This long read from Daisy is rightly getting a lot of attention. It sets out where we’ve been, where we are and where we’re now going.
It shows that, even if a policy shift is inevitable, we needn’t repeat mistakes from the past.
Anyone with policy influence must read.

He set up a school and it has a track record.
Sadly that track record does not include high standards.

I don’t doubt Peter’s sincerity or his desire to improve education. However, good intentions are no substitute for a sound educational philosophy and a proven track record of delivering exceptional outcomes. Regrettably, I remain unconvinced by either.

What a great read! The mention of 'APP' grids had me hyperventilating, what a logistical nightmare they were, having had firsthand experience of launching these at the time 🤯 Also, the phrase 'doing the same thing again & again and expecting a different result springs to mind 😵💫

Brilliant. Not enough is being said about the premise for these reforms being the rise in NEETs.
The rise in NEETS has little to nothing to do with schooling, and almost everything to do with gov policy choices over the last decade.

This is a must read for anyone who has even a passing interest in the current education debate. It frames perfectly what the current govn is trying to achieved and how it might best do this, and the trade offs to get there. To me, it appears that standards are being traded off.

This is quality. Hopefully Labour and the DfE will read it.

Daisy is brilliantly - and painfully - on the money….

A must-read. Evaluating education policy rigorously requires a) deep knowledge of the arguments, history & evidence & b) an awareness of what proponents & opponents of a policy value. @daisychristo demonstrates this in ways that our politicians would do well to learn from.

He’s been working hard for that for a long time though - and also so what? He gets even more rich, helps make a few schools a bit worse but they would have done that anyway 🤷

Daisy summarises...everything. Deserves to be one of the all time blogs we return to.

This absolutely nails it. Raises all the questions about education that journalists should be asking Lucy Powell, or for that matter, Andy Burnham.
