#001 - Welcome to our podcast channel, a place where we will be speaking with staff, pupils, parents (and maybe even some of our children!) and talking, not just about our school, but about all things to do with education, and what makes us passionate about being leaders in the field of Early Years education. 

This is our first episode so it seems fitting to speak to the Head, Liz McLaughlin. Liz is about to explain to us something called, ‘The science of how the brain works’.  We’ll hear about the ways that children learn at school, and we also learn about the future of the school, what we can all expect to see.

So I’m very excited to bring you this opening episode. And it’s my privilege to bring to you a conversation with Liz McLaughlin, Head of Falcons Pre-Prep.
