  • Mr P meets Bridget Phillipson
    Jun 18 2024
    In a special episode of the podcast, Mr P has a chat with the shadow education secretary Bridget Phillipson. Unfortunately, The Other Mr P is away on a residential and therefore couldn't join, so Mr P is having a more serious chat with the potential new education secretary. With the general election less than a month away, he was keen to chat to Bridget about some of the policies announced and hopefully provide teachers and schools staff an opportunity to hear about what changes would be made if Bridget was to become the next education secretary. They were able to cover a range of topics from the levels of child poverty, school funding, the SEND crisis, recruitment and retention, Ofsted, workload, support staff and curriculum reforms. We hope you find it useful and we would love to hear your feedback. Mr P came away from the chat hopeful, with the feeling that Bridget would do what we don't think any Education Secretary has done in the past decade which is engage, value and listen to the profession.

The Other Mr P talks through seeing Boyz 2 Men for the third time. The episode focuses on school trips, with Mr P getting very triggered after seeing a TikTok where the comments were blaming the price of school trips on the fact it needs to cover the cost of teachers going. After a rant about the time and effort that goes into organising a trip and the stress and effort of having to look after children on a trip, the boys share some funny school trip stories which prove that school trips are anything other than a relaxing holiday. Mr P also shares what he thinks is the biggest urban legend of a school trip story before the episode finishes with another shocking parent interaction which will leave you as gobsmacked as the boys were. ​ The LIVE recording of our recent tour show is now available to download - get your copy here - https://2mrpspodcast.vhx.tv/.
