This week sees us talking to Peter Maskell, a Latin and Classical Civilisations teacher. We discuss his worst ever lesson, how he came to be involved with Classics, as well as what he thinks the future holds for the subject. 

Paul and Pippa also talk through their thoughts on AQA's decision to drop Classical Civilisations and whether single exam boards might be the best way forward. Paul is also given the chance to reminisce when conversation turns to the benefits of FE colleges, while Pippa considers to what age it should be compulsory for students to have to study certain subjects or topics.
