Kirsty Dewhirst Assistant Principal, Head of Grade, Teacher

Continuing our series, we speak with Kirsty Dewhirst, previously Assistant Principal of Avondale Grammar School Singapore and Head of Grade at St. Joseph's Institution International, Singapore.

In this new mini-series we talk to a series of guests about what motivated them to relocate and teach internationally. ISN Community Manager, Claire King, sits down with several international educators to examine how careers, interests and values have been shaped by decisions to teach abroad. We look at the positives of teaching internationally, as well as the challenges our educators have experienced along the way.  

Kirsty talks openly about her incredible experiences of 'life swapping' to take up her first position internationally in Australia, and how this taste for international education led to future opportunities in Singapore. A wonderfully reflective and compelling guest. 

We hope you enjoy!
