Description
In Australia, there is an education gap. Children living in rural and remote areas experience an educational inequality. Difficulty accessing resources and opportunities can put rural students up to 2.5 years behind their metropolitan peers by the time they reach Year 9. Teach Learn Grow (TLG) is a not-for-profit organisation committed to the mission of bridging this educational gap. The Pod: A TLG podcast, was created to not only inform people on all TLG related news but also educating our audience about this great educational divide.
