In this episode, I explore principles that can guide every international school leader. As educators, we are public servants, and it's crucial to reflect on the values that drive our work. Are we truly acting in the best interest of our students?

I break down the Seven Principles of Public Life, also known as the Nolan Principles, and challenge you to consider how they apply within your school setting.
