Regional schools offer opportunities that many CRTs overlook: stronger relationships, a real sense of belonging, and often greater professional trust and autonomy. In this episode, we speak with the principal of a regional school to unpack what relief teachers will notice that’s different from metro settings – from school culture and community expectations to behaviour, resources, travel, and workload. We walk through the genuine advantages, the challenges you need to be ready for, and the types of teachers who tend to thrive in regional environments. If you’ve ever wondered whether a regional placement could suit your skills, values, or stage of life, this conversation will help you decide with eyes wide open.Professional Development OpportunityProfessional learning may include:•seminars, conferences, workshops and online learning•collegiate meetings and professional conversations focused on improving practice and outcomes for learners•participation in education-related boards, committees or panels.This episode focuses on:Australian Professional Standards for TeachersThis episode focuses on:Australian Professional Standards for Teachers1.1 Physical, social and intellectual development and characteristics of students1.2 Understand how students learn2.1 Content and teaching strategies of the teaching area2.5 Literacy and numeracy strategies2.6 Information and Communication Technology (ICT)3.4 Select and use resources3.5 Use effective classroom communication4.1 Support student participation 4.2 Manage classroom activities4.3 Manage challenging behaviour4.4 Maintain student safety4.5 Use ICT safely, responsibly and ethicallyLooking for work?
