⚡ ️Imagine 4-day school weeks, outdoor learning as standard, limited access to devices - and children who want to be at school. This is the dream of Liberty Woodland founder Leanna Barret.
💡 Many people are questioning whether the traditional school system is really setting their kids up for success - whether sending them away 5 days a week is truly best for them. And while homeschooling rates are increasing, many parents want something that meets somewhere in the middle.
💬 That’s why we’ve invited Leanna Barret onto the show - she’s the founder and headteacher at Liberty Woodland School, an independent school in South London. After struggling to find the right school for her kids, she decided to set up her own. It has gained a lot of media attention thanks to its unique approach to learning and 4-day week schedule.
🎧 Learn how children are benefitting from this radical new take on education - but also the challenges that come with stepping outside the norm.
