“What a brilliant show, I’ve loved listening to it on the way to work. It just shows you that not all teachers are miserable robots but people with their own lives. Really looking forward to series 2! Ignore the bad reviews, just people trying to find something to moan about!”

The participants are full of enthusiasm, and their anecdotes are sometimes funny, and sometimes shocking. I am always excited when I get a notification to say the latest episode is...”Read full review »

“I honestly think something like this is completely overdue. Granted, some of the views expressed might not be to your taste, or constitute 'moaning', or whatever else. But what overrides all of that is that this reminds us all that teachers are just human beings, like the rest of us, and...”Read full review »

Some of the reviews mention being uncomfortable with some of the ideas expressed, but healthy debate and neutrality is what the BBC is about and is also what is needed to drive education forward. It has changed my...”Read full review »

“This episode made me glad my children are grown up and no longer in school. The arrogance of teachers thinking that only they know how to teach. That they always need more resources and teaching assistants. Saying they will not work beyond their 9 to 4 and not on Saturday. They seemed idle and...”Read full review »

“As a teacher, I found this podcast absolutely great. It is funny but still delves into serious topics. Even though it may be based for current/former teachers, I think it is great for others too as everyone can learn something from it. A real range of voices too. It is great to listen to a host...”Read full review »

“A cleverly structured - clearly, there is a teacher’s mind at work here - heart-warming, inspiring new podcast. Recommendable not just for teachers, but also parents and even students. If all our schoolteachers are this conscientious, generous and funny, are children are in excellent hands.”

“All far too ‘aren’t we ever so funny’ for my liking. The incessant loud laughing at one another’s supposedly funny comments was tiresome. If you’d told me this had been produced by a Year 10 media studies class I’d have suggested not entering them for the GCSE.”
