Parents rejoiced to send them back to school, while teachers prepared to face them all again … Five. Days. A. Week! Coming out the other side of the pandemic years, podcast sensations Lee and Adam Parkinson – aka the Two Mr Ps – bring you the most hilarious, ridiculous anecdotes from inside our primary schools.
Join in on the classroom antics as they share the unexpected pitfalls of online teaching, all the reasons you need a strong stomach to take on Early Years and why not every household item makes a suitable Harry Potter wand …

No time wasted here.... hilarious read!
This book will have you literally laughing out loud! I have been a TA for 8 years and the stories in this book are sooooooo very relatable. A few in there that will shock you too! My favourite is when a child takes an animal from the zoo on a school trip ( I won't spoil it and tell you the animal) I actually shrieked 'oh shit' to my shock my 2 year old decided to copy my reaction! 🫣
I listened to the book within 48 hrs of downloading. A great read/listen, highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

No time wasted!
From a fellow teacher, a top class listen! Thoroughly enjoyed the audible version as it felt like an extension/recap of the podcast. Loving your work!

If you need to laugh out loud, read this!
A fantastic follow-up to their previous book, full of laughs, silly but relatable stories, and poignant moments, as they review how the pandemic affected school staff, parents and children.

For teachers!
Laughed out loud many times. Very relatable. Nice to know you're not alone in the profession and your opinions about the profession.

Absolute class!
I’ve been teaching for 21 years in an infant setting. I must say you have made me laugh so much - doubled up on occasions!
Most of the time it’s because I’ve actually experienced it!
Being a teacher is a privilege- educating the youth of today! Yes we have backlash from society - I personally don’t react anymore! I know how hard I work and how draining and emotionally challenging it is. But it is also the most rewarding profession ever, knowing that you have had a small impact on a little person’s education and future.
I say - if people want to have an opinion then come and try a term at it before you share your views!
Thanks Lee and Adam! Can’t wait for the next instalment. 👌🏼
