Schools across the country will today try and tackle the backlog of work that built up as a result of the strike action by school secretaries and caretakers that lasted for over a week. The striking workers had been picketing schools, demanding access to public sector pensions and other entitlements. The Minister for Education Helen McEntee welcomed Forsa's agreement to suspend strike action last Friday night, to allow for talks at the Workplace relations commission. The Union representing school secretaries and caretakers says the key element of the agreement is a Government commitment to negotiate comparable pension entitlements for their members. Alan Morrissey was joined by Rena McGrath, Vice-Chair of Fórsa School Secretaries Branch on the Clare/Galway border and Bernie Dillon, who's been Secretary at St Senan's Primary School in Kilrush for over twenty years.

In this episode, we speak to Amanda, who has been a Teacher for 18 years. Amanda is currently a part-time Assistant Head and Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO) at a Primary School in London. Through coaching, she identified a new career she wanted to work towards. As a result, Amanda is now one year in to a three year Acupuncture course, which she is thoroughly enjoying.Amanda discusses how useful it was for her decision making to speak to professionals doing the jobs she was interested in, and how pivotal the support has been from her employer, and friends and family. Whilst changing career can be hard work and relentless (especially when working and raising a young family at the same time), Amanda highlights the benefits of it. She also clarifies the essential shifts in perspective that meant her limiting beliefs and fears didn't hold her back from contemplating a career change. With coaching playing a clear role, we hear what else helped Amanda along the way - the ability to focus on the present being one of the key factors.

One school principal is not phased by mistakes being found in a Ministry maths resource book. 18 errors have been found and fixed - including incorrect sums and a Te Reo Māori typo. Auckland Primary Principals' Association President Lucy Naylor says it's not ideal, but the resources only make up about five percent of what's taught. She points out they didn't cost schools. "Given the maths resources have been given free to schools by the Government, it kind of outweighs the errors." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Anglotopia podcast, host Jonathan Thomas interviews Naomi Kent, a British expat and CEO of the Boardroom Company, about her experiences growing up in British boarding schools. Was it like Hogwarts from Harry Potter? The reality is much more fascinating! Naomi shares her journey from living in various countries to attending a traditional girls' boarding school in England. The conversation explores the daily routines, rules, friendships, and unique experiences that shaped her into a successful businesswoman. Naomi also discusses the misconceptions about boarding schools, the importance of social hierarchies, and the educational benefits of such an environment. The episode concludes with Naomi's transition to life in America and her reflections on her boarding school experience.

Exploring The History of the Great Public Schools of England, Harrow, Eton, Winchester, and More! Do You Know Your GCSE's from your Primary School? An Anglophile's Guide to the British Education System Takeaways Naomi Kent shares her unique journey from boarding school to business. Boarding schools in England have a rich history and tradition. Daily life at boarding school includes strict routines and rules. Friendships formed in boarding school can last a lifetime. The importance of discipline and rules in a boarding school setting. Food at boarding school is often better than stereotypes suggest. Health and sanitation are taken seriously in boarding schools. Social hierarchies exist among students, affecting friendships. Education at boarding schools is rigorous and encourages ambition. Naomi's experiences have shaped her perspective on education and success. Sound Bites "All I remember was saying, oh, that sounds really interesting. That sounds like a great experience. And she was sort of shocked at my response, right? But my thought was, great, no parents around, we can have fun and we can mess around." - Naomi's reaction to being told she was going to boarding school at age 11. "I tried twice to get into that school and failed twice. So we ended up going to different schools, but I basically wasn't smart enough to go to her school." - On not getting into the prestigious Cheltenham Ladies College like her sister. "We would just stick a book in the door so it didn't close... we just walked to the end of the road and hung out in the street. I mean, that's all we did. And then of course, we got caught a couple of days later." - The simple rule-breaking that got her expelled. "There was one time there was a girl and she was just sleeping in her bed and she was one of these deep sleepers, right? So we just sort of dragged her bed out of the bedroom and into the hallway." - A classic boarding school prank from weekend boredom. "I'd say it really hurts when I do this. Don't do that. Oh. So she would talk you out of your sickness, first of all, to try and get rid of you." - About the intimidating school nurse at the "San" (sanitarium). "We would often have like competitions to see who could eat the most number of pieces of toast and who could put the most butter on it and the most Marmite. Again, we're bored, right?" - The simple pleasures and competitions of boarding school life. "When you're at boarding school, you're sort of frustrated, you're a teenager, you're angry, you're being locked up and all of these things. But now I actually went back... and I was just blown away by how beautiful the buildings were." - Her changed perspective returning as an adult. "Everything had my name on it. So we had to sew my name into my socks, my underwear, my tops, my shirts, my everything had my name in it." - The reality of communal living and shared laundry. "Are they emotionally strong? Are they emotionally strong kids? If they are, they're going to really enjoy boarding school and it's actually going to improve their emotional intelligence." - Her advice for parents considering boarding school. "The minute I touched ground in New York, I knew I wanted to be and live in the United States... it was like the reverse. You've gone to the UK and you've fallen in love with the UK. I came to the USA and I fell in love with the USA." - On her unexpected love affair with America after her British upbringing.

