This week I arrived in Ankara and jumped on a bus to Cappadocia to stay with Adam Oliver, the head of Robert College in Istanbul - one of Turkey's leading schools.

Listen to this episode to hear about my week and to hear Adam and I chatting about what he thinks is most important for the current generation of pupils that he teaches.

See below for the poem that Adam Oliver told me about:

The Bright Field - R.S.Thomas

I have seen the sun break through

to illuminate a small field

for a while, and gone my way

and forgotten it. But that was the pearl

of great price, the one field that had

treasure in it. I realize now

that I must give all that I have

to possess it. Life is not hurrying

on to a receding future, nor hankering after

an imagined past. It is the turning

aside like Moses to the miracle

of the lit bush, to a brightness

that seemed as transitory as your youth

once, but is the eternity that awaits you.
