Update: 2025-08-14
Description
Today A-Level results have reached record highs since the Covid pandemic, with London students achieving the best grades in the country.

Efua Poku-Amanfo, a researcher at the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR), joins us to discuss.
And in part two, John Darlington, director at the World Monuments Fund, joins us to explore the history of Kirkaldy’s Testing Works museum in Southwark, which features as this week’s Hidden London destination.
