This short bonus episode captures a proud moment for Workington Academy Radio, as students from the Behind the Algorithm podcast were featured live on BBC Radio Cumbria on the morning of 9 February 2026.
Hear highlights from the broadcast as our students confidently share their work and discuss why they are investigating social media and algorithms. It’s a snapshot of student voice, ambition, and the power of young people leading meaningful conversations about technology, wellbeing, and digital life.
A brilliant milestone for the team, and a reminder of what can happen when students are trusted with real microphones and real audiences.
