Nicky Sloss, AISNSW Education Consultant: Student Wellbeing (Monday) A PDHPE teacher and wellbeing leader for over 20 years, Nicky is the Student Wellbeing Consultant at the Association of Independent Schools in NSW, Australia. In this role Nicky is able to share student wellbeing and pedagogical approaches in member schools across NSW with the aim of assisting educators to provide a safe and supportive school climate for their teachers and students. Nicky’s role includes extensive cross sectoral work and collaboration on a range of projects to support students in all education sectors and particularly to provide a voice for independent schools. Her current role incorporates whole-school wellbeing approaches along with experience in child protection training, curriculum advice and support - working with a range of educators from classroom practitioners to school executives. Tim Olds, Professor of Behavioural Epidemiology, University of South Australia (Tuesday) Tim OLDS is a Professor of Behavioural Epidemiology at the University of South Australia. After completing a PhD in French at the University of Sydney, Tim went on to study exercise science, earning a second PhD in 1997. His research interests have been in mathematical modelling of cycling performance, anthropometry, and more recently historical trends in the sleep, fitness, fatness, physical activity and food intake, and the relationship between health and use of time. Tim has 333 peer-reviewed publications and $28 m in grants and consultancies. Tim’s recent work has been looking at how the mix of activities across the 24-hour day affects health in children and adults. His most recent NHMRC grant, Life On Holidays, was stimulated by a series of studies showing that while children became fatter and less fit across the year, the entire increase in fatness and decrease in fatness occurred during the summer holidays.

He was one of only two recipients of a $1m education grant from the Australian Space Research Program, collaborating with schools to develop ways of using earth observation technologies in students’ SACE Research Projects. His research has included the development of electronic assessment items, the use of machine learning to interrogate large education data sets, and the use of mobile eye-tracking technology to better understand how students allocate their attention. He has worked with UNESCO using evidence to inform strategic planning of education in the Asia-Pacific region and has been a member of the steering group of their research network.
