Ep 33: Big Announcements!! (...And Some Other Stuff)

Join us for a particularly special episode in which we share some awesome news with you: our much-loved customers! I mean audience... Besides our BIG ANNOUNCEMENTS, we get weirdly deep and discuss self-diagnoses, religion and perform impressions of the Tasmanian Devil... I'm not sure what to say really. It's an odd one. Hopefully by the end you'll understand exactly why! We also host a Q&A section and answer some of the questions that you've written in. So if you want to hear more about Hayden's haircare routine, stay tuned for that part. Thank you for listening and hope you enjoy!

Ep 32: Teaching Assistants - The Unsung Heroes of Education

We all remember our favourite teaching assistants from when we went to school. They are the glue that holds things together and are an amazing support system not only for students, but teachers too. We talk about the role, how it’s being squeezed, and the slow transformation of the role into something that is paid extremely little but with more and more responsibility piled on. We also have a few messages to chat about from you lovely listeners and catch up on our week! Thank you for listening and hope you enjoy!

Ep 31: What Is The Point Of Marking?

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.

Ep 27: The Toxicity of Teacher TikTok

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.

Ep 26: Why Do Some Teachers Struggle With The Summer Holidays?

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.

Ep 25: Mr P on Ofsted, AI & Growing His Online Brand

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!
