A Chinwag with the Education Secretary

As we hit the summer break, the 2 MrPs have set up some specials to keep you entertained while you're having some well-earned downtime. Mr P recently visited the Department of Education to catch up with Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson about how the new government is moving forward with its education plans. Listen to their chat where Mr P asks all the important questions about Ofsted, the new R.I.S.E initiative and even gets the Education Secretary's opinions on teachers using AI to help workloads. 🎟️ Make sure you grab your tickets for our next tour — it’s our BIGGEST and BEST one yet, coming to venues across the UK and we seriously can’t wait to see you all! 🗓️✨ 📍 Dates & Venues: 🎭 October 2025 18th: Manchester, Aviva Studios 🐝 24th: Rhyl, Pavilion Theatre 🌊 25th: Northampton, Derngate 🏰 26th: Hull, City Hall 🎟️ 27th: Reading, Concert Hall 📚 28th: Exeter, Corn Exchange 🌽 29th: London, Hackney Empire 🎡 30th: Worthing, Assembly Hall 🌅 31st: Guildford, G Live 🎶 🎭 November 2025 1st: Torquay, Babbacombe Theatre 🌴 15th: Belfast, Ulster Hall 🍀 🎭 February 2026 14th: Edinburgh, Queen’s Hall 🎻 15th: Newcastle, Tyne Theatre 🎭 17th: Birmingham, Town Hall 🏙️ 18th: Sheffield, Memorial Hall 🧱 19th: Leicester, De Montfort Hall 🦊 20th: Bradford, St George’s Hall 🏰 22nd: Cardiff, New Theatre 🏉 🎭 May 2026 22nd: Salford, The Lowry 🎨 🎟️ Grab your tickets now at 2mrpspodcast.com/live 🎟️ 👯‍♀️ Tag your teacher crew, bring your mates, and let’s make this tour UNFORGETTABLE! 💃🙌🔥 Learn more about your ad choices.
