In today’s completely nonsensical world, today our 9 year old said glumly over breakfast “The teachers have said we’ve got to do extra work today, because we didn’t do any learning yesterday”
I asked what he meant. “Well, yesterday was obviously world book day, so we just spent the day reading, so today we have to catch up on the learning we would have done”
Just….what? #school #education

On a separate but related note: anyone (ideally UK-based but not essential) doing elective home education / child-led learning? #homeed #electivehomeducation #homeschooling #unschooling

@charlottellt As if reading doesn’t count as learning? Sounds like the teachers need to schedule things a little better. 🤦♂️
