In the first episode of the new academic year we chat with Simon O'Conner, director at Deira International School in Dubai and chief education officer of Al-Futtaim Education Foundation Chief Education Officer.

He discusses how schools need to start thinking about the arrival of Generation Z teachers into the workplace, what they will expect from the world of work - from technology to how they are managed - and how this can be managed alongside the existing workforce.

He also discusses the power of coaching to help drive career growth for teachers - and how school culture can make or break all this hard work.
