If your child loves school and worries about what comes after, this helps. Sometimes the real learning starts once school is over.
What happens when you leave a school you loved, only to realise the real learning starts after it is over?
James Pattison is a writer, broadcaster, creative and founder of Miniature whose path ran from the classroom to Radio National and beyond.
His story is about curiosity, confidence and rediscovery, and the risks worth taking when you back yourself.
For parents of a young person who is unsure what comes next, or who thrived at school and fears the drop-off, this is an encouraging reminder that learning and growth continue long after the final exam, often in unexpected and rewarding directions.
• Why the real learning often starts after school
• Backing yourself enough to take a risk
• Building a creative and broadcasting career
• Rediscovering confidence beyond the classroom
• Supporting a young person who loved school
This episode is for parents, students, and lifelong learners who want to remember that the best lessons often come long after the exams are over.
