On inspiring the next gen of teachers with the Future Teachers Club - Teach NSW Podcast S2 E18

What if students could experience the joy of teaching before finishing high school? In this episode, we sit down with Perry, founder of the Future Teachers Club (FTC) and Sheridan, FTC coordinator, to explore how this innovative co-curricular initiative at Macquarie Fields High School is shaping the next generation of teachers. Founded by Perry in 2013, the FTC has welcomed over 300 participants in 2024 alone. Students in Years 8 to 12 get a real taste of teaching, from delivering microlessons aligned to the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers to attending university lectures and building core communication and leadership skills. More than a pathway into teaching, the FTC is a community built on mentorship, advocacy and pride in the profession. Perry and Sheridan share how the club has reignited their own passion for teaching, and how former FTC alumni are now returning to Macquarie Fields High School as teachers themselves. Tune in to discover what it’s like when students step to the other side of the desk, and find confidence, connection and a sense of purpose along the way. We acknowledge that this episode of the Teach NSW Podcast was recorded on the homelands of the Darug people.
