What if this was really true? What would if take for this to be true for your school?
I know you want your school to be for its people: students, staff, families, the local community. But I also know that the official version (teachers teaching students in class) is really quite simplistic and often naive. The real stories tell something more.
Would you like to take part in a blog experiment? Instead of using the Comments to debate my attempts to make sense of schools maybe you could make a brief comment and then illustrate it with a story from your own (recent) activity and experience - good, bad or indifferent.
Let's start by gathering the range of things that people like you do in connection with schools.
What is one of the things that you have done recently that needs to be better and more widely understood?
As the themes become clearer we can focus on particular aspects and learn together.
Worth a try? I think so... it seems to me that the present orthodoxies are not serving anyone very well.
Looking forward to learning with/from you and your stories.
