In part 2 of our 'see you into 2018' series, Mr Lane answers some questions about his childhood and school life that were set by Gilberd history club member, Luke.
As we near 2018, here is the first of two episodes discussing what education was like in the 1990s and early 2000s. In this episode it was the turn of fellow history teacher Mr. Harden to be grilled by the history club members...
On November 7th 2017, I ran a session on the centenary of the Russian Revolution for students in years 9-11 as part of the Gilberd School's "Masterclass" programme. The idea is to engage students into areas of subjects they would not learn through the standard National Curriculum.
A staggering 51 students stayed behind after school to hear me ramble on for an hour and in this special edition of the Pod, you can sit in there with them and learn a little something about the Russian Revolution.

In the words of Eminem, "Guess who's back, back again..." that's right, it's Past Voices! Our final 'student led' episode for a while before we move onto series one which will look at the personal history of some of the staff of The Gilberd School...with their permission I might add.
In the meantime, why not listen to this very informative episode about the history of flight from three of our year 8 students: very knowledge young men indeed. As always, you can get in touch on twitter @pastvoicespod and the email is pastvoicespod@gmail.com.

In this bumper edition, Year 7 students from The Gilberd School in Colchester talk us through two, that's right two, topics that interest them.
We'll be away for a few weeks taking a short break ahead of a few more student led episodes before we delve head first, finally, into season one.
