225: Get the Teaching Job You Want with Tanya Bunting

Tanya Bunting is an early year’s practitioner at heart – a teacher through and through! She first came across NLP in 2014 when she decided to take a career break, after 17 years in school leadership. Tanya's book “Get the Teaching Job You Want" takes you on a special journey where you experience every step of the application and interview process through stories that entertain and teach you what to do, as well as what not to successfully write a winning application and shine as you tread the boards on your interview stage.

Do you feel the education system is sucking the life out of you and the pupils you serve? I think many of us wish we could click our fingers and make it fit for purpose. A place of growth with shared learning that empowers pupils to be their best selves, so they can create a world they want to inhabit now and in the future. While a magic wand or a visionary politician might sound like the answer I believe change is already happening. Educators are changing futures one conversation at a time. New technology and the environments where we learn are beginning to look different both in and out of the classroom. I hope you are seeing this first hand and are excited about what you can share with your pupils. We are having conversations, sharing organisations and communities that are supporting education in a way that you may have not experienced. Educational change will come from us all working in way that supports the best interests of each of our pupils, personalised learning. Governments and policy makers will follow when they see fully how it can be different. So let us teach, coach, mentor and create an environment that fuels every child with feedback, inspiration, resilience and empowerment. The Education on Fire community is shining the torch, so no matter where you are in the world or how you are supporting children this podcast is here for you. ‘Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.’
