There's a bonus episode 22 this year because we started our PGCE late, so we're finishing later than usual. And that means we've reached the final episode of season 3! In another pandemic-disrupted year, we've still managed to have a great time interviewing the great, the good and the knowledgable in the education world about their specialist subjects. Today we've managed to get the boss herself, Dean of Cardiff School of Education and Social Policy Julia Longville, to talk about a subject that ...

In the second episode of this doctoral double-bill, it's Tom's turn in the hot-seat to discuss his progress so far. Tom's gone for the more traditional PhD option because he likes being left alone to get on with things. The story so far includes Welsh mining communities, National Curriculum fights, the oddities of music teachers and plenty more. We hope you've enjoyed hearing about two doctoral research experiences. If you're interested in applying for an MA or doctoral programme here at Cardif...

It's also a chance to hear about the EdD - a doctorate that may not be as widely known as the PhD, but potentially p...
