About This Podcast

Catholic Education Matters is a podcast produced by Catholic Education Sandhurst. Education isn’t just about what happens in the classroom, it’s about the people, the heart, and the purpose behind it all. That’s why this podcast explores the big ideas and everyday moments that shape learning in our schools, from the latest research and innovative teaching practices to the real stories of educators, students and parents. With insights from respected leaders, expert guests and voices from our 56 schools and kindergartens across regional Victoria, we’ll keep asking the question: What matters in education?
