@smeg Great opening: "If your goal was to create a miserable work environment where employees are stressed, burned out, disrespected and given no say in their job just look to U.S. schools for inspiration." I can only talk from my experience in AU, CN, and TH school systems, but through online community engagements w/ educators around the world, I feel this is true globally w/ only a few exceptions. There is a #trend in #education around the world, changing #culture and #learningoutcomes.

On the 'pernicious nonsense' of #LearningOutcomes:

'Responsibility ... has been reduced ... to the ticking off of boxes. What matters is that the directives have been complied with, not whether students have actually learned. And how could you devise a metric for the kindling of imagination, for joy, wonder, wisdom, enlightenment, empathy, humanity? These are matters of the spirit, not the spreadsheet'.
