Jason Pascoe
Jason Pascoe is a leadership consultant, coach, and facilitator specialising in Solution-Building Conversations and Host Leadership.
With over 20 years’ experience across education, health, and leadership development, Jason has worked with more than 50,000 educators and leaders across Australia and internationally. He is the Director of The Enactive Solution and Vice President of the Australasian Solution Focused Association.
Jason’s work is grounded in a simple idea: the quality of our conversations shapes the quality of our classrooms, teams, and outcomes.
In schools, this means helping educators:
- handle challenging behaviour without escalation
- reduce workload pressure by having more effective conversations
- support student wellbeing without taking on more emotional burden
- build stronger, more respectful relationships with students, colleagues, and families
His sessions are known for being highly practical, engaging, and immediately usable. Participants leave with simple tools and language they can apply straight away—in classrooms, staffrooms, and leadership conversations.
Rather than adding “one more thing,” Jason helps educators work smarter within the complexity they’re already navigating.
Drawing on Solution-Focused Practice and Host Leadership, Jason offers a clear, structured approach to:
- leading without burning out
- responding instead of reacting
- creating small shifts that lead to meaningful change
If you’re looking for approaches that are realistic, evidence-informed, and actually work in busy school settings, these sessions are designed for you.

Inspirational Speakers – the knowledge gained will be so beneficial in my classrooms

“It is the first P.L. in a long long time that I haven’t been checking in with my watch.”
Laura Hawxwell – Haileybury College
“Why Is This Young Person So Hard to Teach? Understanding the Diagnoses PDA, IED, ODD, CD and ASPD’ – Aphra Millis”
Aphra was great, so honest, down to earth and personable. I really loved the fact that she could talk to the topic both on a personal and professional level. She certainly raised awareness of a number of conditions and diagnoses that we are starting to see more of. Highly recommend her.

Unleashing Brilliant Brains: Boys, ADHD & the Power of Connection – Tony Vallance
This was fab! As a person with ADHD I have done lots of adhd training and sessions but this was by far the best! really good at re framing and explaining students need.
Rebecca Sim Mt Hira College
“Strategies to Thrive as a Year Level Co-ordinator by Sally Learey”
Sally was insightful and helped me to make clear connections to every day behaviours / emotions that I will need to recognise in my position. It really reiterated why I applied for this position in the first place as I think that often the purpose or the why is forgotten in an attempt to do everything for everyone.
St Anne’s School North Albury
“Build Positive Relationships and a Positive Work Environment Within Your Administration Team/Office by Sally Learey”
This session was one of the most empowering workshops that I have ever done and I leave the session with extremely useful and relevant tools to use going forward. Thanks so much to Sally for leading us in the session so positively.

Classroom Dynamics – the latest strategies and solutions to positive classroom management – Glen Pearsall
Top quality presenter who knows his stuff and delivers it in a way that is easy to understand and to apply. Check in was easy and the Critical Agendas staff were very helpful and professional.
Wendy – Notre Dame College
Unleashing Brilliant Brains: Boys, ADHD & the Power of Connection – Tony Vallance
This has been the best PD I have ever attended. As an ADHD’er myself (undiagnosed), the mother of an ADHD’er 21 yr old with some serious addictions and now teaching for the past few years in the VM space with ADHD students. I have over 25 years of policing and only recently a teacher and feel so privileged that I get to have an impact on these young people. So grateful Tony for the work you do.
