Why are teachers leaving in record numbers? Why won’t new graduates join the profession? And has public respect for teachers hit an all-time low?
In this show, we explore the pressures, perceptions, and politics shaping modern teaching in the UK. From workload and behaviour to pay, status, and social expectations, we ask the big question: has Britain stopped valuing its teachers?
Featuring real voices from classrooms this is a conversation about the future of education — and the people holding it together.
