Magdalena Landziak is back on the podcast this week to help us explore the importance of relationships with our SNAs in school.

How can teachers set up their classroom to empower SNAs to reach their full potential? What do teachers need to understand about the role of the SNA in classrooms and schools? As always, communication is at the core of everything - we are all working together and we all have the same goal; how can we maximise our care for our students?

Emergency episode! With the proposed industrial action only a week away, we are joined by INTO Assistant General Secretary Máirín Ní Chéileachair to break down exactly what this means for teachers, parents, schools and other education professionals.

Máirín Ní Chéileachair is the Director of Education, Equality, Research and Learning at the INTO. She explains the reasons behind the industrial action and exactly how we got to where we are today. She explains what Stage 1 involves, beginning on 5th October, and what activities it does and does not include. As well as the cost of living crisis facing Irish teachers, we discuss the difficulties facing education today, including infrastructure problems, class sizes, and rising needs within schools. Máirín answers our questions to help teachers through the coming weeks of uncertainty.

Ever thought about taking a career break? Ever wanted to travel the world? Ever been pressured to show your tattoos on a podcast? Adam (@mister_muinteoir_) has done all three, and he's back with Jane and Hugh to tell us all about it.

From putting in the application for career break (and letting us know which Circular to find it in), planning his way around East Asia, to unexpectedly appearing in Vancouver and ultimately coming home to teach 2nd Class, Adam takes us on a wonderful journey through his last 12 months. He tells us about his amazing experiences abroad, but also how it's been coming back to the classroom this year. What's changed? What's the same? How much does he miss Infants? (A lot.)
