#77 Knocknaheny School Principal and Teacher

We talk about what is a Deis school, equality in education, the stigma created by the Irish Times School feeder table, the value of further education and training post secondary school, restorative practice in schools and much more.

Thank you for a very uplifting podcast lady's & gents. At first i was Overwhelmed to think that level of emotional understanding and support is now available in school, it brings me great comfort & hope that this is now being practiced from a young age. Far more beneficial than learning your times tables 🙃 #northside

The character of the boy in the homeless shelter described by the principal transcends any outcomes of an objective test. The way you act in the world has more existential meaning symbolically and collectively than any achievement of individual difference. Well done young man

I have been at your school many times giving talks and the kids are great. They helped me fundraising and spreading the word on positive mental health. I saw the goodness in the people living in the North Side and they are the most generous people in every way.

women with a good understanding of real life, the reality of most schools is that a lot of teachers don't understand students, don't try to understand.
