    Anyone else find it exceptionally difficult being a parent from a proudly working class background, bringing up children in a middle class area with middle class parents?

    As an FYI. 1) Oak was built by teachers. The lessons were designed by teachers. It was a massive, cross country, collaborative effort. 2) The tech behind Oak focused on ensuring as many people could access it safely and securely. It mean zero tariff access was possible.

    Here's a good rule for Twitter. Maybe not to use it as a forum for commenting on another teachers capacity in the classroom? Yeah, that's a good rule.

    If anyone thinks direct and explicit instruction is rote learning...... They don't understand direct instruction.

    When people remark about conspiracy or cloak & daggers behind it, it's not just wholly inaccurate. It's deeply offensive and hurtful to the hundreds of people who committed and worked hard toward it. Shame on you. Being part of Oak was one of the greatest honours I've ever had.

    Probably because they are children and need more help to remind them about the expectations you sign up to when they and the family agree to attend a school ๐Ÿคท.

    I read this alongside PISA and can't stop a) Feeling sick b) We did pretty well in recent PISA tests. Just wonder what that would have been if we were in the green. We'd be a bloody powerhouse.
