Two Heads Are Better Than One

The Nursery and School Guide's Podcast Recommendation:

Many Edinburgh parents will know retired head teacher Rod Grant from Clifton Hall School, and, a few years ago, Cameron Wyllie, who retired as Head from Heriot's School. They have put their two heads together and started a podcast. I have a lot of respect for both of these heads because historically, they have not been afraid to have opinions and share them. Whether you agree or disagree with those opinions, it's never in doubt that these two professionals are passionate about Scottish Education and pupil welfare.
