We thought that Mark Whalley had a lot of interesting things to say on retention and couldn’t fit them in to the main podcast. Here is the full interview as promised.

We mention the previous episodes on force and weight, here are a few:

• 6. What happens when your jelly won’t hold your weight? Is it time to lose some mass?
• TAG, Mass and Weight
• Force or False (Forces @ Primary School)
• Teaching Forces to 11 Year olds
