In this important conversation David Jones and Dr Naomi Murphy talk about why so many boys underachieve at school with Mike Bell. And why has so little research been done on this subject? Mike is a former science teacher, evidence-based teaching trainer, author of Fundamentals of Teaching, founder of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Men and Boys issues, and lead researcher for the APPG's 2023 inquiry into boys' educational underachievement, explains the findings behind his latest book ‘Yes He Can'. He argues that boys' underachievement is real, widespread, and not inevitable. (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Closing-Attainment-Boys-Secondary-School/dp/1041242158) We discuss the data behind the attainment gap, why the problem is most visible in secondary school, and what six British schools did to close the gap without extra resources or special training. Mike also challenges common assumptions about male teachers, toxic masculinity, and the causes of boys' poor outcomes. Key topics Why Yes He Can is built largely from teacher transcripts and school practice, not theory The size of the attainment gap from school readiness through GCSEs, A levels, and university Why the gap narrows in primary school but widens again in secondary school How primary teachers' close knowledge of pupils creates more individualised support The consequences of boys' underachievement, including disengagement, NEET outcomes, and wider social costs Why some boys become hostile to school when they feel lost, punished, and misunderstood How school culture can become a place where boys actually want to come Why the research base is weaker than people assume, despite widespread concern Why Mike does not see male teacher shortages as the main explanation Why the schools he studied were effective because they shared intentions, not identical methods Timestamps (Approx) 00:00 - Technical setup and Mike Bell's introduction 01:47 - What Yes He Can is about 03:27 - How the APPG inquiry led to the book 06:28 - The attainment gap from primary school to university 09:59 - Why secondary school widens the gap 11:30 - Social consequences of boys switching off 13:42 - Making school a place boys want to come to 15:16 - How school structure affects less able pupils 17:10 - Why boys were once seen as advantaged and girls as disadvantaged 18:57 - How the six schools were found and why primary practice mattered 20:26 - Why the research base on boys' underachievement is so weak 23:33 - What the six successful schools had in common 24:58 - Why male teachers are not the key solution 26:58 - Why he rejects toxic masculinity as the root cause

www.marktreichel.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-treichel/Credit union acquisition activity in 2026 tells a story the headline numbers hide. Only four or five bank purchases have been announced so far this year — but according to Michael Bell of Honigman LLP, that is not a slowdown. It is a market in which banks are bidding more aggressively than ever, and credit unions are losing more bids than they win. Bell argues that outcome is actually evidence against the banking-lobby claim that credit unions overpay and compete unfairly: if credit unions were routinely overpaying, they would not be finishing in second place on roughly ten strong bids in the last few months.Mark Treichel talks with Bell and his Honigman partner Justin Gingerich about the full range of credit union non-organic growth: whole-bank purchases, bank branch deals, and — newer — the acquisition of mature CUSOs by large credit unions bringing services in-house. They dig into state-level friction, including Washington State's tax law that Bell says has raised zero revenue while shutting down credit union bidding there and depressing bank valuations, and the parallel dynamic in Tennessee.The conversation turns to the biggest shift of all: credit union to credit union mergers of equals (MOEs). For most of Bell's 23-year career these barely happened. Now he is having new MOE conversations weekly, and once a letter of intent is signed, roughly eight of ten close. Gingerich walks through the Wings/Ent transaction — a merger creating an institution north of $10 billion that won NCUA approval in four to five months, a timeline he calls unheard of — and credits Honigman regulatory partner Brandy Bruyere for navigating a process he describes as “baking a cake when the recipe is only half written.”Treichel adds the regulator's view: NCUA honors the democratic member-vote process when disclosures are sound, and with roughly 30% fewer staff after retirements, deal teams are effectively re-educating the agency as volume rises. The takeaway from both guests: strategic non-organic growth is now a mainstream lever for institutions building 2027 strategy — and sticking your head in the sand is not a strategy.
