    Lock in for the grand finale of SQUAD!
    In the final instalment of this series, we look back at lots of the amazing military teens we’ve met from the last 7 episodes.
    With the help of 2 experts – Louise Fetigan, the Founder of Little Troopers and Tamzin Messeter, Educational Psychologist  - we recap the chat, explore recurring themes and unpack some of the experiences shared by SQUAD’s military teens. 
    From school-work struggles to trauma triggers, we’ll listen back to key moments from the series and offer up some helpful advice and expert insight.
    It’s the perfect way to end - a celebration of the realities of your teenage military life; the highs, the lows and everything in between. Thank you for listening to SQUAD – continue to be amazing.

    SQUAD is back and this time we’re talking about school!
    We all have to go to school, but it can be particularly hard if you have parents serving in the British Armed Forces. It might mean you’ve been to lots of different schools – maybe even in a different country! – or you might attend a boarding school or go to a civilian school where there aren’t many other military children.
    Listen as our presenters Katie Thistleton and Thom Smith chat to this episode’s special guests – military teens Cloe, Kieran, and Cadence. 
    Together they discuss their very different schooling circumstances, explore how being from a military family impacts their academic experience and share lots of advice on surviving term-time.
