In this episode of the CAFS Podcast, I'm joined by Nikki Bignell, a CAFS teacher and member of the CAFS collective. Nikki shares her experience teaching CAFS for the past three years, with a focus on compressed curriculum schools. She also discusses her background in teaching PDHPE for 13 years and how it has helped her transition to senior teaching.
Throughout the episode, Nikki provides valuable insights on how to effectively teach CAFS in a compressed curriculum, including strategies for time management and content delivery. She also shares her approach to preparing her students for the upcoming HSC exams, her favourite topics to teach in CAFS, and the importance of building strong relationships with students.
This episode is a must-listen for any CAFS teacher looking to improve their teaching practices, especially those teaching in a compressed curriculum school. Nikki's expertise and passion for teaching CAFS shines through in this engaging and informative conversation.
