When speaking with educators about why they came into our profession, they don’t tend to talk about the joy of admin, red-tape and endless tick box exercises. They tend to share that they came into the profession because:
They care about young people and feel honoured to be a positive role model and guide in young people’s lives
They value happiness, fulfilment and individual talents; They aim to be a key adult who helps people unearth those talents and joys
They believe in Nelson Mandela’s famous quote: “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” By shaping and nurturing young minds, they are enabling a better world to take root.
Staying true to these values; remaining conscious and ever-open to new ideas, staying focused on our “whys” and committed to fine-tuning our practice and leadership can be challenging, especially with demands outside of our control and a never-ended to do list.
Fresh, inspiring and relevant.
To the young people in our care.
