A question for teachers, both primary and secondary.
I'm appalled at all this obsessive grammar learning children are being made to do in primary for the SATS - under the new curriculum.
Its the labeling I can't stand. I'm sure its useful to learn some grammar - although I didn't in the 80s. And I still went to university to study English.
Its worrying me so much that I'm thinking of taking my children out in Year 6 to home school them and so miss the stress and boredom of that SATS year. I'll keep them learning - but not bother with all the grammar labeling.
Will that cause problems in secondary school do you think?
