The duo are joined by Secondary Assistant Principal, Richard Moxon, to discuss the challenges faced by secondary schools through lockdown and plans for opening fully to all students in September while keeping bubbles operating. We also discuss the process of GCSEs this year and the potential issues that could be faced by students with Ofqual's announcement that they may have to adjust teacher assessment by up to 12% points for A Levels and 9% points for GCSEs.
The duo also discuss the recently announced 3.1% pay award for teachers and the wider implications of this on the sector. The devil is always in the detail!
Richard also confesses to Sunday drinking while watching the football and the Dutch courage it gave him to wind up his then Headteacher with a photo of the Chelsea score. He didn't take it too well and until today didn't know who it was! Something tell us that he might now!

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
