This is my chat with Maddie - @vcalteacher

We discuss her time as a 'disruptive' student and what was really going on for her. 

Her focus on harm minimisation and how important it is for students to have a 'safe adult' in their lives.

She also passionately promotes the importance of filling in the gaps of our history as Australians and giving a platform to Indigenous people, businesses and stories as part of our curriculum, especially in Victoria.

DISCLAIMER: Discussion about drug use.

Maddie runs a 'what they don't teach us at university' series on her instagram that I highly recommend you look into. I have even featured to discuss how teaching has changed.
