In this raw and unfiltered Q&A episode, Ziggy Moore sits down with Hussain from Cape Mentors to tackle three challenging real-world scenarios that school leaders face daily. From Year 8 students with multiple fixed-term exclusions to Year 10s whose parents resist assessments, and Year 9s caught in cycles of antisocial behaviour—Hussain breaks down what actually works (and what doesn't).
Key Takeaways:• Why "Cape Mentors shouldn't exist" and what that means for school funding• The problem with behaviour labels like "defiant" and "aggressive"• How to take your ego out of behaviour management• Building trust with parents who are skeptical of EHCP assessments• Why school exclusion as punishment is fundamentally broken• The truth about quick fixes and mentorship programs• What schools can (and can't) realistically do about home life instability
Guest: Hussain from Cape Mentors
