Listen "Episode 132: Closing the disadvantage gap"
Episode Synopsis
Closing the disadvantage gap is a national priority, and it should be everyone's responsibility, from school staff to governors and parents. But closing the gap is not just about making teaching and learning better, it's much more complex than that. In this episode, Fin and Jane discuss how teachers can make a difference.
