Possibly our favourite ever #highperformance episode from Prof. Steve Peters "You can't build resilience, your mind is 100% resilient - the question is how do we stop resilience from failing?"

New plan for Regional Improvement Teams is out Can anyone understand it? Where's the money come from for commissioned support? What happens to schools that need intervention? Why does a school with 1 issue get universal support but a school with many get targeted support? www.tes.com/magazine/new...

DfE outlines plans for new regional improvement teams
Ofsted report cards will ‘strongly inform’ the level of regional support and intervention that schools receive from new RISE teams, the DfE said today

Until there's agreement about the purpose of education, there can't be agreement on the curriculum. I suspect Becky knows that as well as anyone but I also suspect she'd say that question was out of scope!
