@mrs_denglish@RogersHistory@grahamchatterl2 People are free to block, of course.
But to name call & ‘chat’ about an account behind a block is not respectful behaviour
I’ve been critical but never ‘vile’ to @RogersHistory yet he blocked
Personally, I’ve never blocked an account but then I’ve not experienced pile ons tbf
@grahamchatterl2 With loads of other factors thrown in
Deterrence is for the birds IMO
These are difficult & important questions & deserve honest debate - which you tried to do - maybe on the wrong platform(?)
I could feel the fear of people to get involved & get ‘cancelled’
You spoke up
@grahamchatterl2 A YRO may reduce the risk of reoffending but may ‘fail’ the victims & affect others coming forward/reporting
And a custodial sentence may recognise the immediate victims and support future reporting but result in higher reoffending rates & therefore more victims…
@grahamchatterl2 It’s incredibly difficult & deserves serious debate
Rehabilitation & reducing reoffending is massive, of course
As is victims feeling justice has been served
And faith in the CJ system
All compounded by already low conviction rates, poor prison outcomes & divisive discourse
Agree.
Especially judge’s comments - no recognition of the trauma of a trial for the victims.
And there will be a review.
But to use this truly horrific situation for ‘behaviour in schools’ point scoring is equally disrespectful to the victims
@ClassChartsPS@RogersHistory@grahamchatterl2 Not on board with the childish name calling. But that's not all that was going on there. The minimisation of what has been done and the infantilisation of the 14 and 15 year olds and the acceptance of the judge's comments was unacceptable.
A matter for our independent judiciary.
I was calling out the gross misrepresentation of @grahamchatterl2 posts by @Rogershistory who has of course, blocked in response.
@grahamchatterl2 Of course he really likes the system - it means the adults can label struggling kids as ‘nuisances’ and punish them for their difficulties.
Much easier than having to actually teach them or help them when they’re struggling with…say, an assessment paper 🤷🏻
@TTRadioOfficial Sounds depressingly familiar 😫
And it’s total BS for SEND kids.
Mine was repeatedly sanctioned for the very difficulties outlined in their SEN doc, that the SENDCo wrote.
Once you label difficulties as a ‘Choice’ or ‘Chance’ you lose all empathy, curiosity & humanity.
@warwickmansell This is business model that supports the crazy salaries you rightly focus on (always follow the money)
Make compliance cheap to implement & easy to inspect, dress it up as ‘standards’ remove anyone who threatens the business model - then harvest the Ofsted ratings & exec pay 💰
@cierzo1 Compliance is easy to measure. Curiosity isn't.
Unhappy children don't just learn less. They lose the curiosity they were born with.
We decided a long time ago which one mattered more.
@SamStrickers181@m_chiles And yet some schools only communicate via an App - meaning students HAVE to use a device to access homework/timetables etc. 🤷🏻
@BarryNSmith79 And that attitude, is why we are all now paying for the million NEETS, and not just in 💰 & but societal costs.
Your ‘majority’ will, in the future, have to ‘pay’ for the ‘minority’ that schools forced out because it was cheaper & easier for them to do so.
@planebottle@sciantificnew@TTRadioOfficial I have more than one child.
And am more than aware that efficiency is the driver, just not sure efficacy is the result, and I’m painfully aware that my child is just viewed as another brick in the wall.
