out one simple email that links to five short, thought-provoking episodes. These episodes are research-informed and rooted in best practice. They’re designed to be flexible and practical—perfect for weekly team meetings, daily touchpoints, or moments of self-paced professional reflection.

Some episodes explore the craft of the classroom: questioning strategies, scaffolding thinking, documenting learning, or cultivating international mindedness. Others take a step back to explore the systems and beliefs that underpin strong PYP implementation—how we lead with purpose, build trust, and create the conditions for professional growth.

What makes the Ripple Tank particularly powerful is its “drip-feed” model—offering small, timely bursts of professional learning that align with the natural rhythms of school life. In a PYP environment, where reflection, responsiveness, and iteration are core to the learning process, this just-in-time approach ensures that ideas are not only relevant, but actionable. Rather than overwhelming staff with one-off workshops or abstract theory, the Ripple Tank supports real-time growth—meeting teachers where they are, and providing them with the insights they need, when they need them. It keeps inquiry alive in the hearts and minds of educators throughout the year, allowing best practices to take root and flourish.

Over the course of a year, your team will receive 180 episodes. That’s 180 opportunities to spark dialogue, build common understanding, and reinforce the shared vision that makes your PYP learning community thrive.

At just $365 per year, the Ripple Tank is a low-cost, high-impact way to invest in your team. It helps you embed ongoing professional learning in the rhythm of the week—without overwhelming anyone’s schedule.

Because every day we release is a ripple in a vast educational ecosystem. Some ripples fade. Others grow into waves. But all have the potential to make a difference.

By keeping our content accessible, relevant, and anchored in the heart of the PYP, we’re not just providing a resource. We’re helping PYP schools lead with intention, collaborate with purpose, and grow stronger—one ripple at a time.”
