This is our first Education Leaders Live recording, where I sat down with Chris Scorer to reflect on October's episodes. We talked about the difference between administration and leadership, why corridor conversations are actually the big wins, and how brilliant teachers often become exhausted leaders because they're cognitively fried by the basics. Chris shared some honest reflections about his own leadership journey and the things he wishes he'd done differently, particularly around prioritising relationships over processes.
We covered solution-focused leadership, the trap of being needed everywhere, getting formative assessment into real classroom action, and the ten leadership levers that can help you reclaim your thinking time. This isn't your typical podcast episode - it's unpolished, conversational, and recorded live with our community. Join us next month, last Thursday at 6pm Shanghai time / 10am London time at educationleaders.live.
