THROWBACK EPISODE 🎙️
In this throwback episode of The School Podcast, Cameron Parker sits down for a powerful conversation around leadership, school culture, staff wellbeing and the realities of modern education with Mandy Coalter.
This isn’t surface- evel education chat. It’s a real discussion about what happens when schools become “yes cultures”, why psychological safety matters and how leaders can create environments where staff actually feel heard.
The conversation dives into workload, pressure, wellbeing in schools, leadership mistakes, staff surveys, toxic cultures and the difficult balancing act school leaders face every single day.
There are also some brilliant moments around parenting, mindset and the importance of honest conversations in education. Plus a completely unexpected ending involving Nelson Mandela, Michelle Obama and a fictional chemistry teacher from a novel… 😂
If you work in education, leadership or simply care about building healthier cultures around young people and staff, this episode will make you think.
