002 Requires Improvement - Conferences, 4 Day Week, OFSTED And Headteachers, Testing, Decolonising The Curriculum

In our sophomore episode of RI, with lead-host Charlie, we are joined by a new co-host Tom, along with Anu, Lauren, Lee and Nick from our first episode, to cast a critical eye over the hot current topics in education news, with an unashamedly radical political outlook.

In this episode we cover the Labour and Conservative party conferences, discuss the merits and pitfalls of a 4-day week, headteachers who defend OFSTED, primary school testing and decolonising the curriculum.
