We asked you on Instagram what you wanted this week's topic to be... and you decided homework!


It's a hot topic and even Dylan and Hayden don't agree on this one.


We also catch up on what we have been up to over the Easter break and share some HILARIOUS answers from kids on their worksheets.


We had fun with this one. Enjoy!

1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,900
All right, episode 11, we've
done some kind of funny skit so

2
00:00:02,900 --> 00:00:05,000
far, the people love it, they
like Preston playing.

3
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,400
We get straight into a little
joke, but I think in this time,

4
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,600
we have to go hard.
Okay, we need to really push

5
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,300
forward with getting the people
to share the podcast with their

6
00:00:13,300 --> 00:00:15,300
friends.
Ok, so any ideas, well, we need

7
00:00:15,300 --> 00:00:18,100
more customers, don't we?
And as much as they go to our

8
00:00:18,100 --> 00:00:20,000
Spotify and they give us ratings
and stuff.

9
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,300
Yeah, you're right.
We need people to share it on

10
00:00:22,300 --> 00:00:24,100
their social media.
Perhaps Facebook stuff.

11
00:00:24,100 --> 00:00:25,800
Like this is the thing.
They're on our Instagram.

12
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:27,700
They're interacting with us.
The like an our post was telling

13
00:00:27,700 --> 00:00:29,500
them to get on their.
Turn us to email us.

14
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,200
Anna stories, but the end of the
day we want to grow.

15
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,400
Well, I grow do.
Anybody had been waiting for us

16
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,200
to grow grow, grow grow, grow
podcast money, right?

17
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:41,200
You know, we've got 45 seconds
or so, let's just tell them in a

18
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,400
funny way, because otherwise,
pretty pathetic, isn't it?

19
00:00:43,500 --> 00:00:46,200
You listening to two fully grown
men sit in their rooms.

20
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,900
We're gonna have a lot of cars
that alone like me, like me.

21
00:00:48,900 --> 00:00:51,000
So, he time think of a really
funny way of just getting them

22
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,200
to do it.
That's clever.

23
00:00:52,300 --> 00:00:54,600
We can't just tell them like, it
has to be as like a story.

24
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:55,900
You know how we did a story last
week.

25
00:00:55,900 --> 00:00:57,500
We can't just tell them because
it's pathetic.

26
00:00:57,500 --> 00:00:59,700
They literally so pathetic.
If we're lucky.

27
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,300
To see if we just do a thing
where were like, hey guys, just

28
00:01:02,300 --> 00:01:04,500
come and like share our podcast.
They're going to cringe.

29
00:01:04,500 --> 00:01:07,500
They're gonna hate it.
Like me, they call your friends

30
00:01:07,500 --> 00:01:09,900
like me as well, please.
So I could do this more.

31
00:01:09,900 --> 00:01:12,700
It's just, honestly, I don't
disturb in this business.

32
00:01:12,900 --> 00:01:15,400
I'm done, I'm finished.
Okay, let's forget about it,

33
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:16,200
stupid idea.
Yeah.

34
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:22,700
Right.
Hello everyone.

35
00:01:22,700 --> 00:01:26,400
Hello everyone and welcome back
to episode 11 of teach sleep.

36
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:31,400
Repeat, my name is Dylan.
Okay, how is it the same way?

37
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:32,700
It's fine.
We'll carry on, no, no, we'll

38
00:01:32,700 --> 00:01:33,900
carry on.
We'll carry on is fine.

39
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,000
And my name is Heather what he
did.

40
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:41,500
I don't spill that you have
because you know very well every

41
00:01:41,500 --> 00:01:43,000
now and then you put a little
shopping list.

42
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,100
You don't actually have it's
because I'm really close to the

43
00:01:45,107 --> 00:01:46,800
microphone.
I don't want to, I don't want to

44
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,900
hurt the Audiences is I care
about them?

45
00:01:48,900 --> 00:01:51,800
I don't.
Obviously when I start screaming

46
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:56,000
my laughs oh yeah.
Anyway, you've really thrown me

47
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,800
off now because I thrive on on
routine and now I don't really

48
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:00,500
know.
Can't say.

49
00:02:00,500 --> 00:02:02,700
You can't say you the exact same
thing that you always say.

50
00:02:02,700 --> 00:02:04,300
The beginning was get this
started.

51
00:02:04,500 --> 00:02:06,400
Hi everyone.
Welcome back to another episode

52
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,900
of THC repeat.
My name is Dylan and my name is

53
00:02:08,900 --> 00:02:13,000
Hayden, and this is episode 11.
We are smashing through the

54
00:02:13,008 --> 00:02:15,700
double digits with our second
double digit episode, White

55
00:02:15,700 --> 00:02:16,900
House, it feels.
Yeah, I'm yeah.

56
00:02:16,900 --> 00:02:20,400
Smashing through Whole to, to
hold it.

57
00:02:20,900 --> 00:02:22,500
You know what?
They'll be many more to come.

58
00:02:22,500 --> 00:02:25,200
I'm sure before we reach the
elusive, three digits.

59
00:02:25,300 --> 00:02:27,500
That's the big jump isn't
actually in go from two digits.

60
00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:29,500
The three digit.
Can you imagine iPhone 3 digit

61
00:02:29,500 --> 00:02:32,400
24 Direction?
But now that's not happen during

62
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:36,100
will make it to 100.
That's a lot of episodes 100

63
00:02:36,100 --> 00:02:37,300
weeks.
That's two years, right?

64
00:02:37,300 --> 00:02:39,900
Yeah, absolutely.
Not can't part of your knee.

65
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:42,100
We're going to a story spin.
Yeah.

66
00:02:42,100 --> 00:02:46,300
Well as we all know, it's been
half time and truly truly

67
00:02:46,700 --> 00:02:50,100
genuinely Don't think I've
spoken to you like at all.

68
00:02:50,100 --> 00:02:52,800
Know in about in about a week's
it almost since the last

69
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,000
podcast.
So for the first time in

70
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,800
history, I'm going to actually
be genuinely listening and

71
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,400
paying attention to what you're
saying and this segment of the

72
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:00,900
pile.
So Hayden will have, you know, I

73
00:03:00,908 --> 00:03:03,500
know, I know we haven't been
talking much and I know you kind

74
00:03:03,500 --> 00:03:06,100
of got used to it as well,
because what did happen was the

75
00:03:06,100 --> 00:03:08,500
last couple of days.
If you look back through our

76
00:03:08,500 --> 00:03:11,100
messenger chat, maybe you're not
even aware of it, but I would

77
00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:13,000
have messaged you, right?
And then you have to apply for

78
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,300
hours.
And by that point I've already

79
00:03:14,300 --> 00:03:15,800
moved on.
I've missed you something else.

80
00:03:16,100 --> 00:03:18,600
You don't reply to that either.
I've got to a third thing and

81
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:19,700
then you might replace that
third thing.

82
00:03:19,700 --> 00:03:22,000
You just completely ignoring the
other two points in which I

83
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,300
spoke to today.
You've done that like three

84
00:03:23,300 --> 00:03:26,900
times in the last few days just
below.

85
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:28,700
Okay?
I guess he doesn't want to reply

86
00:03:28,700 --> 00:03:31,400
to them.
So essentially what has happened

87
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,400
is I we haven't fallen into this
trap of not talking to each

88
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,200
other.
I've just been blatantly

89
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,500
ignoring you.
Okay, I'm sorry.

90
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:43,100
I'll have a little flick through
after if anything pops out that

91
00:03:43,100 --> 00:03:45,100
I'm one to talk about our reply.
Yeah.

92
00:03:45,300 --> 00:03:46,200
Yeah.
That's fair enough.

93
00:03:46,500 --> 00:03:47,400
No, it's fine.
Don't worry about it, man.

94
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,900
Sorry, I had a good time anyway
away from you.

95
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,700
So go on.
Tell me what happened while you

96
00:03:52,708 --> 00:03:58,700
were away.
That's the staff asked me.

97
00:03:58,700 --> 00:04:01,600
What?
My job is to ask me every 10 the

98
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:02,500
best man.
Yeah.

99
00:04:02,500 --> 00:04:03,900
All right, all right.
Go.

100
00:04:03,900 --> 00:04:05,900
Listen to last week's episode.
If you want to hear Dylan, rinse

101
00:04:05,900 --> 00:04:08,900
me about about trying to feel
good about being best man.

102
00:04:08,900 --> 00:04:12,000
Anyway, so last episode I did
mention that was gonna stack T.

103
00:04:12,300 --> 00:04:14,600
I've been on that stack do now
it was a really good, really

104
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:15,100
good.
Fun.

105
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,600
We went up to the Lake District
and we did Gorge walking and

106
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,399
Dylan.
I've actually just sent, you

107
00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:22,000
keep having those your phone.
I've just sent you a video.

108
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,600
Wait for you.
So like, you know, full, well,

109
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:24,900
you need to send me three
different things.

110
00:04:25,100 --> 00:04:26,800
The look at your messages.
Yeah.

111
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,400
Yeah.
I sent you about 12 messages

112
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:29,600
asking, if you are right.
You ignore me.

113
00:04:29,900 --> 00:04:32,200
But if you look at your phone,
I've sent you a little video for

114
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:36,000
you to watch what I'm talking of
me, jumping off of a Gorge.

115
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,800
So in the Lake District, we
climbed up a Gorge which was

116
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,600
pretty eventful on the way up.
The idea was there like big

117
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,700
pools of water that you jump in
from the rocks and one of them

118
00:04:48,500 --> 00:04:53,300
was 14 meters high, okay?
Which is, which is pretty high.

119
00:04:53,500 --> 00:04:54,900
I'm not gonna lie, it's like
three stories.

120
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,300
Or it sounds really rubbish.
When you say things are m in

121
00:04:57,300 --> 00:04:59,200
height, I know.
It does 14 sounds like nothing

122
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,000
but 14 meters is huge.
Yeah, I know, ice exactly what I

123
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,500
thought when I saw when I read
that it was 40 meters as I.

124
00:05:04,500 --> 00:05:07,300
Uh, so it's fairly big jump
seeing it though.

125
00:05:07,500 --> 00:05:10,200
I was like, really, this is a
cliff, this is a cliff, and

126
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,600
we're jumping off.
And that's like, that's like 15

127
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,000
meters.
If you think the exactly, then

128
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:15,500
that's basically 20, if you
round it.

129
00:05:15,500 --> 00:05:19,800
So, we basically jumped 20
meters, 25 meters near you.

130
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,200
If you take into account the
feeling quite of 100, you know,

131
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:24,900
is that?
We were dropping a course.

132
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:29,400
And yeah, I just want you to see
it because it was exhilarating,

133
00:05:29,500 --> 00:05:31,900
I mean, it's pretty cool.
I think we're going to post this

134
00:05:31,900 --> 00:05:34,500
on our Instagram, because it's
one of those like optical

135
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:36,200
illusions almost where you jump
in.

136
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,200
And I expected to hit the water
much sooner than you do.

137
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:39,700
Yeah.
Because you can already tell how

138
00:05:39,700 --> 00:05:41,800
deep it.
I tell you what, it was that

139
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,200
kind of height.
I hit the water such speed, but

140
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:49,400
when I went under water, my
right eyelid just completely

141
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:50,700
came up like with the water
pressure.

142
00:05:50,700 --> 00:05:53,000
Got in there and I felt like my
eyelids slap.

143
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,800
The top of my forehead.
Not the my forehead.

144
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:59,000
Ends.
But no, sorry, I'm sorry, I'm

145
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,500
sorry.
You could barely touch the top

146
00:06:00,500 --> 00:06:03,700
of your forehead so far back.
Yeah, okay.

147
00:06:03,700 --> 00:06:05,000
Alright.
So more, maybe I exaggerated a

148
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,800
bit touch, it felt like a touch
my eyebrow.

149
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,700
When I came up from the water, I
was half expecting my eye to be

150
00:06:09,700 --> 00:06:11,500
like, hanging out, really
dramatic.

151
00:06:11,500 --> 00:06:13,800
It was absolutely fine.
It did nothing on my eyelid,

152
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,700
just flicked up and back down
again from the water pressure.

153
00:06:16,100 --> 00:06:18,800
But oh man, it was so cool.
And the dangerous thing about

154
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:22,300
this jump was halfway down,
there was a massive ledge

155
00:06:22,500 --> 00:06:24,800
jutting out, which earlier on in
the war.

156
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,400
What like, when we were climbing
up in the first place, we

157
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,600
actually climbed onto that ledge
and jumped into that same pool

158
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,300
of water, and then sort of later
on when we got to the top of the

159
00:06:32,300 --> 00:06:34,700
gorge weakest kind of circle
back around the top and then it

160
00:06:34,700 --> 00:06:37,000
was like, oh, you can actually
jump from the top of you want.

161
00:06:37,300 --> 00:06:39,100
You just got to not hit that
massive ledge that we were

162
00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:41,800
jumping from earlier.
So we had, that's a clear.

163
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,300
It not everyone did this one.
I think it was even the guy just

164
00:06:44,300 --> 00:06:45,700
like to say that everyone.
Cleared it.

165
00:06:45,700 --> 00:06:49,400
No, no, no.
Like half the group just didn't

166
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,000
even attempt this one.
It was a bit sketchy.

167
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,600
Yeah, but even the guide was
like yeah, I don't normally take

168
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,500
groups To this one because it's
a bit bit Dodge, but you guys

169
00:06:57,500 --> 00:06:59,100
seem really Keen.
So there's that, you know, if

170
00:06:59,108 --> 00:07:01,700
you want to give it a go, you
can have your Mustang.

171
00:07:01,700 --> 00:07:03,900
That's so cool.
It was so scary, man but I'm

172
00:07:03,900 --> 00:07:06,600
glad I did it like the feeling
of just that you know, that, you

173
00:07:06,608 --> 00:07:08,600
know, when you get like a
thrilling experience, the only

174
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,500
last a couple seconds, but it's
like it's such an unreal, like

175
00:07:11,500 --> 00:07:13,800
Adrenaline Rush.
It's like when when it's

176
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,600
lunchtime and the Lunch Ladies,
come around and say this pear.

177
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,500
Dessert left that Rush?
Yeah.

178
00:07:17,500 --> 00:07:20,400
Oh my gosh, and you know, it's a
whole tray, a whole train.

179
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,000
You can eat as much as you want.
I had an amazing time.

180
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,100
I would definitely recommend if
Select thrill-seeking, that sort

181
00:07:26,100 --> 00:07:28,200
of stuff.
Yeah, so cool.

182
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,900
So cool.
I would say that you're a, you

183
00:07:30,900 --> 00:07:33,700
do look really scared of that
video, which is quite funny but

184
00:07:33,700 --> 00:07:35,600
then you do it.
So, fair play to you jokes

185
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,600
aside, I don't think I'd be able
to do that.

186
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,800
No truly, so very good, anything
else.

187
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,100
Yeah, so obviously did that.
We also went to The Crystal Maze

188
00:07:44,100 --> 00:07:45,900
experience in Manchester.
That was really cool.

