Sadly Doug & Mark the mentality that we are all criticidibg continues to be preached by the policy makers at the @educationgovuk for schools and colleges. They don't seem to have realised that we are in the 21st. not the 19th century! We must teach our students for the future! – at Royal Tunbridge Wells, England
How many reports do we need saying the same old thing?! A job for life is long gone, the education + skills = job equation is flawed. There is a complete disconnect from key literature here, at a policy, strategy & practice level for the main part. Things really need to change!

What is it about getting your kids’ school report that gets you? Not the academic ‘achievement’ bit but you get another’s insight into the person they’re becoming; their traits, character & individuality. Thanks @UskPrimary for teaching my girl how to think - not what to think ♥️
