The DCU Changemaker Schools Network is a collaborative professional learning network of schools chosen for their pioneering work in the development of empathy, creativity, leadership, and teamwork. Adopted by Dublin City University (DCU) in September 2020, the current network of 18 primary schools has moved into Phase 2 of its development, with two full-time academics, an ambitious research plan, and many ideas on the further development of students, and indeed school communities, as changemakers. The DCU Changemaker Schools Network develops the capacity of primary school teachers, principals, and students to lead programs of change in their respective schools and wider communities to progress the education of their students and also address such societal challenges as inequality, climate change, and mental health. A changemaker is someone with the skills and confidence to lead change in their home, school, and community. In driving this goal, the DCU Changemaker Schools Network works to support students in their acquisition of critical thinking skills and the confidence to become active participants in their home, school, and community to boost sustainable and positive change.