189
00:07:45,900 --> 00:07:47,200
They've got one of my eyes done
that.

190
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,200
Oh yeah, you've done it.
I forgot.

191
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:49,500
You've done that before.
It's amazing.

192
00:07:49,500 --> 00:07:50,600
Right?
Yeah, it was really cool.

193
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,500
Like it felt like a proper TV
set like really, really sick.

194
00:07:55,500 --> 00:07:57,300
I expected it to be a little bit
like, you know, when you're

195
00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,100
obviously in TV like Nikki,
right?

196
00:07:59,100 --> 00:08:00,900
But yeah, they put all the
effort into TV and I thought for

197
00:08:00,900 --> 00:08:03,000
this thing it'll just be like,
heart, you know, half there but

198
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,900
it was just like full-on amazing
and the host taking us around

199
00:08:05,900 --> 00:08:08,800
with so good like really
over-the-top acting.

200
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,800
I love that because you know
that's just what you need that

201
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,700
energy.
He had such a good time such

202
00:08:12,700 --> 00:08:14,000
good time.
I did feel quite good because

203
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,300
there was one room.
The first room I had to do was

204
00:08:17,900 --> 00:08:19,900
it's really weird.
I walked in those is guy dressed

205
00:08:19,900 --> 00:08:23,200
as the Easter Bunny.
It's like so I know literally

206
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,400
like an actor just just walking
around in He's supposed to be a

207
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,600
bit like bit strange and what a
job and he dressed as the Easter

208
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,700
Bunny with this crop top on.
So his belly was, I was really

209
00:08:30,700 --> 00:08:34,100
funny the way you learned.
And he made me sit down, he was

210
00:08:34,100 --> 00:08:35,600
like, right in this room.
They're going to be three

211
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,500
questions if you get two or more
than right?

212
00:08:37,500 --> 00:08:40,100
You get the crystal.
Okay, here we go.

213
00:08:40,100 --> 00:08:42,200
So I to sit on this like,
treloggen, it's really

214
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,300
hilariously like Easter Bunny,
kind of Easter eggs everywhere,

215
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,600
you know, setting and the first
question, I want to see if you

216
00:08:47,608 --> 00:08:50,000
get it right, okay?
But I'm just gonna say what you

217
00:08:50,008 --> 00:08:51,400
said, he gave me three options,
right?

218
00:08:51,500 --> 00:08:58,700
He said On Easter Sunday MNS
cell which of the following type

219
00:08:58,700 --> 00:09:02,000
of Easter eggs.
The most a milk, chocolate

220
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:07,600
Easter eggs, be white chocolate,
see dark chocolate, That was the

221
00:09:07,608 --> 00:09:10,900
question.
So, my gut instinct is, is milk

222
00:09:10,900 --> 00:09:13,200
chocolate, but because he's
asking them because it's Ms, and

223
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,100
because they're all their Posh,
I'll say dark chocolate.

224
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,100
Is that your final answer?
Yeah.

225
00:09:17,100 --> 00:09:18,300
Okay.
I'm gonna say what I did is I

226
00:09:18,308 --> 00:09:20,800
felt really smug just before the
whole team.

227
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,500
I like questioning to doing the
same sort of thing.

228
00:09:22,500 --> 00:09:24,000
I like dark chocolate.
Maybe it's Ms. B.

229
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,800
Pasha Pasha.
Oh, it's closed.

230
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,500
I need those.
Yeah.

231
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,500
And I realized last like
literally just before we were

232
00:09:31,500 --> 00:09:33,200
about to put an answer in, I was
like, hang on a minute, very

233
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:34,800
good Easter Sunday.
At the shops are open.

234
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,000
It's a trick question.
So I got that one, right?

235
00:09:37,500 --> 00:09:40,100
And I was like yes because then
afterwards, I'm refresh right to

236
00:09:40,100 --> 00:09:42,900
not trust the question.
Yeah, I was wrong in my process.

237
00:09:42,900 --> 00:09:45,000
Yeah, exactly that.
So I think the kind of game in

238
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:46,600
this one was because you need to
write.

239
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,200
I think generally people get the
first one wrong and then they

240
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,100
have to get the next to right
because the next to actually

241
00:09:51,100 --> 00:09:53,300
just straightforward a true or
false questions.

242
00:09:53,300 --> 00:09:55,700
There was no trickery.
Yeah but this point I was like

243
00:09:55,700 --> 00:09:57,300
expecting tricks.
I wouldn't just give him a

244
00:09:57,308 --> 00:09:59,700
straight answer.
He's getting really like just to

245
00:09:59,700 --> 00:10:03,000
say is true or false.
So next time give you all of

246
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,300
match.
These interesting people at home

247
00:10:04,300 --> 00:10:08,100
can have a garden as well.
So the next one was a true or

248
00:10:08,100 --> 00:10:10,600
false question.
And it was the statement was

249
00:10:11,500 --> 00:10:14,600
women by more Easter eggs than
men, true or false.

250
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,800
Absolutely true.
What's your reasoning?

251
00:10:18,700 --> 00:10:21,900
Because I know for a fact in my
family, my mom's the organized

252
00:10:21,900 --> 00:10:23,400
one who would always go out and
buy them.

253
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,500
Yeah.
Like it in a family that sense

254
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,400
to be fair though I go and buy
them for myself and probably as

255
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,900
much as I see you, every both
are the kind of layers of

256
00:10:30,900 --> 00:10:33,200
reasoning and weeks.
We sort of settled on true

257
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,600
because we did feel like we just
like just jumping on stereo

258
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,100
tires.
We were like, probably more like

259
00:10:37,100 --> 00:10:39,100
The Stereotype though.
It's like an experience isn't

260
00:10:39,100 --> 00:10:40,100
it?
Might want my mum.

261
00:10:40,100 --> 00:10:42,400
So my personal experience is my
mom goes and buys them and I

262
00:10:42,408 --> 00:10:43,400
know that's a.
Yeah, sure.

263
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:44,400
We've all had that experience as
well.

264
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:45,600
And we think come on our mom's
always.

265
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:47,000
Other one's going out of buying
our stuff.

266
00:10:47,100 --> 00:10:49,700
It was false.
We said, true is false,

267
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:50,700
apparently meant.
Yeah.

268
00:10:50,700 --> 00:10:53,500
Men by more Easter eggs and
women and I was like, it does

269
00:10:53,500 --> 00:10:55,800
make sense because I probably in
more Easter eggs than we've

270
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,100
bought for other people.
So, I've all them.

271
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,900
I don't think that that
experience at most so, yeah,

272
00:11:04,900 --> 00:11:06,800
that's got that one wrong.
And then there's one more

273
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,600
question.
So we're one up one down now,

274
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,000
how to get this one, right?
And the last question was and

275
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,800
give again, going to give you
this to see if you can answer

276
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,200
it.
It was A percentage of the

277
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:22,200
population wise which country
buys more Easter eggs, basically

278
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:26,600
the UK or the USA.
I would say the UK.

279
00:11:28,100 --> 00:11:30,300
And it's only because it
obviously is a percentage.

280
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,600
So I don't know this trying to
build a building a trap you to

281
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,600
think this way more Mary.
Yeah, that's what I thought.

282
00:11:35,100 --> 00:11:37,000
Yeah.
So I did the exact exact same

283
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,100
logic.
I'd had no idea and I was like,

284
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,500
clearly, the Trap is USA because
its massive but percentage wise

285
00:11:42,500 --> 00:11:45,300
and I went UK and UK was right?
They, we got that, we got the

286
00:11:45,300 --> 00:11:47,900
crystal for that one.
Yeah, we had a great time.

287
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,100
It customizes was epic.
I know you've done it.

288
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:52,200
I thoroughly enjoyed it as well.
If anyone else is thinking about

289
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,100
doing it, they've got one in
London and they've got one in

290
00:11:54,100 --> 00:11:56,800
Manchester, right?
So I've banged on about my

291
00:11:56,900 --> 00:11:59,800
exhilarating.
Exciting super epic half-term

292
00:12:00,300 --> 00:12:02,200
where I've been doing so many
cool, crazy things.

293
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,500
What have you been up to Dylan?
Absolutely nothing.

294
00:12:04,900 --> 00:12:07,300
Absolute now I'm checking.
Now we had like I said last week

295
00:12:07,300 --> 00:12:13,300
our niece came from America.
So honestly, we spent almost

296
00:12:13,300 --> 00:12:16,200
every waking minute with her,
which is not a bad thing.

297
00:12:16,300 --> 00:12:19,600
It's absolutely brilliant.
Yeah, it's a know, there's just

298
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,100
something about young children
when they're in your family.

299
00:12:23,100 --> 00:12:25,500
It's just so enjoyable, isn't
it?

300
00:12:25,500 --> 00:12:27,200
Just playing with it?
You turn into a different

301
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,200
person.
I had my nails done this week, I

302
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,900
had extensions put in my hair.
If, if a really cute

303
00:12:35,900 --> 00:12:38,600
two-and-a-half-year-old comes up
to you and says, you want to

304
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,800
come play and you you say, yes.
It's as simple as that.

305
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,200
You don't, you don't say no and
whatever they want to play, you

306
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,000
get their huge inflatable
balloons that we talked about

307
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,600
last week.
Went down a storm there.

308
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,500
Was none of this like oh a bit
pensive about it and I'll go and

309
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,000
Play with cardboard box
rabbit's?

310
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,800
No, no, no, no, pony came
everywhere with us.

311
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,600
Yeah.
And every, every half an hour,

312
00:13:00,100 --> 00:13:03,800
you want to ride the pony.
Oh, I don't know.

313
00:13:04,300 --> 00:13:06,200
You ride the pony.
So do you want to ride the pony?

314
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:11,300
Know you ride the pony science
that they're on a pretending to

315
00:13:11,300 --> 00:13:13,200
ride the pony, but she was very,
very happy.

316
00:13:13,500 --> 00:13:16,000
And then she would carry on
playing something else there, I

317
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,200
stepped off the pony.
She'd she'd immediately realized

318
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,100
what, no, get on the pony.
Okay, I'm just used to have the

319
00:13:21,100 --> 00:13:23,700
balloons.
Yeah, they're still there,

320
00:13:23,700 --> 00:13:26,300
they're still being very still
in the picture on Instagram of

321
00:13:26,300 --> 00:13:27,100
them.
I can't run forever.

322
00:13:27,100 --> 00:13:30,800
Show them now, we, well, I have
to go, there's, there's this

323
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,500
other moment where we were
watching the football and it was

324
00:13:33,500 --> 00:13:37,900
Arsenal vs, Liverpool and there
was a penalty, right?

325
00:13:38,300 --> 00:13:40,200
So there's a penalty about to be
taken.

326
00:13:40,900 --> 00:13:43,300
And so then she decides, that's
the moment to go and grab the

327
00:13:43,300 --> 00:13:46,000
pony and start running up to us
and throwing and I face we

328
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:51,300
missed the belly.
But now it was really, it's been

329
00:13:51,300 --> 00:13:55,200
really nice because I've managed
to just avoid work as well,

330
00:13:55,300 --> 00:13:58,400
which is, you know, avoiding
work is really nice whilst

331
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,300
you're doing yet but I can see
myself in the next three or four

332
00:14:01,300 --> 00:14:02,900
days.
When I look at my to do this, to

333
00:14:02,900 --> 00:14:04,400
be like.
I wish maybe I'd done some of

334
00:14:04,408 --> 00:14:07,400
this earlier but equally this
you just got to turn off.

335
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,200
Sometimes it's actually it's
really important.

336
00:14:09,500 --> 00:14:12,200
And in this two-week halftime
the reason why two-week half

337
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,400
times are so good is because you
really can just block out a huge

338
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:16,000
Bitcoin.
You.

339
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,900
And actually just say, okay,
look two or three days of work,

340
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,400
This set this side or that side,
I did a little bit of work at

341
00:14:21,408 --> 00:14:22,600
the start.
I've got a little bit more work

342
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,200
to do at the end, but that's
what it's for and I just don't

343
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,900
want to fall into that trap of
feeling a bit guilty of, or have

344
00:14:27,900 --> 00:14:30,400
I done enough work on my time
off as like, what a statement,

345
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,100
what a statement to say, an
efficient ever would say that

346
00:14:33,100 --> 00:14:34,800
have I done enough work on my
time off site.

347
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,300
No, I think it will get the we
should do a poll about that

348
00:14:37,300 --> 00:14:41,200
because I would put if you put a
poll out there that was like do

349
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,600
you feel guilty if you don't do
a set amount of work, I would be

350
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,900
like yep because I still get
that feeling every time I've

351
00:14:45,900 --> 00:14:48,100
done loads of work this
afternoon and knowingly, I've

352
00:14:48,100 --> 00:14:50,600
just kind of drip Loads of
things are like, and I'm just

353
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,400
like, why what am I doing?
Why have I done this?

354
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,300
Then the rest of it, which I'm
in a different position to you

355
00:14:55,300 --> 00:14:56,200
now, because I've not got much
left.

356
00:14:56,500 --> 00:14:59,000
I'll probably just spend like
half a day or the weekend, maybe

357
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,700
just finishing up B, but yeah,
it is annoying and I did feel

358
00:15:01,700 --> 00:15:02,800
guilty.
I was like, well I better do

359
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,400
something.
I've not done anything for a

360
00:15:04,408 --> 00:15:07,600
day, so I better do something.
Well, the good thing is, we've

361
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:11,500
all rested with recuperated.
We've got back bit of our energy

362
00:15:11,500 --> 00:15:13,300
because I know we are flagging
at the end of last time, only

363
00:15:13,300 --> 00:15:15,300
big time and I'm actually, I'm
ready to hit the ground running

364
00:15:15,300 --> 00:15:16,900
this time and I do feel good
about it.

365
00:15:16,900 --> 00:15:19,000
So we're going to go and move
on.

366
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,000
On now to our next section
because I've got a little

367
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:28,300
surprise for you.
So hater there is a surprise

368
00:15:28,300 --> 00:15:29,600
here.
This is a first on the podcast

369
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,400
because yeah, I have dropped off
a box for you, you've got the

370
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:34,700
mystery box.
Yep, I've got it here.

371
00:15:34,700 --> 00:15:36,200
I want you to grab the mystery
box.

372
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:37,800
Pick it up.
You Hayden's got no idea what's

373
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,000
in this?
Yeah, I've got still be a couple

374
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,300
of our listeners listening right
now who know exactly what's

375
00:15:42,300 --> 00:15:44,300
coming up and there were lots of
them who don't.

376
00:15:44,300 --> 00:15:46,100
So I don't even know what I've
got here.

377
00:15:46,900 --> 00:15:50,100
Gone can open it or not.
Yeah, It's a bit but don't don't

378
00:15:50,100 --> 00:15:53,300
actually open it properly yet.
So under this the box I'm gonna

379
00:15:53,300 --> 00:15:55,600
give you the context.
Is it feel light or heavy?

