Episode 5 - Students At The Centre; First, Foremost and Always
In this episode of The Flourish Movement Podcast, we’re joined by Deanne, an innovative school leader who shares the journey of establishing the first deafblind class within a mainstream school setting.
But this conversation goes far beyond the achievement itself. We explore the leadership, relationships, and small intentional shifts that made this kind of innovation possible in a complex school environment, always keeping students at the centre of every decision.
Deanne reflects on the importance of vulnerability, trust, and collaboration, not just within her own team, but also in working closely with peers and system leaders to bring a shared vision to life.
This episode is a powerful reminder that meaningful change often starts with small tweaks, strong relationships, and leaders willing to work together for better outcomes for students.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank the NSW Primary Principals’ Association, our learning partner in this podcast.
