About this listen

 Since the Greenshaw Learning Trust was founded in 2014, we have aspired to learn from the best teachers and leaders in the UK. We know that there is excellence in our sector and we continue to learn from the many pockets of brilliance. There are also lessons that we can learn from elsewhere; other industries, other sectors, other countries, and other ways of thinking. In this podcast, we meet with inspirational and successful individuals to explore the experiences that have shaped their careers and the practices that have made them the leader they are today.The Greenshaw Learning Trust