380
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,300
What you think it might be?
Really light to the point where

381
00:15:57,300 --> 00:15:59,300
I'm like is it is it's just a
joke is nothing.

382
00:15:59,300 --> 00:16:02,800
It is or thing, I don't know.
I feel like I should talk on,

383
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,100
it's probably something raised
in the podcast.

384
00:16:04,100 --> 00:16:06,800
I cannot think about all.
This is, you can you can you

385
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,300
have any idea at all?
What it might be because I

386
00:16:09,300 --> 00:16:11,500
because I have specifically told
Hayden that we have to open this

387
00:16:11,500 --> 00:16:13,200
on the podcast.
So he's right it's to do the

388
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,100
podcast, you know what, my
memory is like Dylan.

389
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,900
I can all see it.
And I will, of course I

390
00:16:17,900 --> 00:16:21,600
genuinely Don't know what this
Joy if you see it, it's never

391
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,200
been mentioned before to you.
It's never been mentioned to

392
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:25,900
you, but it's to do with the
podcast, okay?

393
00:16:25,900 --> 00:16:29,000
I think this is the moment I
want you to you, people who are

394
00:16:29,008 --> 00:16:30,900
just listed, by the way, I'm
sorry that this is going to be

395
00:16:30,900 --> 00:16:32,700
quite a visual thing, but we'll
explain what's going on after

396
00:16:32,700 --> 00:16:34,700
they run the wheels, you'll see
where for ways to make a rules.

397
00:16:34,700 --> 00:16:39,500
Open up, I'm opening now some
look there paper.

398
00:16:39,500 --> 00:16:44,100
Oh yeah.
You know, when either Mike, by

399
00:16:44,100 --> 00:16:45,800
the way, looks like a t-shirt or
something.

400
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:56,500
Oh no way it says under aft.
Oh my God you got this

401
00:16:56,500 --> 00:16:59,800
custom-made.
I didn't even put it in for

402
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:01,800
order.
I got delivered to my house and

403
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,900
asking I've got one as well.
Look I've got one who that is

404
00:17:04,900 --> 00:17:06,200
amazing.
Whoever's done that.

405
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,099
You are a legend.
It literally says on it.

406
00:17:08,300 --> 00:17:10,599
It's like a dictionary
adjectives.

407
00:17:12,099 --> 00:17:17,300
Maybe it means like really
skinny so funny.

408
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,200
Oh man, I am Absolutely, love
that we've got.

409
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,200
We've got one each.
So now we've got some uniform

410
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,400
for our podcast but the story is
my parents dropped off some

411
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,300
Easter eggs for us.
Yeah, and in there out shed at

412
00:17:29,300 --> 00:17:31,600
the back.
They have these, this printing

413
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,100
study to printing for a various
like motorcycle groups and stuff

414
00:17:34,100 --> 00:17:37,400
that there are that they're all
involved in and, and yeah.

415
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,100
So they've made this for us.
They dropped off to me.

416
00:17:40,300 --> 00:17:41,800
I'd know request, I didn't ask
for it.

417
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:43,900
They were just like, oh, it's we
just wanted to give you this and

418
00:17:43,900 --> 00:17:46,400
just surprised me with this
thing that is 10/10.

419
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,400
I'm wearing.
Next time we did a podcast and

420
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,500
Forever After Even when we get
to episode 100, I'm still gonna

421
00:17:51,500 --> 00:17:54,400
be wearing that t-shirt.
Yes, absolutely.

422
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,500
So that's a.
So we got one of them each.

423
00:17:56,500 --> 00:17:59,700
So in the next row, lot of rails
have a uniform.

424
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,700
Oh, that's so good.
So, you know, when people are

425
00:18:02,708 --> 00:18:05,500
listening back to this episode,
when they are on episode 100,

426
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,400
they'll probably be in the merch
store by then, so you can pick

427
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,600
up right underneath teacher.
Well, this, this is an excuse

428
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,900
announcement, Hayden.
We've got a merch store now, we

429
00:18:13,900 --> 00:18:16,300
don't know, know, whether that's
the too much.

430
00:18:16,300 --> 00:18:19,300
We don't, we don't the way too
much effort for the For all the

431
00:18:19,300 --> 00:18:20,800

Listen, again, Sandy, we haven't
talked to him in a while.

How's your eyes and get hop fan?
I've seen it.

435
00:18:29,300 --> 00:18:31,000
I've seen it as a big stack.
Get on with it.

436
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,900
Crack on, stop laughing these
anyway.

437
00:18:33,900 --> 00:18:34,500
Yeah.
Big South.

438
00:18:34,500 --> 00:18:39,100
My parents literally dropped us
off and under the top.

439
00:18:39,100 --> 00:18:41,900
Unbelievable.
Yeah, this is where podcast

440
00:18:41,900 --> 00:18:43,700
doesn't adjust this.
Make sure you tune in to our

441
00:18:43,700 --> 00:18:45,200
rails.
Check us out on Instagram if you

442

Sleep, repeat podcast isn't a

443
00:18:48,208 --> 00:18:50,900
little pod.
Teach sleep, repeat podcast.

444
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,000
Okay, I was confused and our
email is teach sleep.

445
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,800
Repeat pod if you want to send

00:19:00,500 --> 00:19:01,700
And just, you know, just say
hello.

448
00:19:02,300 --> 00:19:03,400
Tell us what you think of the
podcast by.

449
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,100
Let's get into this.
We've been, we've been talking

450
00:19:05,100 --> 00:19:06,700
for a long time now.
So I'm going to we're going to

451
00:19:06,708 --> 00:19:09,500
play the jingle again and we're
going to get into our discussion

452
00:19:09,500 --> 00:19:10,800
which we actually put on our
Instagram.

453
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,400
So the people decide Hayden.
What we talk about let's get

454
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:19,000
going.
Okay, so we put a pull-out on

455
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:20,700
Instagram.
That's the place to be guys

456
00:19:20,700 --> 00:19:22,500
because we like to do Paul's, we
like to get your opinions.

457
00:19:22,500 --> 00:19:26,700
We like to get your stories and
one of the most recent ones we

458
00:19:26,700 --> 00:19:28,900
did was just to give you a
choice to talk.

459
00:19:28,900 --> 00:19:30,600
We talked about in the pot
because we are lots of ideas but

460
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,100
sometimes we just don't know
which one to go for and this

461
00:19:33,100 --> 00:19:35,200
week, you have voted for us to
talk about homework.

462
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:36,700
So we're going to get into a bit
of a debate here.

463
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,400
Well, more of a discussion I
suppose because actually between

464
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,800
Ada and I we haven't really
spoken about this much together

465
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,100
and explore each other's ideas.
So this would be really

466
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,100
arresting for us and hopefully
you guys can get in touch and

467
00:19:47,100 --> 00:19:50,400
let us know exactly what you
think about the idea of

468
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,100
homework, especially in primary
school.

469
00:19:53,500 --> 00:19:56,900
So, we know homeworks, a huge
thing as children get older as

470
00:19:56,900 --> 00:19:59,600
they become more, independent
learners, but I'm just going to

471
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,000
ask you straight out Paden.
Do you think primary school

472
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,400
should set homework?
Two children.

473
00:20:04,100 --> 00:20:08,700
Oh, what a loaded question?
I was even an even then I was

474
00:20:08,700 --> 00:20:11,200
just thinking about this whole
situation and what's the best

475
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:17,400
way to explain it like my core?
Teacher honestly says no like

476
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,000
overall.
It's like an overall.

477
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,400
No, but it's not just a simple
as like a blanket.

478
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,700
No.
Because I think there are plenty

479
00:20:24,700 --> 00:20:28,200
of Children and Families who
greatly appreciate homework, and

480
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:32,100
it goes a long way for that.
Child, that child will actually

481
00:20:32,100 --> 00:20:34,900
enjoy doing the homework because
they really, really want to

482
00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:37,600
develop, you know, certain
knowledge or whatever.

483
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:42,600
But I also think the majority of
children It's not actually it's

484
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:43,900
not a positive experience at
all.

485
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:49,600
I think the cons outweigh the
pros for most children.

486
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:51,900
That's kind of my instant gut
feeling.

487
00:20:51,900 --> 00:20:53,200
Maybe I can go into more detail
in a minute.

488
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,900
I don't know what wash wash your
thoughts on it.

489
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:01,500
I'm actually quite happy because
we certainly aren't as closely

490
00:21:01,500 --> 00:21:03,000
aligned as we normally are on
this topic.

491
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:03,800
Okay.
Okay.

492
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,200
Because again, there's nuances
and this is the problem with

493
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,000
polarized debate.
Always in everything.

494
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,600
Isn't it where you have to pick
a side?

495
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,600
And if I had to pick a side, I
would say that we should set

496
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,000
homework, right?
Okay.

497
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,500
Because I did ask it in a
specific way as well which might

498
00:21:17,500 --> 00:21:21,200
draw out more of a conversation
in terms of should schools set

499
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:22,900
homework.
I think it's a very different

500
00:21:22,900 --> 00:21:26,400
conversation to should schools
punish children for not doing

501
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,500
homework.
A should schools have certain

502
00:21:28,500 --> 00:21:31,000
expectations for homework, etc,
etc.

503
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,600
I think scores we absolutely
need to set homework.

504
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:38,600
The Sip, the simple reason is
there are a lot of things that

505
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,100
we, as teachers can deliver in
an hour-long lesson.

506
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,400
In a discrete lesson.
Where, for example, in maths, we

507
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,100
might teach them over a couple
of days, how to do short

508
00:21:47,100 --> 00:21:50,900
multiplication, how to find a
fraction of that amount right.

509
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,300
For example, or in history, we
might we might teach them.

510
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,200
Look at some sources primary
sources, secondary sources about

511
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,100
certain invasions of Britain,
Etc.

512
00:21:59,500 --> 00:22:01,800
I think we can teach them that
really well, and to seek the in

513
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:06,500
an hour or an hour and a half.
I think the biggest problem that

514
00:22:06,500 --> 00:22:09,000
we have with other types of
learning as we can't do that.

515
00:22:09,100 --> 00:22:11,500
For example, things that come to
my head straight away, Of times

516
00:22:11,500 --> 00:22:13,100
tables.
We can't just teach times

517
00:22:13,100 --> 00:22:16,000
tables, we can't teach children
how to memorize their times

518
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,300
tables.
In an hour-long lesson, we can

519
00:22:18,300 --> 00:22:20,700
do times table lessons, where we
practice and teach techniques.

520
00:22:20,700 --> 00:22:23,600
But you have to practice them,
constantly has to be like a drip

521
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,800
fed thing and we don't have that
ability as teachers to do that

522
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,200
constantly.
And also reading, you know,

523
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,300
we're teaching lessons actually,
the act of just reading out loud

524
00:22:32,300 --> 00:22:35,800
with 32 children in our class,
that's impossible for us to

525
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,600
listen to the children.
Read as much as is required, so

526
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,800
there has to be a level of
expectation.

527
00:22:41,300 --> 00:22:44,500
And or maybe the word is
recommendation and this is where

528
00:22:44,500 --> 00:22:47,000
it gets tricky because there'll
be lots of people say no, no,

529
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,100
this should be an expectation,
you absolutely have to do this

530
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,000
in the same way that you
absolutely have to come to

531
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,500
school and you absolutely have
to have the curriculum talk to

532
00:22:54,500 --> 00:22:55,800
you.
We say that.

533
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,200
And some people extrapolate that
to homework and say no no, you

534
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,900
have to do this, you have to
read this, you have to do that.

535
00:23:01,900 --> 00:23:04,400
There's this is where I kind of
sway to the other side because

536
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:08,700
I'm not comfortable, always as a
professional telling people what

537
00:23:08,700 --> 00:23:12,100
they have to do at home and so
certain children might have

538
00:23:12,100 --> 00:23:15,100
certain barriers or it might be
a real slog for some parents to

539
00:23:15,100 --> 00:23:18,700
get some children to do certain
things, for whatever reason, but

540
00:23:18,700 --> 00:23:21,800
I think we could, we can set
really clear expectations and

541
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,000
really clear reasons why
something should happen and

542
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,300
facilitate that and give give
options for that to happen.

543
00:23:28,300 --> 00:23:31,400
For example, at home times table
rock stars get a subscription

544
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,300
for the children.
Have a huge library with access

545
00:23:34,300 --> 00:23:36,500
to lots of different books that
are at the appropriate level.

546
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,600
I think as schools we need to
facilitate that but there is

547
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,600
this just Middle Ground.
Break ground where there's

548
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:44,700
actually a lot of disagreement
in education, isn't there?

549
00:23:44,700 --> 00:23:48,400
Yeah, I think until you said
reading and times tables, I

550
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,500
think I was kind of
streamlining, my idea of

551
00:23:51,500 --> 00:23:55,700
homework to the stuff beyond
that, like extra, like

552
00:23:55,700 --> 00:23:58,900
worksheets or like workbooks,
and things that sometimes

553
00:23:58,900 --> 00:24:01,100
schools will set.
Because now you said that I'm

554
00:24:01,100 --> 00:24:03,200
sort of, I'm not necessarily
changing my opinion, but I'm

555
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:04,600
just adding more to it like an
F.

556
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,400
Another layer, of thought, layer
of thought because, yeah,

557
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,900
reading I'm sort of like,
actually, I do expect that to be

558
00:24:09,900 --> 00:24:12,300
done.
I genuinely do Do expect reading

559
00:24:12,300 --> 00:24:15,400
to be done because the
correlation of the studies show

560
00:24:15,900 --> 00:24:18,500
that the correlation between
reading and general academic

561
00:24:18,500 --> 00:24:21,400
achievement is undeniable like
undeniable.

562
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:25,100
It's so so well correlated.
So it's like yeah, of course you

563
00:24:25,108 --> 00:24:28,000
need to read with your child as
much as possible and times.

564
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,300
Tables is again, you're right,
you know, it would be a really

565
00:24:31,300 --> 00:24:33,600
big waste of time if we spent
all that time at school doing

566
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,100
it.
So yeah, you kind of do need to

567
00:24:35,100 --> 00:24:37,600
practice them at home because
they have sort of a fundamental

568
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,500
foundation for a lot of areas of
mass.

569
00:24:41,300 --> 00:24:43,600
Yeah, you do need to learn them
but I think that's where it

570
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,200
stops me but perhaps and maybe
I'm just of in the middle

571
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,600
because after that I just don't
think we need to set any more

572
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:50,800
homework.
I don't think we should.

573
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,300
I'm sort of act.
I actively encourage not setting

574
00:24:53,500 --> 00:24:56,400
any more homework than the those
to sort of really essential

575
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,700
foundations.
And I think Mike the core

576
00:24:58,700 --> 00:25:00,800
reasoning for that is because I
think schools, long enough

577
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,600
already, I think there is a,
there should be a limit to how

578
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:09,300
much time children spend of
their life learning and doing,

579
00:25:09,300 --> 00:25:13,000
you know, education and and I
feel like we're already at that

580
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,900
limit, you know, there's a, we
spent the children spend so much

581
00:25:15,900 --> 00:25:20,000
of their life in education, they
need down time.

