Join the TES team as we discuss the week’s biggest talking points in the world of education. We talk about the magazine's redesign and discuss how a decline in Asian high-flyers' math scores under the latest Programme for International Student Assessment (Pisa) study could simply be down to switch to computer tests. We explore how dogs can help pupils progress in schools and we talk about Carol Dweck's response to criticism of her growth mindset theory. Tune in and enjoy.
