My latest post on how to write a coherent pupil premium strategy

This strikes me as obvious, no?
New research from MIT found that those who used ChatGPT can’t remember any of the content of their essays.
Key takeaway: the product doesn’t suffer, but the process does. And when it comes to essays, the process *is* how they learn.

It's becoming very obvious that generative AI is making all forms of non-exam assessment totally obsolete.
It's a threat to the integrity of education everywhere.
It's not that hard to solve though - we just need more handwritten & in-person exams!

To be honest, I’m struggling a bit with this latest edition. It seems unnecessarily wordy to me and I’m not really clear who it’s aimed at.

So, I have nearly 500 copies of Where the World Ends available to the highest bidder. Actually they are FREE, but you would need to arrange collection from me in Sutton. 330 are brand new and the rest are in very good condition. Any takers? Maybe send me a DM.
