Description

The podcast where three experienced teachers discuss big questions relating to the world of politics. Between us we have many years of studying, teaching, examining, and, in one case, doing politics. This podcast is ideal for anyone studying or revising A Level politics or anyone with an interest in politics. However, we aim to go beyond the specification in our episodes; everything from the origins of democracy through to political book recommendations.
