Tax Facts with HMRC and Cameron Stewart

December 01, 2023

We break new ground for the podcast today by having two guests from His Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC)! HMRC are the organisation who administer tax in the UK, and a little known fact about them is that they have volunteers who go into schools to deliver HMRC's very own programme of lessons all about tax - Tax Facts!


We're very grateful to Amy Healey and Heather Hughes from HMRC who joined us in person and down-the-line from Newcastle to talk about the programme and what's involved. Thanks also to our very own Cameron Stewart, programme leader for PGCE Secondary Maths, who joined us to reflect on what this means for schools here in Wales who'd like to use external organisations to add a new angle to the subject of maths.


If you'd like a Tax Facts ambassador to visit, you can email hmrc.taxeducation@hmrc.gov.uk or visit the Tax Facts page on the gov.uk website.


We'll be back in two weeks - see you then!
