England, Wales, NI, Scotland and anywhere else across the world. What's wrong with it, what does it need, how could you reach every child?

Haven't RTFT, but have a look at my thread (it's only day 3 and I've cried already). And politicians should only be allowed to implement changes after extensive consultation with people with actual, recent classroom experience. Why the fuck they thought a one-size-fits-all approach was a good idea for GCSEs God only knows! Put the privately educated twats in a school in a deprived area for a while and then see what they think!

I love my visualiser too! I don't know how I would manage without it. My DD's school have just shortened the infant playtime so they can spend more time on formal learning. They also have to have a mindfulness time every week now because the children are so stressed by all the formal learning they have to do Hmm

I don’t think Kazzy is thinking of visualisers when she bangs on about teachers getting with the edtech program.

First thoughts... No money + no resources= no power to help children with a range of barriers.

It’s just getting ridiculous!
