ESU Recommends

This month, we discover a podcast about all things educational; enjoy a feature that conjures the visceral fear of public speaking so many of us feel (and tells us what to do about it), and look forward to a book that seeks to unite us around a new vision of Englishness, far removed from the story so often told that serves only the interests of the right.

We’re also flagging an article that gives an interesting take on some of the current conversations about mental health, asking if parents – who are are increasingly prone to worry if their child isn’t anxious about starting university – are at least partly to blame.

Find these and more in our article on the members’ hub now.
