Home » Case Study – Design Sprint at a High School

Our high school client came to us with this challenge:

We are a girls school in Australia (Wenona High School) and we would like to nurture our students' creativity, teamwork and problem-solving capabilities. These are key skills in their development as we want them to be compassionate and capable adults in a rapidly changing world. Can you help?

As part of our Pledge 1% partnership we delivered a Design Sprint in a day with the school students and staff.

“We loved working with ADAPTOVATE. The students re engaged and enjoyed the processes and outcome of the "Design Sprint in a Day" experience. It was enough to fill our cups up to get us to the end of the year! Students especially enjoyed working with real-world problems and sharing their ideas for solutions with their peers, teachers and the team from ADAPTOVATE. Including this experience as part of the transition to Senior College was hugely successful."


Santina Restuccia, Head of Senior College at Wenona, Sydney, Australia


Key approaches from ADAPTOVATE helped:

  • Explore an agile mindset and ways of working to tackle complex, big problems in a structured way​
  • Run problem mapping, empathy and value proposition exercises leveraging Human-Centred Design techniques to narrow the problem and target audience​
  • Ideate rapidly using design sprint methods such as Crazy 8s and solution sketching in a time-boxed environment​
  • Assist students (and staff) to reach consensus in an inclusive and effective manner using tools such as post-its and dot voting​
  • Build prototype solutions at speed with the help of cartoonists and then pitch them to a judging panel
