Wayfinders: It’s not a school - it’s what comes next

Kristy Haworth Season 1 Episode 23

Sara Hocking is back on the podcast to share her bold new vision for education, Wayfinders

It’s not a school - it’s what comes next.

After years of advocating for families through her business See Beyond, Sara is building something radically different. Wayfinders is designed from the ground up to meet the needs of neurodivergent learners and children who simply don’t fit the current school moulds. In this inspiring chat, Sara and Kristy dive into what this new model looks like, who it’s for, and why our traditional education system is no longer working.

In This Episode:

  • What Wayfinders is, and why Sarah refuses to call it a school
  • How Wayfinders will be designed around strengths, not deficits
  • The problem with standardised assessment and what real learning can look like
  • AI, multi-age classrooms, and project-based learning: How innovation is front and centre
  • Creating a nurturing, home-like learning space that truly supports kids
  • How you can help: board roles and community involvement
  • The emotional reason Sara keeps pushing forward, despite the hurdles
