Deputy Head, UAE
The Educator’s Corner is a monthly podcast that creates space for important conversations about the issues, challenges and opportunities facing our schools and our communities.
Hosted by Kai Vacher, Principal of British School Muscat and British School Salalah, it welcomes influential educators from all over the world to explore how we can do things differently to do them better.
Since 2023, we have published three seasons and built an engaged audience of school leaders spanning three main regions.
As the podcast enters its fourth year, we are offering a limited number of partnership opportunities to brands offering high-quality products and services that will help our listeners solve the biggest challenges facing their schools and their communities today.
Bypass bureaucracy and speak directly to the decision maker.
Show up where leaders look for solutions.
Our listeners are actively seeking solutions to current challenges. Present your product or service when they’re more receptive to pitches and thinking about change.
Speed up the sales cycle.
92% of consumers trust peer recommendations. With our endorsement, you will quickly gain the confidence of school leaders, helping you get demos, meetings and leads—with no hidden commission fees.
Stay top-of-mind with education leaders.
Regularly reach new and returning listeners from all over the world with an embedded advert that runs in every episode you feature on, even after our partnership ends.
