We are in the process of visiting prospective schools for my 3yo ds.
When we went to one today the ht was discussing 'freeflow' in reception, saying (prefaced with 'this is not a sexist comment') that in theory the govt encourage it but in practice it would mean 'all the boys would be outside running around and all the girls would stay inside'....
In the school we visited last week we saw free flow working well with no apparent gender divide!
Is this a harmless comment or would it make you think twice about sending a ds there? I'd a good mind to give him a copy of my Cordelia Fine!!
