Seven years later, the seven year itch, curiosity and a fairly persistent case of FOMO took me overseas. Since then, I\u2019ve been lucky enough to work in schools across different countries and cultures, picking up new ideas, new perspectives and plenty to think about along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2 wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019m fascinated by so many parts of education: curriculum, pedagogy, leadership and coaching, student wellbeing, and the science of how we learn. I especially love exploring how they all connect, because one thought nearly always seems to lead to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-3 wp-block-paragraph\">I don\u2019t profess to know everything, I\u2019m glad I don\u2019t because it means I get to learn something new every day. I usually have a few thoughts on whatever comes my way, and I enjoy bouncing them around. This is where I write them down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4 wp-block-paragraph\">I love learning, I love thinking and I genuinely love having my thinking challenged. So if something here makes you nod, twitch or want to argue, I\u2019d really like to hear about it. You can find me on LinkedIn or Instagram, or subscribe to my Ramblings and I\u2019ll send new posts straight to your inbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5 wp-block-paragraph\"><em>And just so it\u2019s said, my thoughts are my own. They don\u2019t necessarily reflect those of my employer, but they might. Who knows!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/eduflections.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5234-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-796\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eduflections.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5234-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eduflections.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5234-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/eduflections.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5234-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/eduflections.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5234-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/eduflections.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5234-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:80%\">\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-instagram-gallery wp-block-jetpack-instagram-gallery__grid wp-block-jetpack-instagram-gallery__grid-columns-5 is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-gap: 10px; --latest-instagram-posts-spacing: 10px;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"wp-block-jetpack-instagram-gallery__grid-post\"\n\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Dfgel38k7CW\/\"\n\t\t\t\trel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\n\t\t\t\ttarget=\"_blank\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\talt=\"There&#039;s always a new strategy doing the rounds, and it&#039;s easy to feel a bit behind if you&#039;re not using it.\"\n\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/scontent-lax3-1.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.82787-15\/868134448_18032801489906725_3582624156481727394_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&#038;_nc_cat=104&#038;ccb=7-5&#038;_nc_sid=18de74&#038;efg=eyJlZmdfdGFnIjoiQ0FST1VTRUxfSVRFTS5iZXN0X2ltYWdlX3VybGdlbi5DMyJ9&#038;_nc_ohc=HgbkCnfYmgUQ7kNvwHFoqNw&#038;_nc_oc=AdrmPIvzgEA1AdzG6N1BCb_hFUNdls6qbDJVQ0nGCZ7jqKU4_ebeyM8linYeRrOYqEA&#038;_nc_zt=23&#038;_nc_ht=scontent-lax3-1.cdninstagram.com&#038;edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&#038;_nc_gid=CGeanaV06G5blQnd-YpqVw&#038;_nc_tpa=Q5bMBQKpyZT9gA7RHVkDXyei93PtA1zhPWAKvmX3_QCBHG0z0QUv8mGlDw8uKqIKYMh64vgjycBy_CMatg&#038;oh=00_AQSPhXmyJxLKXctJ8kW7xaBFQXmQ-OPrS_m6IAcTeVnLbw&#038;oe=6AF8FEA7\"\n\t\t\t\t\tloading=\"lazy\"\n\t\t\t\t\/>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"wp-block-jetpack-instagram-gallery__grid-post\"\n\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/Dfbom1Wjrmz\/\"\n\t\t\t\trel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\n\t\t\t\ttarget=\"_blank\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\talt=\"Friday morning, a brew (beans or a bag) and a wheel that picks what we&#039;re putting the world to rights about before the bell goes.
