Robbie Coleman has an unusually clear window into the minds of early career teachers — not by guessing, but by analysing how thousands of them respond to real-world school scenarios. In this month’s show, we dive into what those responses reveal: what schools can do to help early career teachers flourish, and what early career teachers themselves can focus on to grow with confidence. The show is packed with useful insights on managing behaviour, navigating safeguarding, and why obsessing over “open vs closed questions” isn’t the key to improving questioning after all. A thoughtful, practical show packed with takeaways for anyone in or supporting the early years of teaching.
