TLTP 012A - Eleven Minus

Sit up straight, pay attention, and no talking in the back of the class while Miss is speaking! It's time for this month's TWOsday Project!   This time, Hayley plays the part of teacher, effortlessly segueing from strict disciplinarian to 1950s-drunk-on-gin-teacher trope, while Shaun and Alex embarrass ourselves by answering maths questions from an example 11+ exam. We also reprise Episode 12 by talking about Cyril Burt and his influence on the 11+.   Do you like what we do and want to show your support? Well, you can now give us a helping hand via Patreon! Just go to https://www.patreon.com/LastTuesdayProject. If every listener gave us a dollar a month, we will be able to furnish Tuesday Tower with all sorts of hipster paraphernalia, as well as get Shaun a Hipstermatic 3000 beard trimmer for his birthday. Please donate - he's in dire need of a trim.   This month's icon uses a drawing of Bristol Grammar School from Wikimedia Commons. (OK, it's an independent public school rather than a state-run grammar, but we liked the photo.) Want to get in touch? We're on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Or, you can email us at podcast@lasttuesdayproject.com.  With huge thanks, as usual, to Strong4Life for the use of his music.
