In our latest episode , we dig deep with Tom Saunders, a former farmer turned geography teacher who's revolutionising agricultural education. We tackle crucial questions: Should agriculture become a GCSE? Is it only relevant in rural areas? And how can we make farming sexy?


Get ready for a lively discussion as we delve into:

  • Tom's unique journey: From the fields to the classroom, Tom shares his passion for agriculture education and his innovative rural group for students.


  • Agriculture in schools: Is it time for a dedicated GCSE? Should it be taught nationwide, or stay focused on rural areas?


  • The glamour gap: How can we make farming more appealing to young people? We tackle the image problem and explore exciting solutions.


  • NFU Conference: We recap the key takeaways from this major farming event.


  • Becca's big win: We celebrate Becca's incredible achievement and her contribution to agriculture.


Plus, get ready for a dose of Lizzie's infectious Northern accent as her passion for the topic shines through!
