In this latest episode I’m joined by my friend and colleague, Matt Knight.

Matt has a super impressive CV, which we dig into by discussing his pathway into teaching, how he ventured into consultancy and everything between.

Matt has much to be proud of, but his number one is bringing about significant, sustained school improvement. Cobram PS, the school he led for several years, is still high performing three years after he ventured into the world of consultancy. Matt puts this down to the excellent culture the staff at the school have continued to work on.

As with previous episodes the conversation bounced around a number of topics. The main talking points were:

· The parallels between leadership in sport, and leadership in schools (including Matt playing representative cricket for Australia in Under 17s)

· The power of targets and high expectations

· An idea on how to fix the staffing shortage across the state

It is likely we will have future episodes together so drop me a line if there is an area of education that you would like us to discuss.

Please enjoy, and thanks for listening.
