In this episode we talk about Money! In particular, should we teach young people about it, if so what has been holding us back and what do they need to know. We are joined by Rhys Chudasama, a young man who joined KPMGs apprenticeship scheme at 18 and moved to London who talks about his experiences of trying to manage money and career, the challenges young people are facing and where they go to for advice. We hope you enjoy it! If you do don't forget to review our podcast.

In this episode we talk about Money! You may have heard people say 'Don't ever talk to people about Politics, Sex or Money.' Well we are steering away from the first two but have decided to go all in on Money. The millennial generation is said to be the first generation that is predicted to be poorer than their parents and statistics tell us that most families do not have enough money saved to cover them in an emergency. In a world such as this can we afford not to make money a more central part of our curriculum? Hosted by Roma Dhameja and Karl C Pupe this podcast explores the above with the help of Rhys Chudasama a young man who started an apprenticeship with KPMG after school and who talks about his experiences with money.

In this episode Karl and Roma discuss The Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities Report, it's impact and whether we can really measure racial discrimination.  We also talk about the power of representation. We are absolutely delighted to be joined by Adrian McLean, known to many on twitter as @Character_guy and is a powerful voice when it comes to inclusivity and representation. Adrian shares his years of experience as a head and now a Trust Leader and leaves Karl and Roma speechless with his wisdom! We know anyone listening whether in education or not will benefit from the gems that Adrian shares.
