Episode Synopsis

Send us a textMany of you be be aware that despite teachers and students working incredibly hard over the difficult situation that the Corona endemic has created on all of our lives, vital grades were changed due to an unfair post code lottery algorithm created by a Tory government in the UK who clearly want to divide and conquer much further. It’s sad in these times that teachers yet again face the backlash of not having their professional judgements that they have had to tirelessly support for their students to get the grades that they have worked for over the last two years. I discuss the faulty system and what ‘expected’ grades and ‘predicted’ grades mean because it’s apparent many individuals are under the assumption teachers just select a grade that pops into their head! If only... it was that simple! Well done to all the heartbroken students who protested and stood up and made a difference in getting the decision changed. “Education, Education, Education”  was once stated by dare I say it Tony Blair... the reality is as Pink Floyd states: “ All in all All its just another brick in the wall, All in all you're just another brick in the wall” .Support the showThank you for your support.
