In this week's VICE podcast we talk about ACE schools, a network of evangelical Christian schools in the UK. We're joined by David Waldock, who attended an ACE school in the 1990s.

We also discuss homophobia in British secondary schools and a potential LGBT role model in London's newly named night czar.
