Description

Great teaching isn’t just about lesson plans - it’s about reflection, growth, and truly understanding student needs. 

In this episode of Safeguarding Redefined, Chris chats with Martin Tormey from Opalite Learning, an organisation dedicated to transforming education through reflective practice and holistic professional development.

With a background in teaching, headship, and pastoral care, Martin and his wife Rosaria, are on a mission to help educators embed pastoral care into every aspect of student support. 

They work with schools, colleges, and learning institutions to ensure that staff training and student wellbeing isn’t just a tick-box exercise, but a meaningful journey of continuous improvement.
