Reposted by EdwinaAR @psalisbury.bsky.social · 04/12/2025Hi bphillipsonmp.bluesky.social Schools are struggling. Some families have never recovered from the pandemic; social issues have been exacerbated, poverty has increased. Many kids go to home countries for extended holidays. Tell you what, let’s give them an attendance target. Good idea. 1193 0
Reposted by EdwinaAR @psalisbury.bsky.social · 04/12/2025Hi @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social Schools are struggling at the moment. 14 years of cuts have coincided with unparalleled rises in behaviour, attendance and complex SEND needs. There are no AP places and schools are barely coping. Tell you what, let’s raise the phonics target to 95%. Good idea. 2304 0
