Education Heroes
Spotlighting educators who make a difference to learners every day.
The Education Heroes Podcast shares the stories of heroic educators with a focus on their professional journey. Our guests share insights, ideas, opinions and stories that will resonate with our listeners and hopefully inspire some new ideas or make professional decisions easier. We invite education heroes from around the world and from many different roles including principals, head teachers, leaders, teachers and ed-tech leaders.
Hosted by Paul Sibson, Co-founder and CEO of Hero, a software solution for schools with a mission to foster student agency, communicate learning and encourage best practice pedagogy.

Sean Bailey - New Beginnings
Our guest this week is Sean Bailey. Sean spent 25 years teaching and leading schools in New Zealand.
In 2015, he was appointed Principal of a foundation school in Canterbury specialising in designing and implementing a collaborative learning model in a purpose-built facility.
In 2020, he had a change in career direction and decided to start his own leadership coaching and consulting company to continue living out his ‘why’ or purpose by empowering others.
A trained ICF Executive and Organisational coach Sean shares his story of new beginnings as the leader of a brand new school and then as a business owner after a life-threatening event forced him to start again.
