Listen "When Bright Students Switch Off"
Episode Synopsis
Why do so many bright students lose faith in school and stop engaging? In this episode, we talk with veteran educator Kathy Collins about what happens when kids conclude the system isn’t worth believing in. We explore how high achievers can become disillusioned, why they sometimes withdraw or resist learning, and how teachers can rebuild trust so students see school as a place where thinking still matters.Resources:Hal Gregorson question burst
