    Smart Parents and their Best Tricks

    Ask A Teacher

    Have you ever sat in a parent/teacher interview and wondered what the heck your kids teacher is thinking about you? Are they judging your parenting? Do they think you’re annoying? Do they even CARE? The parent/ teacher world has always been a little tricky to navigate. Especially with all the misconceptions out there, so we decided to ask a teacher with over 30 years experience everything we had ever wanted to know. From how they feel when we volunteer at school through to what goes through their minds when they receive an email from us at 10pm at night.

Jo Abi is on a mission to crack the secrets of the school yard and on this episode she’s joined by writer and fellow device wrangler Jackie Lunn to work out how you can get prepared for the school year in the best way possible.
