I've always been ambitious and in teaching I've found plenty of opportunities to progress.

As head of English, I now get to support all other teachers in my department.

They often learn from my advice, though actually I often learn from theirs.

The support and development we all get from each other is amazing.

It benefits not just us, but every student we teach.

How many of the professions can say that?

Every lesson shapes a life. Start shaping yours with a minimum starting salary of £31,000. Search get into teaching.

Welcome to the Wittering Whitehall's, the opening episode from me, Hillary, and my beloved husband, Michael Whitehall.

You're going to speak?

Anyway, the purpose of this podcast is to welcome you to our home here on the embankment of the River Thames in Leafy Putney to this podcast where we are hoping that we might be able to help, advise, share our wisdom

of things that we've picked up over the years.

Perhaps we'll save that for another episode.

Before we start, I know this is a little bit early doors for this, but it would be so

helpful to us if you could, first of all, subscribe to our podcast so that you don't miss
