The School of School

Written by: The School of School
  • Summary

  • Becoming an effective teacher takes years of experience. Lucky for you, our podcast hosts have seen enough ‘aha!’ moments throughout their education careers to know which ideas are useful (and which should be avoided). Join Andy, Robin and Adam as they unpack current pedagogical thinking, chat about their education obsessions and share invaluable teaching tips for the classroom and at home. From big questions like, where does the inspiration to learn come from? To smaller ones like, which writing tool is better: pencils or pens? Tune in to learn more than you needed to know about learning.

  • Episode 200: We want a piece of this, this is too good to miss! — 10 Years on, this School shares their incredible journey
    Jan 29 2025

    Organic growth, Precise resourcing, and more. We’re so lucky this week to be joined by both Rosie Ross and Neil Le Feuvre from St Bridget’s school in the Wirral, UK. Our guests have been on an incredible journey with their maths, for over a decade now. How important is sticking at it, even when things may be wobbly? Are elements of this way of teaching maths used in other subject areas? Plus, Rosie shares an important realisation, ‘we don't just have to be able to do the maths, we have to understand the journey of the maths.’