582
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,200
They need to go and have fun
explore the world to go and do

583
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,100
whatever they like, doing their
hobbies and things like that.

584
00:25:25,100 --> 00:25:28,400
I think that's so important.
So, the big, big Convoy homework

585
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,800
for me, you know, homework, that
was beyond those kind of the

586
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,800
reading and the times tables is
it takes away from that time and

587
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,100
the majority of children are
certainly from my experience, do

588
00:25:37,100 --> 00:25:39,800
not want to do that.
They resent it, they end up then

589
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,600
disliking School, Because oh
it's that.

590
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,600
It's that annoying place that
makes me stop playing with my

591
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,500
friends outside or going on my
Xbox or do whatever they want to

592
00:25:48,500 --> 00:25:51,500
do in their free time.
I hate school now because they

593
00:25:51,508 --> 00:25:53,100
make me do this homework and
then when I don't do it, I'll

594
00:25:53,100 --> 00:25:56,200
get in trouble.
Which I like you said, open up a

595
00:25:56,208 --> 00:25:59,900
hole, opens up a whole nother
conversation of should children

596
00:25:59,900 --> 00:26:04,600
be punished or in trouble, to
any capacity for not completing

597
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:05,900
homework.
Let's think of like a

598
00:26:05,900 --> 00:26:09,000
seven-year-old.
For example, wash wash your

599
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:09,800
feet.
I can ask you a question.

600
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,200
Now, you're there, say you're in
year 3 classroom, right?

601
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,400
You got a seven-year-old and you
set them.

602
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:18,700
Let's start it.
Start here.

603
00:26:18,700 --> 00:26:20,700
Let's start with reading and
times tables so you haven't set

604
00:26:20,700 --> 00:26:23,100
them anything additional.
You've asked them to read three

605
00:26:23,100 --> 00:26:25,400
times a week.
Let's say, Ten minutes of time,

606
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,500
minimum and you've asked them to
spend 10 minutes.

607
00:26:28,500 --> 00:26:31,100
Practicing their times tables
and they come into school next

608
00:26:31,100 --> 00:26:34,700
week, they haven't done it.
What do you think you do?

609
00:26:34,700 --> 00:26:37,200
And also, what do you think?
The kind of General consensus is

610
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,700
what how we should approach that
situation, as educational staff.

611
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,200
So, the first, the first
question I always ask myself, is

612
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,000
why we setting homework.
That's the first question when

613
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:48,900
I'm trying to reason what to do,
right?

614
00:26:49,300 --> 00:26:53,200
And in this situation, we are
setting kind of like a minimum

615
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,000
expectation, right?
Of.

616
00:26:55,100 --> 00:26:57,000
I don't think there's a single
school who doesn't expect

617
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,900
children to read it home and
then the times tables.

618
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,000
So with the context of it's the
minimum expectation.

619
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,900
Why are we why we setting this?
It's for their academic

620
00:27:04,900 --> 00:27:07,300
achievement.
Okay, that's the reason why?

621
00:27:07,500 --> 00:27:10,600
Because we know it's proven that
if they practice these things,

622
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,500
they will have a boost
academically, which is our goal

623
00:27:13,500 --> 00:27:15,000
was teachers, one of our main
goals.

624
00:27:15,900 --> 00:27:20,700
So, my opinion and that is you
the end goal has to be to find

625
00:27:20,700 --> 00:27:22,900
time for the children to do
those things.

626
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:28,000
Okay, I did not want to
characterize it as punishment.

627
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,100
That's what I would have wild
really avoid.

628
00:27:30,100 --> 00:27:34,100
Because truthfully, how much
control did that seven-year-old?

629
00:27:34,100 --> 00:27:36,500
Have in doing their homework or
not at home?

630
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:38,800
I don't know.
And we'll never truly know.

631
00:27:38,900 --> 00:27:39,500
Yeah.
Okay.

632
00:27:39,700 --> 00:27:42,100
We don't know whether it was
because the parents said, oh,

633
00:27:42,100 --> 00:27:45,000
you don't have to do that.
Don't worry about it or maybe

634
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,100
the parents have battled
massively to try and get them to

635
00:27:47,100 --> 00:27:48,300
do it.
And it was a huge thing and it

636
00:27:48,300 --> 00:27:51,200
ruined family weekend because
the child just did want to do

637
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:52,300
it.
I don't know.

638
00:27:52,300 --> 00:27:53,800
And honestly that's irrelevant
to me.

639
00:27:54,500 --> 00:27:58,300
Because, actually, I want them
to do 30 minutes of reading the

640
00:27:58,300 --> 00:28:00,600
week minimum and I want them to
do 10 minutes or times

641
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,300
hairdresser practice all week
minimum.

642
00:28:02,500 --> 00:28:05,400
So my thought there is cool.
I'm going to facilitate that

643
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:06,600
time somewhere in the school
day.

644
00:28:07,300 --> 00:28:10,200
Now this is where the gray area
comes in because there's no time

645
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,100
in the school day.
So when do you do that?

646
00:28:12,100 --> 00:28:14,700
Do you do 10 minutes at lunch
time when they can be out,

647
00:28:14,700 --> 00:28:15,900
plague playing on the
playground?

648
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,000
Do you determine?
It's an assembly time when they

649
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,300
when you actually might want to
be doing something else and

650
00:28:20,300 --> 00:28:23,300
another intervention group that
you've got the or do you do in

651
00:28:23,300 --> 00:28:25,500
the morning before?
In, you know, in that free time

652
00:28:25,500 --> 00:28:27,700
maybe where they come in and do
some reading, actually, you're

653
00:28:27,700 --> 00:28:29,800
going to go and listen to them
actively read at that point

654
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,400
because we do have reading
built-in at school, don't we?

655
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,900
Yeah.
But the overall thing I'll say

656
00:28:35,500 --> 00:28:38,200
for that is I think you have to
go back to why you're setting

657
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,400
homework.
I don't think we're the seven,

658
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,400
eight, nine year old or Primary
School in general.

659
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,600
We're not setting homework to
teach responsibility as much

660
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,200
yet.
We're setting these foundations

661
00:28:48,500 --> 00:28:50,500
because they're critical to
their education.

662
00:28:50,500 --> 00:28:52,300
So I think you have to find the
time to fill that in.

663
00:28:52,500 --> 00:28:54,900
I wanted to come on a point that
you just said, A minute ago

664
00:28:55,100 --> 00:28:58,900
because I'm interested to see if
you would stick with what you

665
00:28:58,900 --> 00:29:02,000
said, or maybe re-define what
you said.

666
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,000
Because it was really
interesting to me about how

667
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,500
you're saying we're kind of
maxed out on the child's

668
00:29:06,500 --> 00:29:08,700
education.
Like, in terms of the amount of

669
00:29:08,708 --> 00:29:10,900
time they spend in school and
it's taken away from their other

670
00:29:10,900 --> 00:29:13,700
stuff.
But I would just add to that.

671
00:29:13,700 --> 00:29:17,700
Maybe like extrapolate, see what
you think is actually, we're not

672
00:29:17,700 --> 00:29:19,900
because children are always
learning, they're always been

673
00:29:19,900 --> 00:29:23,100
educated, right?
If they're on a nature walk, for

674
00:29:23,100 --> 00:29:27,100
example, on a Afternoon.
Yeah, and the mum goes, oh my

675
00:29:27,100 --> 00:29:28,800
goodness.
Homeworks due tomorrow.

676
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,200
We haven't done that time.
Stable practice, that we said we

677
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:34,000
do.
Yeah, it is cutting short that

678
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,600
nature walk which the child
might love.

679
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:37,500
Like you said, you loved going
outside last week doing some

680
00:29:37,500 --> 00:29:41,000
drawings learning about birds.
The different different fauna

681
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,800
that they can see.
And having that kind of

682
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,600
enrichment, is still education.
I don't think there is a limit

683
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,100
for Education.
Yeah, and I'm sure that's what

684
00:29:47,100 --> 00:29:50,100
you meant, but you can clarify
in a second but there's no limit

685
00:29:50,100 --> 00:29:52,200
on education.
But I think maybe what we can

686
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,800
clarify is a bit that, you know,
I don't think we need to intrude

687
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,400
so much on that home life, and
that home experience.

688
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:00,900
And they've got dance class that
evening or they've got this.

689
00:30:00,900 --> 00:30:04,000
And if it comes to the detriment
of that, then it starts becoming

690
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,100
a problem.
I think I.

691
00:30:05,100 --> 00:30:07,500
Yeah, for us to redefine it.
I'm talking about prescribed,

692
00:30:07,500 --> 00:30:12,000
learning management, education,
mandatory academic studies.

693
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,600
You know, I mean, maths English
topic.

694
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,300
Those things I think, you know,
the children to have a choice.

695
00:30:17,300 --> 00:30:20,100
They that if they enjoy or not a
nature walk they're probably you

696
00:30:20,100 --> 00:30:22,500
know they're going to nature
walk and learning, they probably

697
00:30:22,500 --> 00:30:23,900
enjoying it and it's passive
learning.

698
00:30:24,300 --> 00:30:25,400
Yeah, sitting down doing the
times.

699
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:29,100
Tables is not passive learning,
it's active prescribed work to

700
00:30:29,100 --> 00:30:30,600
do is I guess.
Yeah that's that's probably

701
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,700
quite important to redefine that
I think what what links into

702
00:30:33,700 --> 00:30:36,400
that really nicely and maybe we
could talk about this is

703
00:30:36,900 --> 00:30:40,200
actually also, is there a
problem with the school

704
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,500
celebrating and giving options
for further homework given the

705
00:30:43,500 --> 00:30:45,600
choice?
And I don't think there is and I

706
00:30:45,608 --> 00:30:47,700
think about those projects we
talked about that, we did it.

707
00:30:47,700 --> 00:30:49,800
When we were primary school
children, we talked about last

708
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,700
time in our Primary School
memories that we loved and

709
00:30:52,700 --> 00:30:56,100
there's certain for Zamp alive.
I know in every school I've

710
00:30:56,100 --> 00:31:00,000
worked in there's always been
termly or monthly or projects

711
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:01,700
that the child has freedom to
do.

712
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,900
There's no expectation to do it.
They can take it as far as they

713
00:31:04,900 --> 00:31:07,400
want, but they bring it in at
the end and then they show it to

714
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,400
the class.
And I think that's fantastic as

715
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,300
well because I think it's what
we can do.

716
00:31:12,300 --> 00:31:15,900
As a school is facilitate and
advise on minimum expectations

717
00:31:15,900 --> 00:31:19,200
for an academic point of view.
But also why not celebrate

718
00:31:19,500 --> 00:31:21,700
someone going above and beyond
in a different aspect?

719
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,500
Yeah, I guess you just have to
be really careful not to Any

720
00:31:24,500 --> 00:31:27,900
kind of like passive aggression
or petrol, like, making children

721
00:31:28,500 --> 00:31:31,600
that haven't done that thing
actually feel like bad like

722
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,200
worse, you know?
I mean, it has to stick as a

723
00:31:34,208 --> 00:31:37,100
positive reinforcement thing.
I've like, wow, these children

724
00:31:37,100 --> 00:31:38,600
doing great and you could get
there as well.

725
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:39,700
And that would be awesome as
well.

726
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,600
Rather than like these children
doing great look.

727
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,500
How terrible you are with
showing you this because you're

728
00:31:43,500 --> 00:31:45,000
so bad and you need to be like
this.

729
00:31:45,300 --> 00:31:47,100
It's not good enough but I think
there's those you have to be

730
00:31:47,100 --> 00:31:49,000
really careful.
I think with that sort of system

731
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:53,900
not to do that as you just a
personal question like with in

732
00:31:53,900 --> 00:31:56,600
your Teaching career.
Have you ever got cross at

733
00:31:56,600 --> 00:32:02,400
someone for not doing the
homework, only only when we've

734
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,800
had a very specific conversation
and they promised me that they

735
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,200
do something, right, right.
And they're not even, you know,

736
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:14,300
not even cross honest.
Truly as a teacher and whether,

737
00:32:14,300 --> 00:32:16,500
you know, whether you have to
separate yourself.

738
00:32:17,100 --> 00:32:19,800
And just think my goal for you
is that you are doing this

739
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:23,200
homework, because I want you to
progress the times tables are

740
00:32:23,208 --> 00:32:25,700
tailored to exactly.
Need the readings, exactly your

741
00:32:25,700 --> 00:32:27,100
level.
And I know if you do this, that

742
00:32:27,100 --> 00:32:29,900
you'll progress.
So when you say Cross or maybe

743
00:32:29,900 --> 00:32:32,300
I'll get frustrated and think,
oh, if you just, if you just

744
00:32:32,300 --> 00:32:35,300
would do this more often, I
think it would help you.

745
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,500
Like, you know, I want to help
you like, let's just, let's do

746
00:32:37,500 --> 00:32:40,100
this.
I think the only time I've ever

747
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,500
and, of course, you'll say to
the children, how much really

748
00:32:43,500 --> 00:32:45,000
important.
And I'd really like you to do

749
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,700
this and the fact you haven't
done this, it does frustrate me

750
00:32:48,700 --> 00:32:51,500
because you said to me last week
that you would definitely do it

751
00:32:51,500 --> 00:32:54,700
this week and I believed you and
and then you haven't done it.

752
00:32:54,700 --> 00:32:57,500
And I'm just wondering why
maybe, and then you can kind of

753
00:32:57,508 --> 00:33:00,200
go from there and I think that's
completely legitimate because

754
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:02,700
that's almost a different level
of, you know, giving someone

755
00:33:02,700 --> 00:33:04,900
your word and just teaching them
that that's quite important

756
00:33:04,900 --> 00:33:09,400
things to try and uphold.
But in terms of, when you look

757
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,800
at Homework not being done and
you what you normally see as a

758
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,900
teacher is patterns, you see
patterns of homework, not being

759
00:33:15,900 --> 00:33:17,800
done.
It's not as if every week

760
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,800
there's three different people
who haven't done the homework.

761
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:21,700
Yeah, you're always going to get
children who are in that

762
00:33:21,700 --> 00:33:24,000
routine, and always did our
homework because they love it.

763
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:25,800
Maybe a naked and take
themselves off and do it

764
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:27,500
themselves.
You're always going to get the

765
00:33:27,500 --> 00:33:31,300
other children who may be put up
a battle or don't have as much

766
00:33:31,300 --> 00:33:34,600
support in terms of, you know, a
parental figure saying we have

767
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,200
to do this and forcing it.
It, you see a pattern.

768
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,900
So actually, what's the point of
getting angry at children who

769
00:33:39,900 --> 00:33:42,300
are in that pattern?
It's been two and a half years.

770
00:33:42,500 --> 00:33:44,400
They're not going to suddenly
start if you have a go at them.

