48. Capacity, Confidence, and Curb Cuts | School Holidays Edition

Join us for a special edition of the podcast as we head out on the road for some much needed school holiday adventuring! We'll fill you in on our journey to the Tea Centre as well as debrief about the term that was. In this candid chat, we reflect on our recent "glows and grows," exploring the balance between our professional capacity and the reality of sometimes just being in survival mode. We spend some time discussing how we are aiming to keep refining our sustainable systems for the new term, from digital planning to the professional challenge of developing confidence in a diverse classroom. We also consider the liberating "Curb Cut Effect"—the idea that the scaffolds we put in place for one student often end up supporting a much wider group of students.

Whether you are enjoying your own holiday reset or looking for ways to streamline your classroom management for next term, we'd love you to join in the conversation!
