Introducing Scottish Educators Connect #1
Scottish Educators Connect was started in May 2020 and has grown into a connection of education practitioners which was unprecedented. Throughout the connect meetings, the facilitators James & Anita were keen to continue to extend the conversation around the issues raised as well as offer a space where we can talk about what our new learning looks like in practice. We hope this podcast will do that.
This episode introduces to the Scottish Educators Connect movement and what it means to the founders.