771
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,300
Yeah, so yeah, it's all about
what you trying to get out of it

772
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,200
and trying to get the children
to do this thing because it

773
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,400
makes progress and it helps them
academically, that's the end of

774
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:54,900
it.
So, what I'm going to do is a

775
00:33:54,900 --> 00:33:58,700
teacher is thankful for everyone
who does it home and big them up

776
00:33:58,700 --> 00:34:01,200
and say Well done.
But then facilitate as much as

777
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,400
possible, the children who
aren't doing it a chance to do

778
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,600
it because I don't want them to
do homework.

779
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,900
So I can shout a moment them.
I want them to do homework so

780
00:34:07,900 --> 00:34:09,100
that they make progress
progress.

781
00:34:09,100 --> 00:34:09,900
Yeah.
That's absolutely right.

782
00:34:09,900 --> 00:34:13,199
I think there's a kind of maybe
I subliminally.

783
00:34:13,199 --> 00:34:14,900
Think this by.
I'm trying to bring it to the

784
00:34:14,900 --> 00:34:18,100
Forefront of my mind right now
but I think in any given

785
00:34:18,100 --> 00:34:20,300
situation like you said there's
so many different situations in

786
00:34:20,300 --> 00:34:22,100
which child may or may not have
done homework, right?

787
00:34:22,100 --> 00:34:24,800
So many different situations
very unique to each Each person

788
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:29,800
if there is going to be a net
loss in their enjoyment for

789
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:33,100
educational school, in what
you're about to do or say to

790
00:34:33,100 --> 00:34:35,600
them, don't do it.
I think that's the generally,

791
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,400
how I approach it, you know,
their Arch.

792
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:40,600
I will purchase so differently.
If I, you know, I've had a few

793
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,000
grounding experiences over the
years, for example, I can think

794
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:44,699
of one.
It's happened a few times, it's

795
00:34:44,699 --> 00:34:47,100
probably something people can
relate to because, you know,

796
00:34:47,100 --> 00:34:49,800
over the years it's just a bit
of a stereotype that sometimes

797
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,400
children fall into.
So I've taught the classic

798
00:34:54,100 --> 00:34:57,800
Child, who is actually quite
quite bright quite intelligent

799
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,700
and will, you know, Ace tests
and things like that.

800
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:06,600
But never ever, ever has I read
a record signed but I know they

801
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,500
read Because when it comes quite
reading time that, you know,

802
00:35:08,500 --> 00:35:10,600
beer in the book, every now and
then I'll Monitor and be like,

803
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:11,300
okay, they're on a different
book.

804
00:35:11,300 --> 00:35:13,300
Now there are different, but
again, so they clearly reading

805
00:35:13,700 --> 00:35:15,100
but they never get their reading
records.

806
00:35:15,100 --> 00:35:17,400
Signed a reading records are
really classic thing in primary

807
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,900
schools, like most schools do
use some sort of reading record,

808
00:35:19,900 --> 00:35:24,500
whether it's paper or digital
and, you know, the guy Of pot.

809
00:35:24,500 --> 00:35:26,600
The policy of the school will
be, all you need to read a

810
00:35:26,607 --> 00:35:28,200
record sign.
A set amount of time to prove

811
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,000
that you've done the minimum
amount of homework.

812
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,300
And if you don't there might be
some sort of punishment or like

813
00:35:32,300 --> 00:35:34,700
you said, there might be a more
positive reinforcement kind of

814
00:35:34,700 --> 00:35:38,200
just facilitating of time to do
it, but I just remember just one

815
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:41,800
time, you know, I was just going
down that sort of robot root of.

816
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,600
This is the rules.
You must do the rules and and

817
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,600
ideas or banded, two children
together and it wasn't until I

818
00:35:47,607 --> 00:35:50,200
put them together.
Look that situations whereas

819
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,700
realize they're completely
completely separate.

820
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,800
Neither of them, had their
reading record, Signed one of

821
00:35:54,808 --> 00:35:56,700
them reads all the time, their
parent, just never signs.

822
00:35:56,700 --> 00:35:59,200
It just never signs it.
And I was like, you know what,

823
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,300
that is not your fault.
How is that the fault of the

824
00:36:01,308 --> 00:36:03,800
child?
They're reading their book that,

825
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,500
you know, whatever.
I'm not going to delve into

826
00:36:05,500 --> 00:36:08,100
their home life.
I was just happy and I left them

827
00:36:08,100 --> 00:36:10,000
alone for the rest of the day.
I like hope you're reading,

828
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,200
you're making progress at
school, not going to bother you

829
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,800
and then there's the other child
who, you know, who might lie

830
00:36:14,900 --> 00:36:16,800
every single week.
I couldn't read this week's.

831
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,800
I had a football match on.
It's like really.

832
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,300
It's 10 minutes left and I
couldn't do that on my parents

833
00:36:21,300 --> 00:36:23,500
said that I wasn't allowed to
say, well no, you're just making

834
00:36:23,500 --> 00:36:25,300
it up by now.
As I spoke to parent last week

835
00:36:25,300 --> 00:36:27,800
and they said, you know, you had
a big party and he wouldn't do

836
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,300
it.
So you got those two completely

837
00:36:29,300 --> 00:36:32,400
different children and it really
grounded me because it made me

838
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,600
not just jump into, this is
rules.

839
00:36:34,700 --> 00:36:37,300
You have broken the rules.
Now you're in trouble, that

840
00:36:37,300 --> 00:36:39,000
wouldn't have been fair.
I don't think for the first

841
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,500
child know it and and it goes
back to what we said.

842
00:36:41,500 --> 00:36:43,600
Right.
Why do we set homework?

843
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,600
I think if you ask yourself that
question every single time

844
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,800
you're about to deal with
something like this, I think it

845
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,600
will help you in what you then
do as a reaction because the

846
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,900
reason we set homework is so
that children Get this extra

847
00:36:54,900 --> 00:36:57,800
basic help of something which is
better off being drip fed over

848
00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:58,400
time.
Yeah.

849
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:01,400
Even even down to something like
there are certain objectives in

850
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:05,000
the curriculum which I think are
suited to be being taught at

851
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,500
home, right?
Not just the basics you know,

852
00:37:07,500 --> 00:37:10,200
times tables and reading which
are so obvious things like

853
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,000
telling the time.
Yeah, I think that telling the

854
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:17,300
time on an analog clock is
something which has way more

855
00:37:17,300 --> 00:37:21,100
power in being taught constantly
constantly constantly through

856
00:37:21,100 --> 00:37:22,600
today.
Are what time is it?

857
00:37:22,700 --> 00:37:25,200
You know, if you're doing Aussie
kid, a quarter past.

858
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,000
What's the time now?
Oh, it's quarter past, what do

859
00:37:27,008 --> 00:37:29,300
you think it might be?
If it's there, you know, that

860
00:37:29,300 --> 00:37:33,400
kind of, that kind of learning
it fits the drip feed method,

861
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,400
the constant method times table.
Certainly does reading certainly

862
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,600
does and they'll be some things
on the curriculum where I'm

863
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:40,300
stood, there delivering an
hour-long lesson.

864
00:37:40,700 --> 00:37:42,700
There's no way you can teach
your child, how to read a clock

865
00:37:42,700 --> 00:37:44,200
in one-hour.
It's absolutely impossible

866
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,600
because what we'll see as well
is you no matter what class you

867
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:51,000
have, there will be the biggest
range of ability ever when you

868
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,100
come to teach that lesson
because some children might have

869
00:37:53,100 --> 00:37:55,200
been bought at watch from There
were five years old and just

870
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,700
happen to have picked up some
children, only ever go in their

871
00:37:57,700 --> 00:38:00,300
iPad and they say digital clock.
Never got no idea what the hands

872
00:38:00,300 --> 00:38:01,700
mean because it's just not been
taught.

873
00:38:01,900 --> 00:38:05,600
That's, that is an example there
of, actually, what do we want

874
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,600
for the children, we want them
to progress, academically and

875
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:12,000
learn things.
What's the best way of that

876
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,800
happening?
While 4-times tables are

877
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:15,500
reading?
It certainly is doing at home

878
00:38:15,500 --> 00:38:18,400
constantly as much as possible.
There's a discussion to have

879
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,400
like there's other things that
are more beneficial to be taught

880
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,200
at home.
Yeah, another one I can think of

881
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:27,300
is measurement in context.
So things like money, but also

882
00:38:27,300 --> 00:38:29,600
things like just distances and
wait and things.

883
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,500
I feel like they lend themselves
so much to just real life

884
00:38:32,500 --> 00:38:35,100
examples, rather than reading
the map of a book or reading a

885
00:38:35,107 --> 00:38:37,300
definition of how long, how long
a kilometer is.

886
00:38:37,700 --> 00:38:39,300
It's like, yeah.
What does that mean?

887
00:38:39,300 --> 00:38:41,300
Sure, can't cook can't conceive
that.

888
00:38:42,100 --> 00:38:45,100
But if you go on a drive or a
walk, you can show them your

889
00:38:45,100 --> 00:38:46,000
car.
You know.

890
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,500
It tips over even on the mile.
Yeah.

891
00:38:47,500 --> 00:38:51,600
But oh look, this is five miles.
We've driven five miles.

892
00:38:51,700 --> 00:38:52,900
That's very different to
yesterday.

893
00:38:52,900 --> 00:38:53,900
Isn't it?
Where we drove one?

894
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,600
While and they can kind of start
building up those things.

895
00:38:56,700 --> 00:38:58,800
I think it's because it's really
interesting because we've talked

896
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:00,200
about it, haven't we?
And obviously, in our position

897
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:04,700
as leading maths in a school,
we've talked about this before,

898
00:39:04,700 --> 00:39:07,100
and we just thought, okay, well,
how can we address this with our

899
00:39:07,100 --> 00:39:09,200
view of homework, which is
obviously, I'm sure you picked

900
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,100
up of almost skepticism of
trying to push it too far.

901
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,100
We don't want to do that.
But actually, you know, how can

902
00:39:15,100 --> 00:39:19,900
we as school lead like as as
academic as teachers.

903
00:39:19,900 --> 00:39:23,500
Sorry, how can we facilitate it?
I think that's really key for me

904
00:39:23,500 --> 00:39:26,400
personally.
But, you know, facilitating this

905
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:30,800
learning should someone want to
take out with them at home and,

906
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,900
you know, giving giving options
for little projects giving

907
00:39:33,900 --> 00:39:35,800
options.
For, you know, down that except

908
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:37,600
for measurement is perfect for
baking.

909
00:39:37,900 --> 00:39:40,500
Just sending a letter home, you
know and saying, oh, why don't

910
00:39:40,500 --> 00:39:43,200
you try this out this time?
If you want to give them a cheap

911
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,400
option, given an option that
might cost a bit more money, but

912
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:47,800
maybe the parents want to try
that out.

913
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:53,400
And just being inclusive giving
expert advice, but not piling

914
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:54,300
the pressure.
Iran.

915
00:39:54,300 --> 00:39:56,100
Yeah, because I just think it's
counterproductive.

916
00:39:56,100 --> 00:39:57,700
Yeah, I agree.
I think sending out five

917
00:39:57,700 --> 00:40:00,500
worksheets across the term that
raw like word problems.

918
00:40:00,500 --> 00:40:04,800
With measurements in them is
objectively worse than sending

919
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,400
out a little project and being
like, hey, go, I'll optional

920
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:08,800
project to do at home.
Here's that.

921
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,000
Here's an ingredients list here.
So, you know, a couple of

922
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,800
recipes you could do and can,
you know, if you want to

923
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,800
facilitate this learning
experience for child, L

924
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,700
understood by the end of it,
they'll understand these things.

925
00:40:18,700 --> 00:40:22,100
You know, I do agree.
There's more fun ways to

926
00:40:22,100 --> 00:40:23,900
approach, that sort of stuff,
because I've heard of schools,

927
00:40:24,700 --> 00:40:26,700
Like primary schools, which I
always find hard to believe.

928
00:40:26,700 --> 00:40:29,500
I've heard of so many primary
schools in our country that

929
00:40:29,500 --> 00:40:32,200
genuinely set homework.
Like two, three, four or five

930
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:35,100
times a week.
And I'm talking worksheets like

931
00:40:35,100 --> 00:40:38,000
it typically, maths is the one
that will go home and be like a

932
00:40:38,300 --> 00:40:40,100
mass worksheet, very Less in the
goes home.

933
00:40:40,100 --> 00:40:43,400
It's like five questions to do
at home based on the learning

934
00:40:44,100 --> 00:40:47,600
and I just I just yeah I just
think that's so much and for

935
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:49,700
some children are loved it and
ironically they'll probably be

936
00:40:49,700 --> 00:40:50,700
the ones that are higher
Achievers.

937
00:40:50,700 --> 00:40:53,300
Anyway and the children that
really really struggle with

938
00:40:53,300 --> 00:40:55,000
mass.
Well, hey, Every single minute

939
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,400
of that majority of them, some
parents were really supportive

940
00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,000
and they're below.
Thank you, because I can help my

941
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,700
kids really behind a mass.
And this will help me, but I do

942
00:41:01,700 --> 00:41:03,300
think the majority.
I just not going to be in that

943
00:41:03,300 --> 00:41:06,400
situation.
It's almost as local what you

944
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,000
always say.
And it's such a cop-out but

945
00:41:09,100 --> 00:41:11,100
hopefully having listened to our
conversation about it.

946
00:41:11,100 --> 00:41:15,100
People understand what we mean
when we say there is no one

947
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,000
answer.
As always you know, every single

948
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,800
situation is different and I
think that's why I feel like

949
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,900
we're living in a culture lately
where You kind of have to pick a

950
00:41:24,900 --> 00:41:28,200
side almost and, and it's just
nice to have a proper talk about

951
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:32,400
it because if you, if this was a
scale of 0 to 10, neither of us

952
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:35,700
are at zero or 10, not quite
clearly and it's nuanced.

953
00:41:35,700 --> 00:41:38,400
There's lots of layers to it.
And yeah, I actually really

954
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:39,900
enjoyed that.
And I'd be really, really

955
00:41:39,900 --> 00:41:41,500
interested.
But go on now just because I

956
00:41:41,500 --> 00:41:43,500
think if we pulled it back
around to the original question,

957
00:41:43,500 --> 00:41:46,100
I reckon we could answer a bit
more succinctly now in this idea

958
00:41:46,100 --> 00:41:51,200
of should schools set mandatory
homework, you know, that

959
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,900
children must complete overall.
There's a sort of punishment

960
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,300
Loved, you know, that's kind of
the original question and I

961
00:41:56,300 --> 00:41:58,500
think that you said there's a
big Spectrum, so that I think

962
00:41:58,500 --> 00:42:01,000
the ultimate answer for me is
still, no, I don't think they

963
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,600
should set it and the art and
the kind of solution.

964
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,200
But I think has come from this
is, but there should still be

965
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:11,000
some optional activities and
ways that we can facilitate that

966
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,400
learning at home.
Should they want to so that

967
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,800
people don't miss out.
It's, it's interesting because

968
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:17,400
I'm going to say now.
My answer is still yes.

969
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:22,200
Yeah, I would say it's good.
It's interesting because so that

970
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:23,800
exact question.
Should they set?

