E309 Block 4 Week 21.1
myths all over the world children will be learning maths and English in the morning yet no evidence to suggest that children learn these ‘proper’ subjects best at this time of the day.
-
hot countries, are more tired in the afternoon and the teachers themselves are more tired if they have taught all morning (Bray, 2008, p. 50), but there is no evidence that learning outcomes differ. yeah but the is confirming best when alert
all schools differ: maybe maths is only ever taught before playtime, or all classrooms have a teaching assistant.
schools are autonomous systems and teachers, as professionals, interpret the same policy and guidance in different ways.
-
not uncommon for new teachers to step away from a previously held belief, as they become assimilated into the shared ways of a particular school.

TALIS (Vieluf et al., 2012) the more opportunity teachers are given to participate and work with each other ‘the more effective and satisfied they are’ (p. 121).
One of the key changes for teachers has been to appreciate that changes in professionalism has brought about changes with key stakeholders, for example, parents and the local community.

Herbert Morrison school is *very different to what you might find happening in a rural school in Zimbabwe,
where teachers live on site in school cottages and where children walk or cycle many miles to school, with parents who are away working or cannot travel the distance to meet the teachers.
engaging with parents and the local community is a part of what it means to be a teacher in the 21st century.
since the 70s- move to a new framework for school governance in England and Wales where parents form the majority on governing bodies (Gillard, 1987).
2017, the Scottish government backed new reforms giving parents a stronger voice over the running of schools.
BS Ozzie acknowledgment of aboriginals...ticking a box! also bad grammar is this direct quote from gov??!
