    #005 Hogwarts is a special measures school and we're here to tell you why

    Today, Martin and Jade combine two of their favourite things for their ultimate podcast topic: teaching and Harry Potter. Poor behaviour management, lack of enrichment opportunities, inconsistent teaching methods, lack of challenge.. just a few things that unfortunately, Hogwarts got wrong. It'a good to critique the things you love and today, the hosts of TeachAir suggest that Hogwarts is a special measures school and would not survive an Ofsted inspection.

    #001 Jade and Martin defy distance

    Welcome to the first ever episode of TeachAir Podcast, a podcast connecting teachers across the globe. We are Jade and Martin, two primary school teachers who met when teaching in the same school in Liverpool. We've since left the glorious days of working in Year 6 together behind and are now separated by continents and time zones. Martin is in Qatar, whilst Jade has just returned to Liverpool having taught in Australia. Together they want to talk teachers, teaching.. and the current issues, news, misconceptions and ideas surrounding the profession. With the help of other teachers and education professionals along the way, they aspire to open up conversation about the best job in the world. Because they teachers love talking about teaching, especially with each other.
