Launch into Teaching is for new and early-career teachers who want to become the next generation of outstanding practitioners. This isn’t a podcast about planning lessons, setting up a classroom or writing school reports. It’s about understanding the bigger picture of how schools work and exploring what makes a great teacher and colleague.
Julia Padgett and Janine have a long history of connection from Julia’s previous leadership role at Braemar College and they have maintained the connection and relationship as Julia moved to Kilvington Grammar.
Julia writes ‘In this episode, Janine and I discuss how to navigate difficult conversations with colleagues and parents. We consider how you might prepare for these. We also chat about leadership and searching out role models and mentors’.
