Brent speaks with D’Arcy Richardson for The Young Perspective on the news stories making headlines today.

First, they discuss the growing pay gap in education, where some private school principals are reportedly earning over a million dollars a year — up to 12 times the starting salary of a teacher. Supporters say the role is like running a large business, while critics question whether school leadership should sit in that pay range.

They also look at community reaction to a proposed $1.5 billion Trump-branded skyscraper on the Gold Coast, and whether opposition is about development concerns, politics, or both.

Finally, the conversation turns to junior sport, where high training pressure and early performance pathways are raising concerns about burnout, identity, and whether kids are given enough freedom to simply enjoy sport.

Join the discussion as D’Arcy shares what these issues look like from a younger generation’s point of view.
