One of Queensland’s most influential educators will bring his expertise and passion to Cooktown students as part of the Endeavour Christian College (ECC) senior leadership team.
Dr David Chinofunga has been announced as the new Head of Teaching and Learning at ECC, where he will oversee the strategic development and implementation of curriculum, pedagogy and assessment across the school.
Dr Chinofunga has been recognised by Educational Studies in Mathematics, a premier internationally ranked academic journal, as a leading expert in high school mathematics.
As a prolific researcher, he has authored more than 10 peer-reviewed papers in premier journals, and has been widely cited in academic publications across the world.
“We are incredibly fortunate to welcome an educator of David’s calibre and vision to Endeavour,” ECC principal Jenny Nelson said.
“His unique blend of deep classroom experience, academic rigour, and data-informed leadership will be invaluable as we continue to elevate our teaching and learning culture for the benefit of every student.”
Dr Chinofunga holds a PhD in Mathematics Education from James Cook University, where he actively bridges the gap between research and the classroom as a sessional lecturer.
He is also a lead assessor for the Queensland Curriculum and Assessment Authority, has peer-reviewed several leading international journals, and most recently, served as the Director of Performance, Research, and Data Analytics at Blackheath and Thornburg College in Charters Towers.
“I am thrilled to join the Endeavour Christian College community,” said Dr Chinofunga.
“This role presents a wonderful opportunity to collaborate with a dedicated staff to foster a dynamic, evidence-based learning environment where every student can thrive and achieve their God-given potential.”
