It was SUCH an honour and pleasure to have Dame Alison Peacock AND Professor Sam Twiselton together on the #PrimaryFutures podcast. I think the conversation is really worth a listen, they both have some important and powerful things to say.

This is not a bad announcement & any investment and guidance for #edtech is welcome - but I wonder what Β£4m could fund in terms of creating better solutions for our ailing school system? Eg #PrimaryFutures is pointing to the big questions that need answers

Recording the #PrimaryFutures podcast has been a huge privilege and it's great to see the episodes coming out. You can hear my conversations with experts on diverse areas of primary education. People coming from really different standpoints from those familiar from twitter. Give it a listen!

I have to recommend #PrimaryFutures as I present it but the secret to its success is the brilliant guests we've secured for the first season and my intentionally getting out of their way as much as possible.
