What being on TV teaches you about your school. | Vic Goddard | TEDxNorwichED

So, is having TV cameras in your school for a full year a good idea or not? Vic looks at some of the lessons learnt about his school, teaching and the world in general through allowing TV cameras into his school, and comes to some meaningful, insightful and important conclusions.
Council-estate born and raised, Vic has worked his way up through the system from a PE teacher via Head of Department and a brief stint in Cairo, to being one of the most high-profile, controversial, innovative and bluntly passionate heads we have met. And if you had seen Educating Essex on Channel you will know that for yourself. Vic, a qualified and experienced Dive Master to boot, not only brings drive, creativity and innovation to the role, putting the children he so clearly cares for centre stage at every opportunity, he also brings the human touch to what he unashamedly describes as ‘his other family’. His passion for education - an education that refuses to accept limits in what young people and their teachers are capable of - is matched by his genuine zeal for educational leadership, which he describes as ‘the best job in the world.'
