We discuss the reaction to the DfE's pilot of the new times tables check, and a turf war between Ofsted and the DfE that saw schools get caught in the crossfire.

We also look prison schools: how teachers show kids behind bars that they care, and whether something could have been done earlier in the system to stop them reaching this point.

Tune in and enjoy.
