Frank and Stan Chat No. 160

After a break of five weeks to recharge the batteries the two long time friends are back for their 5th academic year. This week's chat focuses on the problems some schools and the government have encountered regarding aerated concrete. A week when the Secretary of State for Education swore during an interview with ITV, when some schools returned their building survey questionnaires to find the DfE didn't have an accurate list and Sir Martyn Oliver was interviewed by the Education Select Committee. In addition, the gents chat about their journey as inspectors and why having a Chief Inspector who understands inspection is an important attribute. Also Frank reflects on his support for Southend United and why, during a period of immense uncertainty Kevin Maher, their manager, has managed to encourage the team to play for the fans, the town and their own self respect. He is showing some outstanding leadership. And finally, Stan makes public his gratitude for what Frank does!!!! Enjoy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
