Before ‘Bucket Time’ gets written as a legal requirement into an EHCP…..oh.

Now that ‘Bucket Time’ is being written into EHCPs as a legal requirement…we REALLY need to talk about Attention Autism and Early Years.

And we’ll be doing this on Bluesky.

[Kindred Squared @KindredSquared]

The relationship between child poverty & educational outcomes is well established, with children from lower-income households less likely to achieve than children from more affluent families.

How can we reduce inequality in the early years?

Research from 'The Balancing Act' by @charliehacking and @Dominic_Wyse @HHCP_UCL will be shared as part of this training, explaining the place phonics should have, not the one it currently has with SSP!

The pamphlet that I co-authored for the Froebel Trust has now been released.

[Early Education @earlyed_uk]

This new report provides detailed evidence on the availability of early education and childcare. It confirms that families in disadvantaged areas face greater barriers to accessing EY provision locally and that there are significant regional variations 1/2

@theSENDcast @SebdaOrg Rob Long’s words always recommended!

@clairedotcomms @educationgovuk @RachaelMaskell @teamsquarepeg @NotFineinSchool In terms of creditable research, the behaviourist approach has always been found wanting, rooted in a place of evidence-lite ideology. However, this important area is always explored, with international, peer-reviewed studies in the @SebdaOrg journal

@clairedotcomms @educationgovuk @RachaelMaskell @teamsquarepeg @NotFineinSchool And it also perverts the learning experiences of those who CAN cope with it, while creating an illusion that it is valid.

[Missing The Mark @_MissingTheMark]

I have recorded a second series of free short videos with @naomicfisher for Autism Central about education. They include ways to work with school, but also some suggestions if school isn't working and you need to find another way.

Rather than echoing this alarming news as ‘post-Covid figures’, I’ll rename it more accurately as ‘Post Inclusion figures’. This is with the best intention of preparing our education system for an urgent, honest, thorough redesign 🤞

📚 | NEW REPORT: School exclusions & suspensions are on the rise, and it is disproportionately affecting certain children. Our new report with @TheDifferenceEd looks at the scale & impact of the problem, including the huge cost to the state.
