Description

This programme is all about career rejuvenation. Why do so many teachers consider throwing in the towel after four or five years? Peter Curran hosts a discussion with Professor Andy Goodwyn from Reading University, the Teacher Support Network's Patrick Nash and Education Careers Coach Susan Moss about how to avoid burnout and keep your energy and enthusiasm for the job. One solution to feeling stale is to up sticks and change country. Teaching is a flexible career with skills well suited to a stint abroad. So, Careerwise takes a trip to Brussels to find out how teaching in a European school has re-ignited one teacher's passion for the job. Finally, Fiona Flynn from the Times Educational Supplement visits a school in Harrow which has made visits to schools around the globe one of the fundamental elements of continuing professional development for its staff.
