Eager to know what Shannen would do if she were Education Minister, what Lloyd would take from the National Curriculum and what Neil would add? Then this episode holds all the answers you seek. Some light edu-based fun to say a massive thank you to all of my wonderful guests from the first season of Thinking Deeply about Primary Education.
