Background & Context

Located in southeast Victoria, Bayside Christian College is a tight-knit community with 600 students and 120 staff. Achilles Gabon transitioned from a high-stress telecommunications career to the school’s ICT management, bringing fresh perspectives and a passion for guiding students through their digital journeys. Despite the stark contrast between managing Australia’s national network and a school’s IT system, Achilles embraces the unique challenges with a heart for guiding students through their digital journeys.

"School Manager has led to a really interesting conversation with those children around what they were doing and why, and do you think that's appropriate. Ironically, there have been no more red flags with those children."
