Leading a School and Building its Community  

A Conversation with Mr. Anthony Micallef, Headmaster of Brisbane Grammar School

Brisbane Grammar School recently celebrated its 150th anniversary as a school. This is a significant milestone in any school’s history and could not be achieved without a strong community across multiple generations supporting all facets of the school’s operations. This requires a unique brand of leadership from its leaders not only to lead in the present, but also to predict the future and prepare its culture for the challenges ahead. I recently had an open conversation with Headmaster Anthony Micallef about the highs and lows of leadership within the context of future proofing a school. Anthony’s insights and generous sharing of his experiences as a teacher and leader are compelling listening.
