Teach Sleep Repeat

Helllllloooooooo again and welcome back to another episode of Teach, Sleep, Repeat! We are keeping the face-to-face podcasts AND we genuinely think this is one of our funniest episodes yet. Get ready for a whirlwind tour of Hayden's latest stag do adventures, Dylan's Harvest Festival song game (pure laughter) and our good old chat answering the question posed in the title of this podcast.... What is the point of marking? It's time consuming. It's not very helpful. Why do we continue to think it's important? We hope you enjoy the episode. Please do give us a 5-star review and follow us.

Join sweaty messes Dylan and Hayden for the second instalment of 'recording a podcast together in a tiny room' We discuss how we're banned from working in the same year group, our general classroom banter and our opinions on children's behaviour. How much impact does school really have on a child's behaviour? Thank you for listening or watching. We love our loyal customers. We love it even more when you write to us!

New school year = New season! We are back after a week off and we are actually together in person! We talk about the start to the school year, moving house on the last day of the summer holidays, and discuss an email from a listener who is already disgruntled! Oh and the small matter of a whole bunch of schools potentially about to collapse... Thank you for listening or watching. We hope you enjoy the (awful) Geordie accents.

The start of the new school year is just around the corner and we are super excited to get back teaching! We talk about all of our favourite top tips for stepping back onto the crazy rollercoaster ride that is Term 1 as a teacher. This covers everything from how to build relationships with your new class, looking after yourself and setting really high expectations (and how to stick to them)! We also each give our top 3 unique tips that you can put in place from day 1 to help you hit the ground running! Hope you enjoy this one.

The indisputable rise of teachers posting content on TikTok is causing heated online debate. From setting unrealistic expectations, to sometimes being an outright safeguarding issue, we discuss the topic in depth. - Does it encourage 'bad' teaching practice? - Are inexperienced staff having the bar set too high? - Should we ever be posting content including children online? - Should personal devices EVER be used during lessons? We hope you enjoy the chat and we would LOVE to hear what you think about this one.

Every teacher has heard it all before when it comes to the 13 weeks 'off' a year that we get. It's used as a stick to beat us with, to justify tonnes of extra work and (even though we are in a retention crisis) a reason as to why our job is 'easy'. So why do so many teachers struggle with the 6 week break? Why would some rather see it scrapped altogether? What are the pros and cons? Join us for a great discussion, as well as the usual wiffle-waffle including: - Dylan turning 30 and why the 30s stereotypes are true.. - An embarrassing chest hair related story - Hayden's new obsession - a couple of funny stories from the classroom - a toxic SLT anecdote! Hope you enjoy.

Lee Parkinson (A.K.A. Mr P) is a hugely popular primary school teacher who has grown a huge online following through offering training courses to school staff, creating funny education related memes & hosting an award-winning podcast with his brother (2 Mr Ps in a Podcast). Lee sat down with us to chat about all things 'ICT with Mr P' and how the decade long slog got him to where he is today. We discuss Ofsted with brutal honesty, government funding and the effect it's had on our schools and also the impact AI could have on teacher workload. Lee was a fantastic guest and we hope you find the episode as engaging and fun as we did!

The summer holidays are in full swing and we are carrying on with weekly episodes of the podcast! This week, Hayden takes the lead and is in complete control... And he wants to probe and find our more about Dylan's appearance (and win!) on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire a couple of years ago. We also talk about an end of year quiz we put on for out colleagues and share with you guys a 'Family Fortunes' round from REAL children in our school. Hayden rounds it off with a Toxic SLT story and a *disgusting* story from the classroom. Hope you enjoy!

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode! This week, we had the pleasure of sitting down to chat with Rob Smith (the founder of Literacy Shed). Rob's insight into his career path and what led him to building one of the most successful and widely used educational website subscriptions for schools. Rob is funny, interesting and honest. We hope you enjoy this wide-ranging chat as much as we did & that Rob's shredder is still in tact...

The school year is (basically) over (for most people...)! This week, we have a chat about the end of the school year, and all of the mayhem that comes with Summer 2 (the last half-term before the summer holidays). We talk about how 'winding down' is a massive myth, reflect on transition day with our new classes & Hayden even has another of his weekly bird-inspired stories. We can't believe the year is coming to an end, but the podcast will march on! Thanks for listening.
