the curriculum and assessment review is 197 pages long and does not make a single reference to multilingualism. in England's schools, ~20% of children (~2 million children) are multilingual. this is just another example of how multilingual identities and knowledges get erased in policy and practice.
Proud of the wide support the Curriculum and Assessment Review has attracted from across the educational spectrum.
Labour wants to set up our children for tomorrow. The work of @beckyfrancis.bsky.social and colleagues is an essential step forward in securing standards and opportunity.

Ooh - my new paper on case study is out! What’s a case study, how do you do one, how do you spot a good one? Includes niche examples like the REF impact case study (though it’s mainly about research case studies).
Calling all researchers and educators📣 This new RMR by @trishgreenhalgh.bsky.social on how to conduct effective case studies, offers guidance for using them for learning & decision-making.
Essential reading for robust research!
