Is Education all that it’s cracked up to be?
After some introductory catch-up waffle, this episode takes the SSR team Frank, Damian and Charlie back to school to have a fresh, critical and completely uniformed look at what works and doesn’t work in Education.
- Are we taught things that are useful?
- Is school where we actually do most of our learning and is there really any place for geography and CDT now we have google and Ikea?
Joining the SSR regulars are 3 special guests comics with unique perspectives on Education.
