Lower Sixth Students Launch Epsom’s First-Ever Podcast

Over the summer, a group of independent-minded students approached their teachers with the idea of launching a series of podcasts. This term, the pupils, now in Lower Sixth have succeeded in putting their ideas into practice. The team consists of Ollie Butcher (H), Jude Clark (G), Maddie Fairbank (M), Max Franks (H), Oskar Giles and Allegra Sheen (M).

Their first podcast involved Jude Clark and Allegra Sheen speaking with the Head of School, Izzy Mitchell. Discussion points involved how pupils experienced lockdown and what the role of Head of School involves. Listen below:

 

The second podcast is a special release as part of the College’s Black History Week. Maddie Fairbank and Max Franks interview Olaiya Adeniji (F), Remi Adeniji (W) and Ida Saidy (W). They explore complex and topical issues such as police brutality, colonialism and the school curricula. Listen below:

You can subscribe to the series via Spotify or Apple Music, both of which are now hosting Epsom Insight. The series will shortly also be available on Google Play.
