Are You Listening? All about education
Are You Listening? is back and our first episode of 2024 is
all about education. Love it or hate it, we have all had to go through it. This episode tackles a question many young people have asked throughout the generations, why is it a one-size-fits-all system?
Trigger warning: Mental health, Racism, death
****
This episode is brilliantly hosted by Hamzah (He/Him), alongside Syd (He/Him), T (She/Her) and Esah (He/Him), encapsulates a lot of the feelings of young people who have been or are going through the education system. The pressures are all expressed in this episode. If you can relate to what the podcast crew are saying, we would love to hear about your experiences too.
As Hamzah said in his closing address, we really want educators and the government to listen to this and hear what young people have to say. The UCL research showed a very clear relationship between academic pressure and mental ill health.

This isn’t a coincidence. We can all work together, educators, youth work practitioners, children’s workers, and governments to make sure that education isn’t resulting in a depletion of young people’s mental health.
