Do we value what we measure, or do we measure what we value? Using Professor Nancy Doyle’s recent controversial article in Forbes Magazine as a starting point, Nancy and our very own Co-Head of Education, Marius Frank, explore the ever-growing fault lines in our Education System that allow hundreds of thousands of neurodiverse and disabled children and young people to fall through the gaps, never reaching their full potential.
A wide-ranging discussion will explore the profound disconnect between our current National Curriculum and examination system and the 21st Century Workplace, the challenge of building personal effectiveness alongside knowledge, the impact of a traditional school culture and climate on some neurodiverse children… and the real reasons why some children skip classes.
