In conversation with Dr Jim Rogers
Description
In this episode, we were so delighted to be joined by Dr Jim Rogers. Although with his incredibly impressive bank of knowledge and experience we could have been talking about a lot of different topics, this time he was with us to talk about the Danish school trips he organises and Nordic Schools.
We discussed why he started running these trips, what they look like and started to delve into what it is about schools in Denmark that is so different for our schools in the UK. We talked about the importance of collaboration, about not forgetting to celebrate our achievements whilst looking at improvements and a whole host more (including wild swimming!)
We referred to several things in the episode that we promised to put in the show notes so for those of you interested in those links, here they are:
