"Empowering Young Voices in Education With Flynn Thomas & Chelsea Cox"

This week on The Learning Future Podcast, we flip the script.
Instead of talking about young people, we talk with them.

Louka Parry is joined by two remarkable Year 11 students from Hunter Valley Grammar School — Flynn Thomas and Chelsea Cox — who offer refreshingly honest insights into what it actually feels like to learn, lead and navigate school today.

🎙️ We dive into:

• The shift from transactional to relational teaching
• Why student agency is essential for deeper engagement
• How future pathways are no longer linear and why that’s a good thing
• The tension between being an achiever vs an explorer
• Social media, AI, and the rapidly changing landscape young people are growing up in
• Their powerful reminders: “See me before you teach me” and “Schools are for students to learn, not just for teachers to teach”

Listening to Flynn and Chelsea is a reminder that the future of education isn’t something we design for young people, it’s something we build with them.
