About
Teachers Talk Radio
Teachers Talk Radio is a teacher-led, online radio station and podcast network, bringing together educators for thoughtful, honest conversations about education. Now the UK’s largest audio platform for teachers, it also reaches a growing international audience.
Founded in January 2021, with its first broadcast just weeks later, Teachers Talk Radio has grown into a thriving community of over 30 hosts.
Most of our team are current classroom teachers and school leaders, offering intelligent, experience-driven discussion from the front line of education. Broadcasting from across the UK and beyond, they bring a wide range of perspectives to every show.
What makes Teachers Talk Radio unique?
Unlike traditional education podcasts, all Teachers Talk Radio shows are broadcast live. This means listeners can text or call in, joining the conversation in real time and engage directly with our hosts. With shows scheduled every day, there’s always an opportunity to have your voice heard.
We’re proud of the diversity of thought across our team - no two hosts are the same. Our programming spans advice, insight, debate, and entertainment, offering a wide range of perspectives from across the education sector.
What if I miss a live show?
Every show is released as a podcast, so you can listen back whenever it suits you. Visit our Listen Back page to catch up on demand.
In November 2023, Teachers Talk Radio reached one million downloads - a milestone made possible by our incredible community of listeners.
