Every year, millions of parents across England face a key decision: “What school should I choose for my children?” On your podcast, Karen can share insights from thousands of parents, so your audience can find the approach that works for them. On top of that, Karen can talk about what to do when your children don’t get accepted to the school you prefer and what actions to take. Backed both by Karen’s experience, and the experience of thousands of other parents who went through this process.
It’s no secret that mums and dads have different approaches to parenting and running a household. But what specifically? Karen has the answers. As she surveys thousands of parents across England every week, she provides a unique peek inside family lives. On your podcast, she can walk your audience through the main differences, as well as how to use these insights to balance responsibilities between parents… Did you know that dads are more relaxed about behaviour, but mums swear more often?! 🙂
Due to the COVID pandemic, today’s generation of children is often labelled as the “lost generation”. But did remote schooling really cause children to learn less or are we catastrophizing what happened? Karen has been asking thousands of teachers and parents the important questions throughout the pandemic to get the answer. On your podcast, she can uncover the reality of what really happened and why the future looks way more optimistic than people think.
