In this episode, parent Daiman Baker, clinical psychologist Dr Victoria Eames, and veteran teacher Robin Johnson discuss the Athena Learning Trust’s rigid, "too strict" regime. They pull back the curtain on a script-based system that strips teacher autonomy and isolates anxious children in "reflection rooms."

But this conversation goes deeper than critique. Through moving, personal stories of educators who shaped their own lives, the speakers make a powerful, emotional plea to restore the soul of education. Discover why human relationships—not rigid scripts—are the true foundation of student success.

We are a group of parents and carers concerned about our children – their mental health as well as their test scores.  We seek transparency and accountability from those who impact our kids.
