Hope and Fear: leadership during a global pandemic, with Robert Ford
Show Notes

In this epsiode I talk to Robert Ford, Director of Heritage International School in Moldova.  Episode 10 of More Teacher Talk coincided with the beginning of the global pandemic and captured thoughts and responses from him as a school leader and ambassador.  

Now, seven months later, we return to find out how school, and life, has changed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

We discuss Marcus Rashford, Dame Alison Peacock, Geoff Barton, Lyfta Education, the British Council and some of the other voices of hope that have lifted our collective efforts and sense of belonging.

We also share some thoughts on Trump, toilet rolls and the impact of capitalism without morals...
