Melissa Kennedy: The Sustainable Teacher in a Digital Age.

Today, I’m joined by Melissa Kennedy - a passionate educator, leader, and storyteller. Melissa is Head of English at her school, a sessional university lecturer, and a presenter who brings depth and clarity to conversations about teaching, leadership, and curriculum. She’s also an accomplished author and was recently recognised as an ACEL New Voice in School Leadership for 2024. Her work lives at the intersection of language, leadership, and learning. Whether she’s guiding students through rich texts or mentoring colleagues, Melissa is all about empowering others to think critically, communicate clearly, and lead with purpose. This is a thoughtful and inspiring conversation.
