What does it actually look like when an international school puts students — not tests — at the center of everything?

Rory Parkinson and Heather Adkins from Woodland Star International School in Nairobi, Kenya, join Coach Scott Martin to pull back the curtain on one of East Africa's most distinctive learning environments.

In this episode, you'll hear about Woodland Star's two-teacher-per-15-students model, their mastery-based and project-based approach, and how they're serving neurodiverse learners alongside neurotypical students on a stunning 100-acre campus — without sacrificing academic rigor.
