@RobertJenrick How are you going to sort out social care?

[Dan Meigh @danotg]

@Miss_Snuffy This is a perfect example of why teaching communication skills, the vital combination of arts and science, is so important.

@StVitusDance @aquitainexox @marksandspencer Turns out that you can’t believe everything they print in the Express.

[Dan Meigh @danotg]

@Strickomaster It does, but if you get it right, a majority will want to be involved and it becomes a vital part of their education.

[Dan Meigh @danotg]

@Cheerful2weeter @dian_arifiya So you take on this is, go and dangerously exploit someone for your own massive gain?

[Dan Meigh @danotg]

@Sonyawebbtweets @KingBobIIV Because chocolate eggs are such a vital element of the Christian celebration of Easter.

[Dan Meigh @danotg]

@KingBobIIV Most schools have ignored Easter for years. But you’ve only just noticed now it’s expedient to be angry.

[Dan Meigh @danotg]

@georgegalloway Most schools ignore it completely and have for years. But you’ve only just noticed now it’s expedient to be angry.

The perfect lesson (according to management): Students enter silently, immediately start the perfectly differentiated task waiting on their desks. Teacher seamlessly floats between tables, asking precisely-timed Bloom's Taxonomy questions while simultaneously taking detailed assessment notes, providing personalized feedback, and updating the board's learning objectives.

Every student has a profound lightbulb moment exactly 3 minutes before the perfectly-timed plenary, where they articulate their newfound mastery in complete sentences with academic vocabulary.

All evidence is instantly triple-marked in three colors before the bell rings, at which point students bow respectfully before filing out to spread the gospel of how transformative their learning experience was.

Meanwhile, real teachers celebrate when the projector actually works and nobody sets anything on fire.

If it looks like a dictatorship, and acts like a dictatorship, then maybe….

[Dan Meigh @danotg]

@SuellaBraverman I have. We’d save some cash but can you imagine how far society would regress? Depends what you most care about I suppose…

[Dan Meigh @danotg]

@RupertLowe10 I see you have made yourself God, deciding who should live and die.

Or are you actually God?

(Please let me know as that will make my voting decision much easier).