971
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:28,200
It and, and I think it should be
said, as man.

972
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,300
Yeah, it's really interesting
because I'd still be like, yes,

973
00:42:30,500 --> 00:42:33,500
but for very certain
foundational things.

974
00:42:33,500 --> 00:42:35,800
And I think that's where the,
but always has to come in.

975
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,200
Because if someone heard you
just say, no, I can imagine some

976
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:39,900
parents.
What, what, what do you mean,

977
00:42:39,900 --> 00:42:41,300
though?
That, of course, it's good to

978
00:42:41,308 --> 00:42:43,000
practice.
And if some people had me to

979
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:44,600
say, yes, I've got our here we
go.

980
00:42:44,700 --> 00:42:46,700
And then a teacher, trying to
take over our weekend with all

981
00:42:46,700 --> 00:42:47,400
the homework.
Yeah.

982
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,700
So that's really interesting.
I enjoyed that a lot.

983
00:42:49,700 --> 00:42:53,000
I know what I do want to do
because something we lack Caden

984
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,000
clearly Is the parent point of
view.

985
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,000
I'd be very, very, very
interested of any you guys

986
00:42:58,000 --> 00:42:59,800
listening.
If you've had children, who went

987
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:02,700
to school, you've got children
currently now who are in school.

988
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,100
Can you talk to us?
And tell us your opinion about

989
00:43:05,100 --> 00:43:09,000
homework will share someone on
Instagram but it'd be really

990
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,800
interesting for Aiden Hayden and
I to get that point of view from

991
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,100
from home because I think we
could probably predict what

992
00:43:14,100 --> 00:43:16,200
people say that before engaged
as always.

993
00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:19,400
But maybe you've got some
specific stories and we want to

994
00:43:19,408 --> 00:43:21,900
hear your insights.
So you know either email us or

995
00:43:21,900 --> 00:43:23,300
get in touch and Instagram with
left here.

996
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,700
So, moving on later in the
podcast, Dylan's got a new

997
00:43:28,700 --> 00:43:30,100
segment for us.
I have no idea.

998
00:43:30,100 --> 00:43:32,700
What is so excited to find out
that we've also got a funny

999
00:43:32,700 --> 00:43:35,200
story to finish off with at the
end but Dylan, I did want to

1000
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,100
just jump in with something
because I couldn't resist that

1001
00:43:38,100 --> 00:43:39,800
toxicity.
You know, when you see it.

1002
00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:42,300
Yeah, I just want to talk about
it and then and moan and it

1003
00:43:42,300 --> 00:43:45,400
really hurts back what I saw to
what we talked about in our last

1004
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,600
episode.
So I'm just going to read parts

1005
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,200
of this post.
I saw on a forum to you and then

1006
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:51,400
we can just have a quick
discussion.

1007
00:43:51,900 --> 00:43:52,800
All right.
Yep.

1008
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,600
So this person.
Said that 50 years old,

1009
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:58,300
unblemished teaching career
being in the career, you know,

1010
00:43:58,300 --> 00:44:03,600
the whole time, classic classic,
just career teacher being a

1011
00:44:03,607 --> 00:44:06,800
little bit ill recently returned
to work and the head teacher

1012
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:08,700
said to them, this is quote
quotations.

1013
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,800
Think about a fresh start?
A new school due to the

1014
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:13,800
disruption caused by your
absence.

1015
00:44:15,100 --> 00:44:17,200
What?
Okay, so obviously got this

1016
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,300
person's back up immediately.
Like what?

1017
00:44:19,300 --> 00:44:22,300
What a thing to say.
So now this person has been put

1018
00:44:22,300 --> 00:44:25,000
on a support plan.
The thing we discussed last time

1019
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,300
that's the solution to this.
Okay, you're on a support plan

1020
00:44:27,300 --> 00:44:28,500
now.
Apparently that's what it means

1021
00:44:28,500 --> 00:44:30,000
when they don't want because she
was Ill.

1022
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,700
Yeah, she was there.
She was off school and the

1023
00:44:32,700 --> 00:44:35,600
headteacher to do 42y.
Well I mean I don't know there

1024
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:37,600
might be some layers, we don't
understand here, but it sounds

1025
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,300
like the court that the context
is person is giving is the head

1026
00:44:40,300 --> 00:44:42,100
teacher has now decided that you
should go and work somewhere

1027
00:44:42,100 --> 00:44:44,800
else, the solution to that is to
put you on a support plan.

1028
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:46,500
I think are two very different
things.

1029
00:44:46,900 --> 00:44:49,900
It's just that classic example,
again of a support plans being

1030
00:44:49,900 --> 00:44:52,100
used to just get rid of a
teacher, you know, I mean it's

1031
00:44:52,100 --> 00:44:54,100
not being used to support a
teacher, it's being used to get

1032
00:44:54,100 --> 00:44:55,800
rid of you.
This is exactly what we said the

1033
00:44:55,808 --> 00:44:59,700
other day and you know, I think
sometimes we can maybe feel like

1034
00:44:59,700 --> 00:45:02,100
we're retreating into our little
hole of opinions, right.

1035
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,700
And you know, it's a we're gonna
go on our podcast and say our

1036
00:45:04,700 --> 00:45:08,400
opinions on things but this is
true clearly we can see that.

1037
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:10,900
Like it's not an opinion.
This is what happens and we

1038
00:45:10,900 --> 00:45:14,600
spoke about it.
The you go on a support plan and

1039
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:16,000
there.
Is no guarantee that it's

1040
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,000
because they care about
supporting you.

1041
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:22,400
There is a very very big chance
that they're just nibbling away.

1042
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:23,500
Yeah.
Trying to make you feel rubbish,

1043
00:45:23,500 --> 00:45:25,600
which is which is working.
And this person is really gutted

1044
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,100
because they sort of finished I
post by saying I really want to

1045
00:45:28,100 --> 00:45:31,600
fight for myself and other
people in these kind of unfair

1046
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:33,500
circumstances.
And they said I'm genuinely not

1047
00:45:33,500 --> 00:45:37,500
a poor teacher as you know as
much as this support plan

1048
00:45:37,500 --> 00:45:41,700
capability thing.
So Jess and just ask this

1049
00:45:41,700 --> 00:45:44,700
question is how can this happen?
Why ahead teachers able to play

1050
00:45:44,700 --> 00:45:47,400
tonight?
Disregard employment law using

1051
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:52,000
made up capability, that's
completely subjective, which is

1052
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,500
something I know we've briefly
discussed before, as well.

1053
00:45:54,500 --> 00:45:56,400
This whole idea of it is
subjective.

1054
00:45:56,500 --> 00:45:59,800
One head teacher might judge you
as our, why your outstanding,

1055
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:01,700
you're an incredible teacher.
And another head teacher might

1056
00:46:01,700 --> 00:46:03,300
not and the teacher that might
not now.

1057
00:46:03,300 --> 00:46:05,600
Has the power today to just ruin
your career.

1058
00:46:05,900 --> 00:46:08,100
Is that what we're saying?
We're happy with that system

1059
00:46:08,100 --> 00:46:11,500
only that, that head teacher can
just ruin it for you to know.

1060
00:46:11,500 --> 00:46:14,400
I've just seems fishy to me and
I still don't understand, maybe

1061
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,800
it should be Cuz when I evil, we
just don't know, we're not

1062
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:20,300
involved, but who's keeping
these people accountable?

1063
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:24,400
Because you just hear so many
stories, don't you?

1064
00:46:24,500 --> 00:46:28,000
Mmm.
Of these certain people who have

1065
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:34,200
the power who are in charge who
are doing this as a pattern over

1066
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:37,800
years and years and years and
because staff turnover.

1067
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,800
So high in these places, you
know what, five six, seven years

1068
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,100
down the line people have
forgotten, mmm, because they've

1069
00:46:43,100 --> 00:46:44,700
moved on to another thing that
we've done.

1070
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,200
We've done so yet, they weren't
there when actually happened

1071
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:50,100
before, and that must be part of
the plan, and it's just his

1072
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,000
honesty.
If you, if you're looking at a

1073
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:55,600
school I promise you, the number
one thing you should look at is

1074
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:58,200
pretension.
Look at the retention of Staff.

1075
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:02,100
Because teachers on the whole
are actually hugely loyal,

1076
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:04,700
they're hugely loyal, they have
children in their school.

1077
00:47:04,700 --> 00:47:07,600
They really care about families.
They've worked with staff

1078
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:09,300
members.
Who are, you know, the glue that

1079
00:47:09,300 --> 00:47:11,100
keeps so many schools ticking
over.

1080
00:47:11,100 --> 00:47:14,700
Because, the camaraderie and the
friendship, it moving school is

1081
00:47:14,700 --> 00:47:16,600
a A big decision.
It's a huge decision.

1082
00:47:16,700 --> 00:47:18,900
How many times have we heard?
Teachers say, oh, that's it.

1083
00:47:18,900 --> 00:47:20,500
This is my, like, I can't work
here anymore.

1084
00:47:20,700 --> 00:47:23,000
And then they do one more year,
two more years, three more

1085
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:25,900
years.
If a school has a high turnover

1086
00:47:25,900 --> 00:47:29,100
rate percentage, you can add a
big chunk on it of teachers who

1087
00:47:29,100 --> 00:47:31,200
want to leave as well, but
couldn't find a job or just at

1088
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:32,800
the last minute.
Thought now, it's easier just to

1089
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:35,300
get my head down.
Yeah, because I tell you now

1090
00:47:35,900 --> 00:47:40,600
that is the biggest indicator
for me for a quality or a school

1091
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,300
that you just don't want to be
in a red flag of her stuff.

1092
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:46,100
Yeah, if I will jump in, As well
because there's another

1093
00:47:46,100 --> 00:47:49,200
perspective of that, which is,
it's not all.

1094
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:52,000
It's mostly a red flag, but I
have also seen situations where

1095
00:47:53,100 --> 00:47:54,800
a school has had the same stuff
for a long time.

1096
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:56,500
Then perhaps like the head
teacher leaves and because,

1097
00:47:56,900 --> 00:47:59,500
because, like you said, people
could be really loyal.

1098
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,800
You do.
Sometimes find though that when

1099
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:04,700
a head teacher leaves, the start
of some of the staff kind of

1100
00:48:04,700 --> 00:48:06,300
leave as well.
Because there was a really loyal

1101
00:48:06,300 --> 00:48:08,900
and really stuck in their ways
of that particular head teacher

1102
00:48:08,900 --> 00:48:11,200
when a new head teacher comes
in, that might not intrinsically

1103
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:14,300
be bad or you know like toxic
and anyway, they're just a bit

1104
00:48:14,300 --> 00:48:15,500
different.
I've got their own stamp on

1105
00:48:15,508 --> 00:48:18,100
things, new ideas.
Sometimes I'd have noticed that

1106
00:48:18,100 --> 00:48:21,500
that that can cause a bit of a
big staff turn around as well,

1107
00:48:21,700 --> 00:48:23,800
but I think we are right in
terms of the big red flag.

1108
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:26,100
For me is if that consistently
happens for the next 10 years

1109
00:48:26,100 --> 00:48:28,100
and every year there's a huge
turnover of Staff just

1110
00:48:28,100 --> 00:48:30,700
constantly and it's the same
head teacher, same SLT.

1111
00:48:30,700 --> 00:48:33,700
It's like probably a bit of a
red flag, but that might not be

1112
00:48:33,700 --> 00:48:35,700
the best or positive place to
workout.

1113
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:37,800
Not guaranteed.
Hey, it's at, it's just a fly.

1114
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:40,900
It turns out after what we just
said about homework, there's

1115
00:48:40,900 --> 00:48:45,800
Nuance to this.
But that's what I wanted to talk

1116
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:47,800
about with that bit, you know.
It's just a, it was just a

1117
00:48:47,808 --> 00:48:50,100
little thing.
It we mentioned it last podcast.

1118
00:48:50,100 --> 00:48:51,900
I thought, hey, go, there's a
bit of proof that we weren't

1119
00:48:51,900 --> 00:48:55,900
just like you said, making up
our own little world, it does

1120
00:48:55,900 --> 00:48:58,500
happen, and it's such a shame.
But talkative, making up your

1121
00:48:58,508 --> 00:49:00,300
own little world.
Welcome to my next segment.

1122
00:49:00,300 --> 00:49:06,400
Like just yeah.
Now this this was inspired by by

1123
00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:08,000
a picture.
I said I guess it's a meme I

1124
00:49:08,008 --> 00:49:11,300
guess it's just online but and I
find myself going down these

1125
00:49:11,300 --> 00:49:14,000
rabbit holes and this was
relevant to teaching and I just

1126
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:16,200
thought it's really fun.
Any because we've totally spoken

1127
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:19,300
about this before, but the theme
here is just hilarious test

1128
00:49:19,300 --> 00:49:21,900
answers or just children putting
down something funny.

1129
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:22,700
Okay.
Yeah.

1130
00:49:22,700 --> 00:49:26,000
And I'm going to start it off by
just reading out the sheet that

1131
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,900
I found which inspired this.
So I'm going to what this she

1132
00:49:28,900 --> 00:49:30,000
is.
There's two parts to this

1133
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:31,500
segment.
Number one, I'll explain in a

1134
00:49:31,508 --> 00:49:33,800
second.
The number to a test questions

1135
00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:35,000
that I'm going to test you on,
okay?

1136
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:36,800
And I'll tell you the real
answer which is what the kid

1137
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:40,900
put, okay.
So the first part of this, this

1138
00:49:40,900 --> 00:49:44,200
is a list of sayings like idioms
that we have okay.

1139
00:49:44,500 --> 00:49:47,500
And The child was given the
start and then had to finish it

1140
00:49:47,500 --> 00:49:49,200
off.
All right, so I'm going to give

1141
00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:51,900
you the start of an idiom, okay?
And then we're going to compare

1142
00:49:51,900 --> 00:49:53,600
it to what the child said, so
you're going to try and finish

1143
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:54,800
it off for me.
Then I'm going to tell you you

1144
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,400
were right or wrong, based on
the child, being the teacher

1145
00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,000
rather child of Marcus pose me.
Now, I'm going to get the same

1146
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,800
answers as the children.
Yeah.

1147
00:50:03,100 --> 00:50:07,300
For example, they start off here
all work and no play makes Jack

1148
00:50:08,300 --> 00:50:11,800
Sad.
Happy apparently according to

1149
00:50:13,700 --> 00:50:15,100
okay.
So we're going to do once like

1150
00:50:15,100 --> 00:50:16,400
that.
I'm going to read them out to

1151
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,600
you and then we're going to find
out what the true answer is,

1152
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:21,300
right?
Got you, got you okay, number

1153
00:50:21,300 --> 00:50:23,300
one.
Okay, don't bite the hand.

1154
00:50:24,700 --> 00:50:26,500
That feeds.
You don't buy that.

1155
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,300
No, don't bite the hand.
It tastes bad.

