This week, we're joined by Laura McInerney, a former teacher turned journalist and creator of the app Teacher Tapp.

In the last of our summer holiday specials, we delve into the data her app tells us about the state of teaching and the education system. You can hear if the feelings and thoughts you have about teaching are shared across the board.

We'll be back next week with the first episode of the new term.
