I’m here for the socially acceptable excuse to eat cheese boards on repeat classing it as being festive (pretending I don’t all year round).

It’s fine! 🙌 That is, ignoring the many tickets I’m always likely to get for accidentally being in a bus lane.

I’m so intrigued by this - and what the focus/activity was (it could be so many things!)? 🤔

Have you an example of what you’d consider to be an effective example of narrative-led approach?

Recently came across a review of this book - it may well have been your review! Looks interesting.

Some debates on:
- some have kept themes but brought in more rigour
- book-led focuses asking whether or not the book should come the term after wider curriculum content (so the context of the book is understood)
- the drive to individual subjects vs. missing out on cross curricular opportunities

Lots of discussions including:
- Terms centred around a book. But, should the book be studied the term after the content/vocab of the book's context?
- Enquiry questions that tie together all subjects
- Keeping with classic humanities-driven themes
- Wholly focused on discrete subjects

I wonder which spring to mind that have managed to avoid becoming a zombie network and instead have kept the mission alive and successfully driven real change? Agree with this and can see it apparent at every level of the education system.
