Running your own business can be simultaneously the most stressful but the most rewarding thing you can do. It challenges you to be creative, logical, disciplined empathetic and so much more. We sat down with our friend Elena who runs Camden Image Gallery, to discuss what it takes to run a business.

What is investing? It is using time or money to produce a better future. Did schools teach you what you need to know about investing, or highlight the importance of understanding financial matters? We discuss how investing should play a key role in everyone’s lives.

The 11 Plus exam is an exam that children can take in the first month of their final academic year in primary school. It is not a compulsory exam. The 11 plus test is for children who want to gain admission to grammar schools in England. We discuss whether your child should take the 11+. It definitely isn’t, and shouldn’t, be for everyone!

In our pilot podcast, we talked briefly about the future of education. We thought that we ought to revisit the topic in more detail, especially since Facebook has renamed itself Meta (something we still can’t get our head around) and there has been a lot of media hype around the topic. This is an interesting one!

Formal GCSEs and A-Levels exams are going ahead as normal in 2022, however with a few new changes. We discuss these new changes, how we feel about them and how we feel GCSEs should be conducted going forward.

It is the 20th anniversary of The Hunnypot Day Nursery, Huddersfield. Jon (who knows nothing about nurseries!) talks to two experts in the field.  Vicky (the manager) and Rupa (the owner) tell him the purposes of a nursery, the different types of nurseries available, the impact of lockdown on babies, their impressive journeys over the last 20 years and what it takes to run a business like this. It's not always easy, but no two days are the same!
