  • #4 Mitch Jones
    This week I was lucky enough to have a head to head with Mitch Jones from ANZUK Education who match exceptional teachers with fantastic schools in Australia, New Zealand and the UK. We really got into it with reasons for the global teacher shortage and what could be done about supporting teacher welfare in newly qualified or early careers teachers. Mitch also takes me through why doing a placement at a regional or rural school is great for the teacher resume and how to stand out to a potential new employer!Learn more about ANZUK Education here: https://anzuk.education/au/home Come and follow the pod over on Instagram @Cold_Coffee_No_Gluesticks_Pod!
