Have loved listening to different experts explaining how they think, what they’ve learned and how this impacts their teaching and that of their colleagues. Really accessible and easy to listen to.
Interesting and relevant
Excellent and informative podcast
A very clear and powerful message about the best approaches to use with our PP/ disadvantaged pupils, especially in light of our current situation. Well worth a listen to focus thinking - full of evidence, knowledge and practical ideas.
This was a really good episode which pretty quickly got to the heart of the issue - ditch clumsy labels, assess learning needs, focus relentlessly on quality teaching and use interventions judiciously. Marc is a really interesting guest and has a good rapport with the interviewer. I have subscribed and look forward to more episodes.
Definitely worth a listen
A fantastic new education podcast, focused on pupil premium in this episode, very ably facilitated by Dr Caroline Creaby. Looking forward to the next one!
An insightful and thought-provoking first episode with lots of practical ideas to support PP students in the classroom. Well structured and insightful, I look forward to forthcoming episodes.
This is a great new education podcast. The intertwining of research and practical ideas is well done and the conversation between host and guest flows easily. Will look forward to more episodes.
