A Teacher's Honest Take: Why Travel Can Teach More Than School
<p><strong>A Teacher's Honest Take: Why Travel Can Teach More Than SchoolWith Ashlee Hibbert, Teacher, Parent & Founder of Wild School Co</strong></p><p>What if some of the most valuable lessons your child will ever learn happen outside the classroom?</p><p>In this thought-provoking conversation, Liz Volpe sits down with primary school teacher, parent, and Wild School Co founder Ashlee Hibbert to explore the future of education and why real-world experiences may be one of the most powerful learning tools available to children.</p><p>After years working in classrooms, Ashlee began noticing the growing gap between how children naturally learn and what traditional education systems often require. As both a teacher and a mother, she shares a unique perspective on the challenges facing modern education, from increasing classroom pressures and teacher burnout to the loss of creativity, critical thinking, and meaningful life skills.</p><p>Together, Liz and Ashlee discuss why so many children disengage from learning as they get older, the unintended consequences of grades and testing, and how travel can create deeper, more memorable learning experiences that build confidence, curiosity, resilience, and real-world capability.</p><p>From roadschooling and worldschooling to emotional intelligence, AI, and preparing children for a future we can't yet predict, this conversation challenges many of the assumptions we've come to accept about education.</p><p><strong>This episode is for parents, educators, and anyone questioning whether there might be a better way to prepare children for the future.</strong></p><p>• Why Ashlee became a teacher and her mission to make a difference in children's lives</p><p>• What teachers see inside classrooms that most parents never hear about</p><p>• The growing challenges facing schools, teachers, and students</p><p>• Why creativity and critical thinking are often squeezed out of modern education</p><p>• The impact of grades, testing, and comparison on children's confidence</p><p>• Why more children are experiencing anxiety and disengagement from learning</p><p>• The role emotional intelligence should play in education</p><p>• Why schools should be teaching children how to use AI rather than banning it</p><p>• The difference between learning information and experiencing it</p><p>• How travel creates powerful real-world learning opportunities</p><p>• Why children aren't "falling behind" when they learn differently</p><p>• The rise of roadschooling and worldschooling in Australia</p><p>• How Wild School Co helps families confidently learn while travelling</p><p><br></p><p><strong>About Ashlee</strong></p><p>Ashlee Hibbert is a qualified primary school teacher, parent, and founder of Wild School Co, Australia's first roadschooling membership designed specifically for families travelling the country with children aged four to twelve.</p><p>After years in the classroom, Ashlee recognised that some of the most powerful learning happens through real-world experiences, curiosity, and adventure. She created Wild School Co to help families confidently educate their children while travelling, providing curriculum-aligned learning plans, travel-based activities, parent support resources, and a community of like-minded roadschooling families.</p><p>Passionate about helping children learn in ways that honour their individuality, Ashlee is on a mission to make learning simpler, more meaningful, and more connected to the real world.</p><p><a href="http://@wild.school.co" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a>: @wild.school.co</p><p><a href="http://stan.store/wildschoolco" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Stan Store</a>: stan.store/wildschoolco</p><p>Website: <a href="https://wild-school-co.circle.so/wildschoolcollective" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://wild-school-co.circle.so/wildschoolcollective</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>We’d Love Your Input!</strong></p><p>We’re building this with parents, not just for them.</p><ul><li><p>Share your thoughts, experiences, and challenges</p></li><li><p>Take our quick<a href="https://forms.gle/NMCfXGWAD45sK6Jy7" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"> parent survey</a></p></li><li><p>Join the Generation Inspired conversation on<a href="https://www.instagram.com/generationinspired_/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"> insta</a> and be part of shaping what comes next</p></li></ul><p><strong>Looking For A Different Way To Learn?</strong></p><ul><li><p>Follow Tomorrow Hub- the new education movement on<a href="https://www.instagram.com/tomorrowmovement_/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"> insta</a></p></li><li><p>If you’re a parent questioning traditional education, check out Tomorrow Hub - a new learning community designed for the future of work, life, and human potential.<a href="http://www.tomorrowhub.com.au" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"> Learn More About Tomorrow Hub</a></p></li></ul><p><br></p>
