In the thirty-second episode of the Just Checking In Podcast we spoke to Headteacher of ThornHill Community Academy School in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire, Matthew Burton. Matthew came into a bit of fame through a little show called ‘Educating Yorkshire', which was broadcast on Channel 4 in September 2013, after which he became affectionately known as 'Mr Burton' to the wider public. The show focused on the day-to-day life of ThornHill Community Academy School in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire where he was an English Teacher, when the show was filmed. Stories focused on children and staff alike, from Year 9s struggling to manage school life to stressed-out Year 11s concentrating on their GCSE exams, teenage relationships, fights, bullying and one truly inspirational young lad called Musharaf. In this pod we talked about the show, how Matt, his colleagues and the students dealt with fame as well as Musharaf and the life-changing story which catapulted them both into the national spotlight. We also discussed his teaching journey to date, Matt's experiences of imposter syndrome and fatherhood, including his wife's miscarriage which occurred shortly before the filming of Educating Yorkshire took place. Also on the menu was COVID-19 and how it has affected his students lives, particularly GCSE and A-Level students, Matt's newly published book 'Go Big: The Secondary School Survival Guide' as well as his new podcast, 'Until Further Notice'.

First came BAFTA winning Educating Yorkshire, then Educating Essex. So why not adapt their documentary skills to filming children, thought production company Twofour That's how the returning CBBC series Our School was born. The first series was set in Conyers School in Teeside. The current series shows life in Greenwood Academy in Castle Vale, Birmingham. Kez Margrie, CBBC's executive producer, says she hopes the series will help make the transition from primary school to “big” school easier. That's not to say that it's all smiles and laughter during the series. Some storylines show some of the children finding the jump to secondary school hard, with one boy, Isaac, having sessions with the school's youth worker, Sean. Executive producer Richard Marson says they thought carefully before deciding what to show from their conversations. And what about having cameras and the production team all over the school? And then having the results shown on television? Performing arts teacher and series narrator Trevor Evans advises the school thought long and hard about all aspects of what doing the series could bring - positive and negative. Our School doesn't just see the children growing up, but also the production team. One of the best things, Richard says, was being able to take some of the team from the first series onto the second, with researchers moving to assistant producer roles and even producing episodes. *This podcast was recorded in a public space and therefore some audio is not to our usual standards.*
