Jesse King, a descendant of the Waanyi people, has spent his life in and around classrooms – first as the child of a teacher, then as one himself. Today, he’s a policy leader and advocate, helping young people thrive as the Aurora Education Foundation’s Head of Impact and Data, and as a member of The Smith Family's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander National Advisory Group.
In this conversation with Doug Taylor, Jesse shares a fresh perspective on Closing the Gap and why redefining success in education matters for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. He also talks about his area of passion – embedding Indigenous Knowledges into STEM – and the benefits this can bring.