1156
00:50:30,500 --> 00:50:32,100
Very literal.
Yeah.

1157
00:50:32,100 --> 00:50:33,200
So we've mine was right by the
way.

1158
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:34,400
I don't.
I'm not that.

1159
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:35,200
Come on.
Okay.

1160
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:37,400
Okay.
I'll tell you if it's actually

1161
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:38,800
right in the real world.
Correct.

1162
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:40,600
Yeah.
But the child thought it was

1163
00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:41,500
because it tastes bad.
Yeah.

1164
00:50:41,500 --> 00:50:43,100
Okay.
Next one.

1165
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:47,800
Don't look a gift horse.
Is that in the face or

1166
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,400
something?
I don't know what the real one

1167
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:53,600
is.
Don't look a gift horse in the

1168
00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:56,500
mouth.
Okay, this child put don't look

1169
00:50:56,500 --> 00:51:00,500
a gift horse to me.
All right, nonsense, don't look.

1170
00:51:00,700 --> 00:51:03,800
Don't look, stop talks to me
when the cat's away.

1171
00:51:05,100 --> 00:51:08,000
God, I don't know these idioms I
don't know them when the cat's

1172
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:09,900
away.
Don't sleep in its bed.

1173
00:51:11,700 --> 00:51:13,300
I'm trying to be on the child
level.

1174
00:51:13,300 --> 00:51:17,500
Now, what do they but when the
cat's away you will pay.

1175
00:51:17,700 --> 00:51:23,300
Oh, that's that's ominous scary.
Openness, that's what you should

1176
00:51:23,300 --> 00:51:25,900
get this one.
I hope people in glass houses

1177
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:29,400
shouldn't throw stones.
Correct.

1178
00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:31,700
Yeah.
However, the right answer is our

1179
00:51:31,700 --> 00:51:34,600
Rich.
It's so true like that.

1180
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:38,400
It's nailed that one.
Glass houses houses already.

1181
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:39,200
I thought was gonna be a
literal.

1182
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:40,800
One.
Like people in glass, houses can

1183
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:44,900
see everywhere.
Thanks Rob.

1184
00:51:45,100 --> 00:51:48,600
If at first you don't succeed
try again or try and try again.

1185
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:51,900
Whatever is not calling to this
child stop.

1186
00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:57,900
That's like Michael Scott from
the office to get the quote

1187
00:51:57,900 --> 00:51:59,600
wrong.
That's so good.

1188
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:01,100
It's the first you don't
succeed.

1189
00:52:01,300 --> 00:52:04,600
Stop stop.
You can't do it.

1190
00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,800
You got it.
That's pretty good.

1191
00:52:08,100 --> 00:52:10,500
Next one.
This is one of my favorite ones.

1192
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:16,600
Don't count your chickens.
I can't remember.

1193
00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:20,800
They're going, what are they?
But don't count your chickens

1194
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:25,500
because they need privacy.
So, this is what the children

1195
00:52:25,500 --> 00:52:27,300
was their task.
To actually try and finish the

1196
00:52:27,300 --> 00:52:29,100
idiom like trying to work out.
What's the finish?

1197
00:52:29,100 --> 00:52:31,700
The idiom off so that they were
given what I've given you and

1198
00:52:31,700 --> 00:52:33,900
they had to write out the rest.
Yeah, I mean, that's pretty,

1199
00:52:33,900 --> 00:52:35,400
that's hilarious.
That's what I feel like we

1200
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,000
should do that.
Task just gonna be funny.

1201
00:52:37,700 --> 00:52:40,000
I think we should and I really
want really want to do this.

1202
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:41,000
You know what, the real one is
flow on.

1203
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:43,400
Don't care of chickens.
Don't count your chickens before

1204
00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:46,200
they hatch or something, okay?
Yeah like because, you know,

1205
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:48,000
they might not as a quite old
phrases.

1206
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,300
That don't put Hayden.
Please don't expose me and my

1207
00:52:50,300 --> 00:52:54,900
lack of any exposing new.
Next one, do, All your eggs in

1208
00:52:54,900 --> 00:52:58,200
one basket.
Yeah but according to this child

1209
00:52:58,200 --> 00:52:59,300
don't put all your eggs in
there.

1210
00:53:01,700 --> 00:53:03,900
That would say that was saying,
you said, double your internet

1211
00:53:03,900 --> 00:53:05,600
site, for your eggs in there.
Yeah.

1212
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:07,400
Okay.
And the last one.

1213
00:53:08,700 --> 00:53:14,600
Again, it's all right, okay?
It's all fun and games until

1214
00:53:15,100 --> 00:53:17,800
it's all fun and games until my
God, what is it?

1215
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:19,300
Someone gets hurt or something
like that.

1216
00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:21,900
I can't remember until Darth
Vader.

1217
00:53:21,900 --> 00:53:27,300
Come true place in Rogue one.
Oh man.

1218
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:30,100
I just thought it was so
brilliant because some of them

1219
00:53:30,100 --> 00:53:33,800
make sense but ah, don't count
your chickens because they lead

1220
00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:37,900
privacy that last one though
that last one is like perfect.

1221
00:53:37,900 --> 00:53:39,900
Depiction of child's imagination
of.

1222
00:53:39,908 --> 00:53:41,800
What I love about children's
imaginations.

1223
00:53:42,100 --> 00:53:44,400
It's just they just lacked
really that kid, obviously to

1224
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:47,100
watch that film and loves that.
At that time, I was like, that's

1225
00:53:47,100 --> 00:53:48,600
a thing.
Everyone will know what I mean.

1226
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:53,500
Here.
That shows a good understanding

1227
00:53:53,500 --> 00:53:55,500
of like what they're saying.
Means really, it's like so

1228
00:53:55,500 --> 00:53:56,800
funny.
Something awful happens.

1229
00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,100
Well, yeah, the fade is here
like that, who's enjoying that,

1230
00:53:59,100 --> 00:54:00,400
what's more?
It was the most awesome saw

1231
00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:03,100
something that can happen Darth
Vader, right?

1232
00:54:03,100 --> 00:54:06,600
So off the back of that, I've
gone away and I found some

1233
00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:07,700
questions.
Yeah.

1234
00:54:07,700 --> 00:54:09,600
Okay.
With some child answers at the

1235
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:10,600
bottom.
Okay.

1236
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:12,300
It's going to read through some
of my favorite ones.

1237
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:13,600
Join our answer.
Then, why don't we just go

1238
00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:14,800
straighten?
It depends, if you think I'm

1239
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:18,100
going to embarrass myself or
not, okay, I think you should

1240
00:54:18,100 --> 00:54:19,900
try and answer them because if
you do it by yourself even

1241
00:54:19,900 --> 00:54:23,500
better, where was the American
Declaration of Independence

1242
00:54:23,500 --> 00:54:25,800
signed?
Washington.

1243
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,500
D.c.
I presume at the bottom.

1244
00:54:30,500 --> 00:54:31,900
Oh God, I should have gone for
that.

1245
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:34,100
There's a safe answer.
Good.

1246
00:54:34,100 --> 00:54:35,700
Okay, this is from an art
lesson, yeah.

1247
00:54:35,700 --> 00:54:36,400
Okay.
Yeah.

1248
00:54:36,900 --> 00:54:40,900
What is your favorite Hue?
As in that favorite color?

1249
00:54:40,900 --> 00:54:44,500
I red blue.
That's a No-No Jackman.

1250
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:49,600
Hugh Jackman.
Oh good, good, good.

1251
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:52,300
It was supposed to be color,
obviously, Hua.

1252
00:54:52,300 --> 00:54:54,300
Yeah, okay, buddy.
Next one.

1253
00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:57,600
A long one.
Here a displaces are prepared

1254
00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:00,800
slide on her microscope but when
she looks into it she can't see

1255
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:06,300
anything suggest one reason why
not There's a cap on the bottom

1256
00:55:06,300 --> 00:55:07,800
of the micro, the microscope or
something.

1257
00:55:08,900 --> 00:55:11,300
She's blind.
Oh my God.

1258
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:15,400
That's totally.
I mean, he's not wrong.

1259
00:55:16,100 --> 00:55:17,500
I believe it's not wrong.
Is it?

1260
00:55:18,900 --> 00:55:21,300
It's just like factual, could
she see it?

1261
00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:23,700
That's like, that's that
honestly.

1262
00:55:23,700 --> 00:55:26,100
Sounds like a setup to like one
of those that just like a pub

1263
00:55:26,100 --> 00:55:29,300
joke.
You know, I mean what you just

1264
00:55:29,300 --> 00:55:31,200
really blunt at the end, you
know, it's like so and so walks

1265
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:33,700
into a bar, get those classic
jokes and it's just Always a

1266
00:55:33,707 --> 00:55:37,700
silly couch.
Okay.

1267
00:55:37,700 --> 00:55:39,300
Next song, I want you to do
this.

1268
00:55:39,300 --> 00:55:42,600
I'd always this genuinely, okay?
Describe yourself in three

1269
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,400
words.
Oh wow.

1270
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:47,900
Okay that's L3.
Well done.

1271
00:55:48,300 --> 00:55:55,200
They put I am a rebel.
That's brilliant.

1272
00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:59,300
What because their rebellious I
get it now, right?

1273
00:55:59,300 --> 00:56:01,700
You look at it then I couldn't
count to 4 that would.

1274
00:56:01,700 --> 00:56:04,000
Please us have accounted for, I
get it.

1275
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:06,200
You thought the joke?
There was just that they

1276
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:09,300
couldn't get it right steeper.
It was way deeper than that.

1277
00:56:09,300 --> 00:56:11,000
I'm a rebel I've written for
words.

1278
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:12,900
I get it.
Exactly clever.

1279
00:56:12,900 --> 00:56:15,100
Right.
So next one, Name six animals,

1280
00:56:15,100 --> 00:56:19,600
which live specifically in the
Arctic so I can't be bothered go

1281
00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:29,600
on to polar bears and for Silas
a clever answer.

1282
00:56:30,500 --> 00:56:33,100
The best thing about this was
they'd written three seals

1283
00:56:33,100 --> 00:56:40,400
across that three.
What I mean, again wrong, I

1284
00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:41,500
don't think so.
Not really.

1285
00:56:42,500 --> 00:56:45,100
I wonder how many people have
actually who are listening to

1286
00:56:45,100 --> 00:56:48,500
this at this very point in the
podcast have listened to every

1287
00:56:48,500 --> 00:56:51,400
single episode.
Hmm, I want to do a little test

1288
00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:54,900
if you've listened to every
single episode and you've got

1289
00:56:54,900 --> 00:56:56,500
this far in this episode because
We're near the end.

1290
00:56:56,500 --> 00:57:01,200
Now I want you to go to our
Instagram, send us a message and

1291
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,500
I want you to do an emoji of
Hayden.

1292
00:57:03,500 --> 00:57:05,600
You can pick what random Emoji,
should they send us?

1293
00:57:05,700 --> 00:57:07,900
And it's like code for, they
know exactly what we're talking

1294
00:57:07,900 --> 00:57:10,400
about, how our even further.
It's just it's an emoji that

1295
00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:12,300
only makes sense to us because
they've listened to the

1296
00:57:12,300 --> 00:57:14,300
vodcasts.
So something that we all, we'll

1297
00:57:14,300 --> 00:57:16,100
know, they'll know.
We all know because we've

1298
00:57:16,100 --> 00:57:18,900
listened to the podcast but it
wouldn't really make sense to

1299
00:57:18,900 --> 00:57:20,000
anyone else.
Like they would just think it

1300
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:21,500
was a random Emoji.
Okay.

1301
00:57:21,600 --> 00:57:24,000
So they need to think of their
one of the moments from the

1302
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,800
podcast that listen to yeah,
summarize it Oh gee, send it to

1303
00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:28,000
us.
And then we can try and guess

1304
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:29,900
which part of the upper fun
game.

1305
00:57:29,900 --> 00:57:31,400
I like that.
Yeah, let's do that.

1306
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,700
Okay, cool.
Rishi, I know you're watching

1307
00:57:33,700 --> 00:57:35,300
me.
You send me one of those water

1308
00:57:35,300 --> 00:57:37,400
ones for your little pool.
You got in your garden.

1309
00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:43,900
So just before we wrap up this
podcast, Dylan earlier on, you

1310
00:57:43,900 --> 00:57:46,400
mentioned, like camaraderie at
schools and how that helps

1311
00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:49,000
retention and all that.
And it got me thinking about our

1312
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:53,000
camaraderie and let me yeah yeah
I mean you mean you and people

1313
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:55,200
in general I guess but me and
you for this story and I want to

1314
00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:57,900
finish with like the funny.
Story segment so it just has my

1315
00:57:57,900 --> 00:57:59,600
look more like a corporate
relationship.

1316
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:02,900
Oh a business kind of work in
business relationship, like a

1317
00:58:02,900 --> 00:58:04,700
transactional.
Well, this week has proved that

1318
00:58:04,700 --> 00:58:07,300
because you and answer any of my
messages in the things, you

1319
00:58:07,300 --> 00:58:12,000
suggest that I'm sorry, I don't
think this truly, it's a true

1320
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:15,500
Bromance.
So I was thinking back to, you

1321
00:58:15,500 --> 00:58:17,500
know, our career because we
spent a lot of time together at

1322
00:58:17,500 --> 00:58:20,900
schools, and there's just one
thing I remember, which is where

1323
00:58:20,900 --> 00:58:22,600
you've come up with some funny
names for me, right.

1324
00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:25,300
You know, we in you a chatting
about it and we were laughing

1325
00:58:25,500 --> 00:58:27,900
because you were Kind of rhyming
characters names but making

1326
00:58:27,900 --> 00:58:30,000
about my baldness which is all
you know a good laugh.

1327
00:58:30,300 --> 00:58:32,900
So here is here are two things
that two names at Dylan's, come

1328
00:58:32,900 --> 00:58:37,100
up with right and these two
names, I've actually then just

1329
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:38,400
like you know, if you've
listened to our earlier

1330
00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:40,500
episodes, you'll know that we
just try to teach the kids about

1331
00:58:40,500 --> 00:58:43,300
humility and just having a bit
of fun and learning to just take

1332
00:58:43,300 --> 00:58:44,700
the mick out of yourself a
little bit every now and then

1333
00:58:44,700 --> 00:58:46,100
not being so hard up about
everything.

1334
00:58:46,100 --> 00:58:47,900
So I said to my class is that,
right?

1335
00:58:47,900 --> 00:58:50,000
Mr. Pryce has come up with two
names.

1336
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:52,800
I need you to vote on what the
best nickname for me is and the

1337
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:59,300
two names were Lord Voldemort
and the other one, the classic.

1338
00:58:59,300 --> 00:59:02,200
Yeah.
Lord Baltimore and Goldilocks

1339
00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:07,000
and the three hairs.
So, I presented that to my

1340
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:10,300
class, I don't know what you,
you know, how I think about

1341
00:59:10,300 --> 00:59:12,800
home, because I think there's a
clear winner then we'll do a

1342
00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:15,800
vote, will do a vote because we
said, we said straight away and

1343
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:19,300
from me, my point of view
because I came up with them, I

1344
00:59:19,300 --> 00:59:21,200
was so much more proud of one of
them.

