Thank you Sara Wheeler @saradwheeler for your #point_of_view on radio 4 on the perpetual lockdown of those with mental incapacity. Both our adopted daughters are in the same predicament. They are the forgotten people, whose lives seem to have no meaning to the world.

“Extending #Vygotsky’s perspective, a socio-cultural perspective is offered, by considering the role of ‘others’, ‘language’, ‘activity’ and ‘identity’, as part of the process of sharing and understanding #feedback in classrooms“ https://t.co/7cCLGYg0Ea #assessment

It will be of no help to children with attachment disorders either ....again often these are children who are or have been in the care system, and who need support and help, not ‘crack down’

[Rachel Mears (Lofthouse) @DrRLofthouse]

Really helpful explanation of why ‘crack down’ won’t work for children with foetal alcohol syndrome disorders. This pattern of developmental gap opening up over time mirrors my experience with one adopted child. It meant secondary school got tougher each year with ripple effects

“I feel I came into teaching for all the right reasons... but am leaving for all the wrong reasons."

Teachers are leaving due to the nature rather than quantity of workload, suggests research by @JaneEPerryman.
