This week, we talk about a new report assessing the success of free schools, and secrecy around the conflicts of interest of the minister who oversees them.

We also discuss an investigation into why academies can choose who moderates their writing SATs but maintained schools cannot, and examine the case for letting pupils experience failure in the classroom.

Tune in and enjoy.
