Ep69: Matt Pitman, Leader, Educator & Author

  • Summary

  • Today my guest is Matt Pitman, a Leader, Educator and Author. In this episode, we find out about Matt’s early career as a teacher, as well as Matt’s post-graduate studies. Over several years Matt was awarded not one, not two, but three Masters-level qualifications in educational leadership, student wellbeing, and evidence-based teaching, with each area linked back to the practicalities within a school. Matt provides insights into his context and motivations and how he decided to combine these big ideas into what eventually resulted in his recently published book: ‘The Connection Curriculum: Igniting Positive Change in Schools Through Sustainable Connection’. We chat about the positive impacts of connection - between schools, teachers, students, parents, and communities – and how the essential role of human connection is often overlooked in the rush for measurement, data-collection and achievement. Matt emphasises whole-school connectedness, the incredible people that work in schools, the value of dialog and the sharing of ideas and thoughts, the value of ‘student voice’, and creating positive change within a school by having an openness of heart.
