And if we get that right, we don’t just build teachers.
We build stories.
We build futures that remember our voices long after the paperwork fades.

Not the one in policy or paperwork, but the one built quietly in trust, reflection, and becoming.

I had the absolute pleasure of visiting Teign School today.
I recorded two podcast episodes —
One with HOD (Keira Wylie) & some of Teign’s PE ambassadors, we talked pupil voice.
Second, I was joined by two @marjonuni ECTs - Carrie & Ella. We talk ECT year, mentoring & vision.