Primary and secondary school students are looking at plenty of disruption, with over 2,000 secretaries and caretakers preparing for an indefinite strike once the summer break is over. Fórsa, which represents more than 2,300 school secretaries working in primary and secondary schools, as well as 500 school caretakers, told the Oireachtas Committee on Education and Youth the mandate for indefinite strike action comes after the union's efforts to secure access for school secretaries to the Single Public Service Pension Scheme. Fórsa's Head of Education Andy Pike said school secretaries and caretakers remain excluded from the scheme, despite being on the Department of Education's centralized payroll since 2023. There are concerns that the strike, which is due to get underway on the 28th of August, could affect schools' opening hours. To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Bernie Dillon, Secretary at St Senan's Primary School in Kilrush and Rena McGrath, Vice-chairperson and Treasurer of Fórsa School Secretaries Branch on the Clare/Galway border.

Primary school teachers may have less ground to stand on at the bargaining table. They began negotiations yesterday for the first time since losing their pay equity claim in the May Budget. The Public Service Minister says there is a public mantra that teachers deserve to be paid more. But Judith Collins told Mike Hosking it ignores the facts. She says primary school teachers can earn $115 thousand including allowances, after eight years experience. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textCreating space for authentic communication is Ben Nathan's superpower. From his early days as an Actor to his current role as Founder of Luft Coaching, Ben has dedicated himself to helping others find clarity, confidence, and purpose in how they express themselves.Ben's journey is deeply personal. Growing up as the only Jewish child in his Primary School gave him a unique perspective on identity and belonging – experiencing what it means to feel different in ways others couldn't immediately see. This understanding fuels his approach to diversity and inclusion, bringing genuine empathy to his coaching practice. When he shares the story of his company name – Luft, meaning "space" or "air" in German – we understand it's more than clever branding; it's a reflection of his life philosophy.The conversation takes us through pivotal moments that shaped Ben's worldview, from the profound influence of his Russian-Jewish grandparents to the devastating loss of his brother to suicide. Rather than allowing tragedy to defeat him, Ben discovered that "out of hardship, good things can come" – a perspective that transformed his relationships with his brother's children and informs how he helps clients navigate their own challenges.What sets Ben apart is his commitment to "meeting people where they're at." Whether working with corporate teams or guiding his own children, he begins by accepting people as they are, not where he wishes they would be. This philosophy creates the psychological safety essential for genuine growth. Drawing from his teaching background, Ben ensures everyone feels included by incorporating diverse learning styles into his workshops, making them accessible to visual, auditory, reading/writing, and kinesthetic learners.Ben closes with a powerful metaphor about elephants who remain tethered to small posts because they've been conditioned from infancy to believe they cannot break free. It perfectly encapsulates his mission: helping people recognize and break through self-imposed limitations to discover their true potential.Ready to find your voice and communicate with greater impact?

Record numbers of schools have had to seek emergency financial assistance from the Department of Education this year, as they struggle to meet dramatically increased running costs with inadequate funding.

To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by the Principal of St Connaire's Primary School in Shannon, Peter Walsh and Assistant Principal of CBS Primary School in Ennis,Colm Davoren.

The ballot has been commenced by the Fórsa trade union, the union representing more than 2,300 school secretaries in primary and secondary schools. Acording to Fórsa, the ballot is indicative of the level of frustration with the continued exclusion of school secretaries from the public service pension scheme. To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by vice chair and treasurer of Fórsa School Secretaries Branch on Clare/Galway border, Rena McGrath and Secretary at St Senan's Primary School, Bernie Dillon.

Helen McEntee Minister for Education, announces new measures to tackle absenteeism at schools.

The Oxford School of Thought (OST) is the primary education think tank – the first of its kindin the UK. They regard learning as a continuum, and we recognise the powerful and enduringinfluence of primary education across a lifetime of learning.OST proposes a distinct model of school inspection for primary schools, highlighting theneed for a framework that reflects the unique nature of primary education.The current inspection model, which primarily caters to secondary schools, fails to addressthe developmental and educational needs of primary school children. This has led to a lackof focus on the holistic, child-centered approaches necessary for young learners.The document emphasises that primary education fosters curiosity, relationships, and abroad, engaging curriculum, factors critical to the early stages of lifelong learning.To improve outcomes for students and to support teachers, the proposed inspection modelshould focus on these aspects, providing a more supportive, collaborative, anddevelopmental approach to school evaluation.The paper outlines some key components for a primary-specific inspection framework, suchas the importance of cross-curricular links, teacher-pupil relationships, inclusivity, and theintegration of the school within its community and primary teaching experience forinspectors.By calling for a developmental and collaborative inspection model the paper aims to shiftaway from punitive measures and towards a system that encourages continuousimprovement, addresses the well-being of both students and staff, and contributes to thebroader goal of fostering lifelong learning.This new approach is seen as essential for enhancing the education system, teacherretention, and children's mental health, and is framed as a necessary step in responding torecent government reviews on curriculum, assessment, and inclusion.Full details at https://www.oxfordschoolofthought.org/ost-report-primary-inspectionDiscover more about Education on Fire
