I want to tell you a true story which may help someone. Last year a teenager wrote to me. They were in their first year at a very prestigious university and felt they couldn't cope, that they were a failure and would be a disappointment. They said they felt suicidal.
Wales won't say if there's any new money for the CME database, see my consultation response about why this matters. Deadline is tomorrow edyourself.org/consultation-r…
What if the real issue with mobile phones isn't that students have them, but that parents do.
@bennewmark @jac_wac @katief1978 @JonHaidt So I think certain kinds of social media usage are genuinely concerning. But I also think it’s a perfect storm of that, plus more parents in full time work, plus kids not going outside / as far as they used to, plus increased exam pressures, plus decline in faith & community.

I'm more guilty than most of presenting schema as neat, hierarchical structures. There are other views. Rosch's prototype theory is particularly persuasive, as is Hoffstadter who fuses analogies & chunking. Whichever you choose to believe, it should be loosely held.

The whole student finance requiring parents to go through a massive recovery process because they had student loan accounts from before the internet - it’s insane, isn’t it? Like legit the worst design process you could ever imagine?
In the US, young people’s self-directed activities have largely been replaced with those organized by their parents. They are prevented from figuring out how to live safely because their parents and schools view the world as so dangerous that they need to be shielded from it.
Haidt recognizes that our cultures come to shape our minds. Our brains are wired as a result of our experiences, and because people in different cultures have different experiences, they end up with quite different minds, as cross-cultural studies routinely demonstrate.
Threshold for Persistent Absenteeism in Wales changed from 20% to 10% of sessions in Oct ‘23. The % of persistently absent secondary school aged children has been revised for 22/23. The % of persistently absent primary aged children 22/23 has also been released.
Sch accountability causes untold harm & locks teachers, YP & fam's into a culture of hypersurveillance. It does not have to be this way. There are more humane systems of sch eval elsewhere. Find out where/what these look like here #education #edutwitter schoolsweek.co.uk/labours-accoun…

Tweeting in a personal capacity - opinions don't necessarily represent those of any employers.I will never name a school or parents (unless the story is already in the public domain) as this could identify a young person. If that means you think I'm lying, so be it. I don't know why you think I would be motivated to lie about something like this. I'm not trying to…
@naomicfisher @jenhawk6248 Lies lies lies, you don’t name the school and I can tell you (16 years in teaching) no school I have ever been in would do his (trust or otherwise)
@katief1978 @HeyMissSmith We used to have a lot more specialist provision (not necessarily good or effective) but special schools were the main destination for a lot of the needs we now see in inclusive classrooms. It’s better in many ways BUT the funding was not transferred in full. Another cut corner!
@katief1978 @pig_witch @HeyMissSmith I think I'm biased toward 2000s because I was part of Connexions in a school for 9 years. It wasn't perfect but that and the range of things that aren't around any more genuinely worked. Now that my kids have gone through the current Academy Lite system you feel the change
@katief1978 @eentheadviser @HeyMissSmith I’m 1970sand 80s educated. When I look back, we had ‘certain’ children who were allowed to play for the entirety of their primary schooling. We were streamed and the ‘bad’ kids usually stopped attending from around year 9. Bottom sets were basically just crowd control.
@pig_witch @katief1978 @HeyMissSmith i was at school in the 80s and that all sounds familiar. We certainly dont want to return to that. At the same time I am aware that kids of my generation have happier memories of school than the more recent generation
@katiehall1979 @MsQuinnHistory I have time for all these arguments. I think generally schools could probably do a better job on communicating reasons for rules to their communities and this is more necessary than before as people challenge more and less willing to just accept which isn't a bad thing..
@bennewmark @MsQuinnHistory And you’ll count these ideas as ‘reasonable’ no doubt but it’s all about perception of that social contract for kids and parents…as you know seeing things as a parent gives you a new perspective.
@bennewmark @MsQuinnHistory And that was what my initial point was about…maybe there is a greater resistance to school rules because (sadly) in the left suburbs parents feel more able to say ‘No’ to the policies which have been imposed elsewhere for a while.
@bennewmark @MsQuinnHistory My issues with these policies when they were introduced in inner cities was that unless you want your kid at a school with this sort of compliance culture you shouldn’t want it anywhere…and this is only becoming clearer.
@bennewmark @MsQuinnHistory it has fundamentally undermined her respect for the teachers that do this and the whole behaviour system. And this is in a school where most kids are like her..i.e. mostly well behaved and without the need for this sort of drilling.
@bennewmark @MsQuinnHistory has introduced some variant of SLANT/STAR. She has been asked to put a pen down when she’s taking extra notes in lessons and told to put her hand down when trying to ask a question. You will say this is about everyone not just her…you’re right but…
@bennewmark @MsQuinnHistory And whilst, yes, we are seeing more individualism we are also seeing more school rules systems which are predicated on complete compliance and zero tolerance…that is a fundamental change in that social contract
@bennewmark @MsQuinnHistory Oh I agree with the Social Contract thing absolutely but that suggests that the rules being suggested are reasonable, workable and thought through…I’m increasingly not sure this is true
@bennewmark @katiehall1979 @MsQuinnHistory Black shoes vs trainers! I was literally offered the same thing in a shoe shop for Black school shoes and Black trainers. I couldn't have told the difference and as a teacher i couldn't have cared less.
@katiehall1979 @MsQuinnHistory I know people say this a lot but whenever I ask for specific examples of this either there's nothing or what's shared seems reasonable. I do think we should probably all chill out a bit about uniform though. Trousers and polos!
@katief1978 @HeyMissSmith (based on my own experience) schools used to have a SENCO who did that and nothing else, they would also have a sizable team to cover numerous lessons. Other support services in and out of school also used to be there (sure start, connexions, youth serv etc)
@HeyMissSmith @BehaviourA The very fact that we see more summer born children diagnosed with special needs suggests the system is part of the issue.
@HeyMissSmith when I started 30yrs ago there were one or two kids in the whole school (500kids) whom everyone was aware needed specialist approach. Now there are one or two in each class.
@HeyMissSmith @BehaviourA Agree about lack of support for SEND but I also think the level of demands generally is causing a mismatch between children and needs being met. More pressure on settings usually trickles down no matter how hard we try to stop it.
