BSME Talks!

We are delighted to launch BSME Talks: an industry-leading podcast series that invites renowned educational specialists from the BSME Community to share their insights, ideas and experiences. 

In our very first episode, Nalini Cook (COO, BSME) and Debra Forsyth (CEO, BSME) introduce BSME Talks, a podcast dedicated to showcasing the unique experiences, insights, and innovations of educators in international schools across the Middle East.

We explore why this podcast was created, what listeners can expect from future episodes, and how BSME Talks aims to be a platform for the entire international education community—from newly qualified teachers considering their first overseas posting, to experienced educators returning to the UK, and everyone in between.

Nalini and Debra discuss the vision behind the podcast, highlight key themes such as safeguarding, wellbeing, leadership, curriculum innovation, cultural adaptation, and career pathways, and share a sneak peek of what’s coming in Term 2, including Deep Dive episodes and inspiring educator stories.

Finally, they explain how you can get involved—whether it’s sharing your own experiences, suggesting topics, nominating potential guests, or engaging with the conversation on social media. Listen on your preferred streaming platform via the links below:
