    The aspiring Louka Parry

    Thank you for coming back - I appreciate that you are having to wait a little longer for these episodes to arrive and I am very grateful for your patience.

    This episode is with Louka Parry - educator, ex school principal and now CEO of The Learning Future.

    We discuss the way the education is not broken, just outdated.

    We discuss what can be taken up NOW in education that is already available for us to move into the future of learning.

    We discuss the importance of education, innovation and redefining our generalisation around words such as 'results' when it comes to teaching.

    So much in this episode, hope you enjoy it.

    Louka also has his own podcast  so listen here.



    I reference my discussion with George Couros in this chat - if you would like to listen click here.

    Connection and wellbeing in education

    Connection and wellbeing in education

    A very honest conversation with Rachael from Let's Grow - a private practitioner as well as a servicing a wellbeing role at a primary school in Melbourne.

    We discuss Rachael's challenges in the classroom

    Lacking inspiration as students

    How we hope to see wellbeing and self commitment becoming more mainstream

    As well as actionable steps to help take accountability of our own mental health day to day.



    Rachael is no nonsense, yet supportive and compassionate.

    A great conversation to get me back into the season after an unexpected hiatus.
