Things not measured that matter:
Teacher inspires student who later embarks on a uni course and future career because of that teachers subject enthusiasm (no evidence to show at the time)
Teacher who helps a student at school who was getting bullied to gain in confidence, in hindsight this is a turning point in their life (no evidence to show at the time)
Teacher who is a role model, almost like a parent in the childs life, over many years - this influences who they are as an adult (no evidence to show at the time)
Teacher consistently makes kid(s) laugh on days when they really were hating life, helps them through school years (no evidence at the time).
Teachers high expectations and routines facilitate the student to have high expectations and routines themselves later in life (no evidence at the time)
Wait - seemingly no *value* at the time. All I see is progress 8 this, exam results that. But these things matter. Teachers who do this stuff matter and yet the profession is on its knees because far too many of these teachers leave without a shred of any recognition. Others take it for the stuff that is measurable, but often highly flawed and subjective.
Happy holidays.
No killing, no airstrikes, no starvation, no injuries, no sieges, no loss of our loved ones or ourselves. The killer is gone.
It’s hysterical. For hours with no sleep, I am still unable to process this, unable to grasp that Syria is free. Our country is ours again.
