    I'm thinking of providing a webinar of 'Phonics Poor Practice' (and misconceptions) - some of which has been caused or exacerbated by official materials and guidance. Anyone interested? It will be free of course.

    We’re in the throes of a pandemic - life and death stuff - why are people banging on about children catching up. Teachers should do what all good teachers do when schools resume - teach children from where they are at that time - without panic and pressure.

    That’s how clear, determined and passionate we should all be on understanding the enormity of criminality of those who manipulate and dupe the world.

    Regardless of the perspective of Stonewall and copyright protection, how are teachers going along with this at all? Why aren't they on the parents' side to be concerned about inappropriate curriculum content? How can any school go along with NOT being transparent?

    'Hundreds, there were thousands'. The BBC and other mainstream media news and commentary programmes dig themselves into a bigger and bigger pit of lies and political disinformation and misinformation. It's evident every single day and has been for a considerable period now.

    I might be at odds with other education advisors, but I don't believe in this obsessive 'catch up' agenda and ever-more pressure on teachers or children and their parents/carers. Change the rhetoric for everyone's sake and ease-off.
