"In 2018 the (Pisa) survey included a wellbeing questionnaire, which found that schoolchildren in Britain were more likely to be miserable and less likely to think their lives had meaning compared with children in many other countries. Britain ranked 69th out of 72 countries for pupils’ life satisfaction."

Are we doing education all wrong?

Computer Science fastest growing STEM subject https://www.bcs.org/articles-opinion-and-research/computer-science-fastest-growing-stem-subject/?utm_content=bufferb5cd7&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer #technology #EdTechUK ##UKEdChat

Disappointing that none of the news programmes have explained how the “comparable outcomes” exam grading works. Exams in the UK are a sorting hat not a rating against an absolute standard. Clearly unfair to score this year’s cohort who lost GCSE to pandemic against pre-covid cohorts #ukeducation #ukedchat #alevel

This is a really long, detailed report from Ofqual into the remote invigilation of exams and assessments invocational training.
It's so disappointing to see this line in the report:
"This research did not include candidates who required reasonable adjustments. Therefore, potential issues that relate to how such adjustments would interact with RI processes and systems cannot be discussed in depth within this report."

@VCE it is, but having migrated on my personal account, the first few weeks is wandering around the canteen with your lunch tray hoping to sit with nice people. Once you've found them (again), it's a far nicer experience.

So far, hashtags have been a big help. Also, capitalising your hashtags mean screen readers can read each word - it's one of the really nice aspects I've found here. Lot's of thoughtfulness for others.

@ThisMonkeyTypes Lots of education people, most of those I'm following here so far are HE, however, I'm thinking that if there was an appropriate "home" for other sectors, together or not, it would help. I'm not thinking specifically edtech (despite handle). But am thinking home for #CASchat #ofsted #ukedchat etc (many more)