1345
00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:22,700
Yeah.
Like and I think it's quite

1346
00:59:22,700 --> 00:59:25,900
clear, that Lord Voldemort is
quite lazy like, because yeah.

1347
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:28,600
Voldemort is.
Yeah, bold and it rhymes with

1348
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:33,800
bold bold but when I bowled a
locks in the street yet, it's so

1349
00:59:34,300 --> 00:59:37,100
so happy.
And so the kids though, late

1350
00:59:37,100 --> 00:59:39,400
that I agree, by the way, bold
locks on the three hairs is

1351
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:41,100
genius.
Got the double rhyming in there?

1352
00:59:41,100 --> 00:59:44,500
It's really clever.
But yeah, the kids love Lord

1353
00:59:44,500 --> 00:59:45,800
Baltimore.
I think it's just more.

1354
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:47,400
It's Harry Potter.
You know, they can just relate

1355
00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:51,000
to and it's just funny to say so
a quick story for you, Dylan,

1356
00:59:51,300 --> 00:59:53,400
okay?
This week, I had a text message

1357
00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:56,500
from someone.
I know you're not Super close.

1358
00:59:56,500 --> 00:59:59,100
But just I just know this
person, and they messaged me

1359
00:59:59,100 --> 01:00:04,100
saying that they were out and
about in town and in a fish and

1360
01:00:04,100 --> 01:00:07,400
chip shop bumped into a family,
they sort of know as well.

1361
01:00:07,400 --> 01:00:10,500
So just a classic like bit of
chitchat and they are with their

1362
01:00:11,700 --> 01:00:14,700
their child, right?
And just make it a bit of small

1363
01:00:14,700 --> 01:00:18,200
talk that my friend personal
message me said to the child.

1364
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:21,100
Oh yeah, so what you do is you
go to the way to go to school

1365
01:00:21,100 --> 01:00:24,100
buddy, buddy to the what sort of
stuff and turns out they go to

1366
01:00:24,100 --> 01:00:27,400
the school, I work in it, turns
out there is I class as well.

1367
01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:30,000
No and and he said oh do you
know mr.

1368
01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:33,000
Stevens then and this child said
yeah, that's my teacher but we

1369
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:39,400
all call him Lord Voldemort my
friend just text me.

1370
01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:42,000
This obviously in stitches like
what on Earth are you doing with

1371
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:43,500
these kids?
Why are they calling you Lord

1372
01:00:43,500 --> 01:00:47,600
Voldemort?
Yeah fully it fully exposed me

1373
01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,400
telling myself around me.
Yeah.

1374
01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:52,600
How much do you regret that
other than are not at all?

1375
01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:55,100
Not at all because to me I was
like, all right, I'll get my

1376
01:00:55,100 --> 01:00:56,800
revenge.
Don't It will have a good laugh

1377
01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:58,300
about it.
And that's why that's why I

1378
01:00:58,300 --> 01:00:59,700
love, you know, again going back
to teaching.

1379
01:00:59,700 --> 01:01:02,000
I love that song about teaching.
I'll have us properly.

1380
01:01:02,100 --> 01:01:05,000
We will on Monday next week.
I'll mention that and I'll do

1381
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:06,700
the whole like pretending to be
annoyed thing.

1382
01:01:06,700 --> 01:01:10,000
Build it up and we'll have such
a good laugh over that moment.

1383
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:12,600
And, you know, hopefully be
something memorable but I just

1384
01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:15,900
thought was funny out how your
silly names of got to the point

1385
01:01:15,900 --> 01:01:18,300
where a child a fish and chip
shop refers to me as Lord

1386
01:01:18,300 --> 01:01:22,500
Baltimore to strangers.
It did make me think about other

1387
01:01:22,500 --> 01:01:26,200
stuff we've done.
So I know there's so much, I

1388
01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:27,400
thought I thought up on straight
away.

1389
01:01:27,400 --> 01:01:30,800
Come on, come on, yeah, go on
because it is one my favorite

1390
01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:34,000
things I've ever done.
But like, like, like just for

1391
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:36,600
the context for everyone who
might not know we've we've

1392
01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:38,800
worked in schools with each
other like across the year.

1393
01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:41,400
Sometimes we did, sometimes we
didn't, but for like years and

1394
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:43,900
years now and it's just a
constant back and forth between

1395
01:01:43,900 --> 01:01:46,400
Hayden and I have answer.
I get one up on each other, just

1396
01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:49,200
constantly constantly trying to
undermine each other in front of

1397
01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:50,400
other people.
It's cool.

1398
01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:52,500
But everyone knows.
It's a joke like a well-known

1399
01:01:52,500 --> 01:01:55,200
thing.
And My favorite things like ever

1400
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:58,300
did was I'd borrowed your
stapler once because I don't

1401
01:01:58,300 --> 01:02:00,900
have like a hand stapler once
and you're the guy.

1402
01:02:00,900 --> 01:02:03,700
You I know.
Yeah, I know you've got it.

1403
01:02:03,700 --> 01:02:05,800
So I whenever I want need one
I'll come and grab it off you

1404
01:02:06,300 --> 01:02:08,700
and I went in to grab it one
time and you went in there and I

1405
01:02:08,707 --> 01:02:10,500
was like, oh well I really need
it and I know where it is.

1406
01:02:10,500 --> 01:02:12,100
So I'm just going to go get it
out of the drawer.

1407
01:02:12,500 --> 01:02:15,600
And what I noticed was Hayden's
laptop was open with his

1408
01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:18,200
afternoon lesson ready because
obviously, you know, we don't

1409
01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:20,400
really get time at lunch as we
talked about before, so you get

1410
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:22,100
everything ready.
As soon as you can, that's one

1411
01:02:22,100 --> 01:02:23,800
less thing to think about the
smarts ready.

1412
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:26,000
And he was eating his lunch,
then the other end of the

1413
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:29,500
school.
So I knew for a fact that Haydn

1414
01:02:29,500 --> 01:02:31,800
had a picture of himself from a
math lesson.

1415
01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:35,400
He did ages ago, saved in his
computer and it was like, it

1416
01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:37,400
wasn't like a, it wasn't
inappropriate anything.

1417
01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:39,300
It was just like a funny picture
of embarrassing.

1418
01:02:39,300 --> 01:02:41,500
So what I did yeah, it was in
fact was like from when you were

1419
01:02:41,500 --> 01:02:44,900
at school, when you had your
lovely locks of hair, so what I

1420
01:02:44,900 --> 01:02:49,800
did was I got that photo, I want
a laptop, I got that photo, and

1421
01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:53,700
I was really proud of this.
I basically copied it into his

1422
01:02:53,700 --> 01:02:55,800
lesson.
Add a new slide like my three

1423
01:02:55,800 --> 01:02:58,400
down.
So that so that what he's

1424
01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:02,400
teaching his list he would press
this and what I stretch the

1425
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:04,900
photo to fill the frame.
So you're already warped your

1426
01:03:04,900 --> 01:03:07,000
face was so wide.
You can see your hair and your

1427
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:10,400
smile got across other thing.
But my most the thing I was most

1428
01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:14,200
proud of was that I also put it
in again like three slides from

1429
01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:18,200
the end because I know Hayden
has this kind of idea of just

1430
01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:20,700
checking his smiley to make sure
nothing's happened to go through

1431
01:03:20,700 --> 01:03:23,200
it again.
And I just knew that if I put it

1432
01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:27,100
in there twice, Again he won't
notice it and lo and behold

1433
01:03:27,100 --> 01:03:29,400
teaching this lesson you can
tell the rest.

1434
01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:30,600
That's exactly what happened.
I noticed.

1435
01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:32,700
The first one I saw it there on
the side it was only a few

1436
01:03:32,700 --> 01:03:34,400
slides in.
I was like classic, they learn,

1437
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:35,900
he's been in here trying to
prank me.

1438
01:03:36,300 --> 01:03:38,300
Well, played well played but you
know I'm not falling for it.

1439
01:03:38,300 --> 01:03:40,500
This time, delete the slide and
then taught the lesson video

1440
01:03:40,500 --> 01:03:44,300
came up again later on it just
as full screen image of me, just

1441
01:03:44,300 --> 01:03:46,900
looking silly.
It was funny, I love do dick

1442
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:48,300
because it was just before your
task.

1443
01:03:48,300 --> 01:03:50,400
So I really wanted this to
happen where you just a try.

1444
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:51,900
Okay, everyone had a really good
lesson.

1445
01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:55,000
We've learned so much, now's
your chance Really show off.

1446
01:03:55,100 --> 01:03:58,600
Here's your task for super
fucking walk dead.

1447
01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:02,600
Yeah it was booked as well.
You stretched it another time.

1448
01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:04,800
It just you did the he's done
this a couple times, right?

1449
01:04:04,900 --> 01:04:08,800
And another time this was I
think maybe before then, I don't

1450
01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:10,100
know.
But another time you did it you

1451
01:04:10,100 --> 01:04:13,000
just when I went out to breaks
Duty and I came back in, I just

1452
01:04:13,000 --> 01:04:14,700
literally get in my class to
come back in for the next

1453
01:04:14,700 --> 01:04:16,100
lesson.
You'd been in my classroom,

1454
01:04:16,100 --> 01:04:17,800
probably borrowing my stapler,
as always.

1455
01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:20,600
And I just thought it'd be funny
to put a full-screen image just

1456
01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:23,300
on the screen there.
Someone came back in and it was

1457
01:04:23,300 --> 01:04:25,000
all there and the Best bit about
this story.

1458
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:28,400
Was it just happened to be the
one time that I walked in, with

1459
01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:30,300
the deputy head, never ever
happens.

1460
01:04:30,300 --> 01:04:31,900
Never happens.
But a deputy had walked in with

1461
01:04:31,900 --> 01:04:34,000
me and obviously, I'm, you're
leading with kids in.

1462
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:38,700
He's talking to me as we go in,
looks at the board and I wasn't

1463
01:04:38,700 --> 01:04:39,200
so.
Don't know why?

1464
01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:41,000
Because he's a great guy, but a
little bit of me was a little

1465
01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:43,100
bit like, oh God, I'm worried
that he's gonna be like one

1466
01:04:43,100 --> 01:04:45,300
Earth are you doing?
But he just immediately

1467
01:04:45,500 --> 01:04:47,100
immediately said that has been
here.

1468
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:55,300
He just knew he knew, it was you
I forgot about that because you

1469
01:04:55,308 --> 01:04:57,000
can obviously you can freeze
your screen.

1470
01:04:57,000 --> 01:04:58,300
Yes.
When you're teaching us stuff

1471
01:04:58,300 --> 01:05:00,700
and multiple times, I've done
the same thing where I've just,

1472
01:05:00,700 --> 01:05:03,400
I've not put it in your lesson,
but I'll just come in freeze

1473
01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:06,100
your screen at one time where I
tried to hide your remote.

1474
01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:08,100
See, you can.
Yeah, you did.

1475
01:05:08,700 --> 01:05:11,300
Yeah, you did.
I found it in my like you found

1476
01:05:11,300 --> 01:05:13,300
it eventually like I knew you'd
find it cause she needs to teach

1477
01:05:13,300 --> 01:05:15,100
a lesson, but I just thought
it'd be funny to send you into a

1478
01:05:15,107 --> 01:05:16,900
panic or three minutes.
As you guys can tell, I'll be

1479
01:05:16,900 --> 01:05:19,000
bringing a support line soon.
Because, Dylan tenant has

1480
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:20,700
victimized me at school as
another.

1481
01:05:20,700 --> 01:05:25,600
Another time here he is years.
Ghost turning into like an Agony

1482
01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:26,500
Aunt.
Yeah, exactly.

1483
01:05:26,500 --> 01:05:28,300
I'm gonna realize the end of
this, you're not my friend at

1484
01:05:28,300 --> 01:05:29,100
all.
You're the ones that were called

1485
01:05:29,100 --> 01:05:30,300
me.
A big forehead at school.

1486
01:05:31,300 --> 01:05:34,900
It wasn't a joke.
So, back in our early days of

1487
01:05:34,908 --> 01:05:37,700
teaching, tenant would quite
often walking with his phone up

1488
01:05:37,700 --> 01:05:38,800
filming.
This is after school.

1489
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:40,400
I way after school with
marketing and things at this

1490
01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:43,100
point and he had this little
stress ball like a little Globe,

1491
01:05:43,100 --> 01:05:45,200
I remember it.
Well just little squishy thing

1492
01:05:45,200 --> 01:05:47,400
and he'd walk in with his phone
out film and get like first

1493
01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:49,900
person hand there and he'd
always try and launch it across

1494
01:05:49,900 --> 01:05:51,100
the room.
See if he could get me with a

1495
01:05:51,107 --> 01:05:52,900
ball.
I need such a good shot.

1496
01:05:52,900 --> 01:05:54,700
It was so annoying.
It was Maybe jump because you

1497
01:05:54,700 --> 01:05:56,100
died should be hit with a stress
ball.

1498
01:05:56,300 --> 01:05:58,400
And he's walk off laughing.
I try to always try to get my

1499
01:05:58,408 --> 01:06:02,400
revenge on him, go back to his
room, phone out, launch the

1500
01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:05,400
ball, missing by at 4 meters,
just embarrass myself.

1501
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:07,200
So I know, I never quite got
your back for that one.

1502
01:06:07,300 --> 01:06:09,800
That's where all those years and
years of Youth Cricket.

1503
01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:13,400
Come in handy, you know, walk of
those stumps as your heads much

1504
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:15,500
bigger than a bale, like a
Christmas question.

1505
01:06:17,900 --> 01:06:21,000
Let's leave that there.
You exposed your brain, but

1506
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:22,900
yeah, my head is much bigger
than a Christian Bale.

1507
01:06:25,300 --> 01:06:29,700
Cricut file, Christian Bale.
The only time I've managed to

1508
01:06:29,707 --> 01:06:33,000
slightly get you back and I
consistently do it is just any

1509
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:35,300
any email that signed off from
me and you because we're the

1510
01:06:35,300 --> 01:06:38,600
mass coordinate is a school any
email, it'll be yeah.

1511
01:06:38,600 --> 01:06:39,200
Thank you.
No.

1512
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:42,300
Thanks Hayden.
And then I'll / and Dylan are

1513
01:06:42,300 --> 01:06:45,900
spelled his name wrong and put
it in slots, font size for or

1514
01:06:45,900 --> 01:06:48,300
something, just so really?
Yeah, it's insignificant man.

1515
01:06:48,500 --> 01:06:53,100
Who was also did this job with
me, the banter?

1516
01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:55,800
All right.
Anyway, before I get accused of,

1517
01:06:56,300 --> 01:06:59,100

maltreatment of Hayden

1518

1519
01:07:02,800 --> 01:07:05,900

01:07:09,100 --> 01:07:11,900
syllables maximum, just just get
