Emeritus Prof Christopher May on Nostr: #RishiSunak's plan to reform A-levels into a new English Advanced British Standard ...
#RishiSunak's plan to reform A-levels into a new English Advanced British Standard would require over 5,000 extra #teachers to deliver.... but even the attrition in the profession driven by the endless miss-handling of #education by the #Tories, there are already too few teachers (even with the dilution of need engineered by having Teaching Assistants).
Unless Sunak's 'plan' is for teachers to work (even) longer hours, this looks like more declaratory #politics with no chance of ever happening!
