There’s actually quite a complicated issue here about who does and should have access to information at the point where it is investigatory and nothing has been firmly evidenced/decided either way, and it’s not at all clear how this legislative proposal would actually work in practice.

Death by Marking - Who is it Really For?: The Morning Break with Liz Webb and Rachel Gilyeat | Teachers Talk Radio
Burdensome workload is the constant cry of teachers, and marking is so often front and centre of the tasks which weigh us down. Why are we still so obsessed with written feedback? Is it really for the students? Or is it about accountability and box ticking?

At St James’ Church at Cooling in Kent are still to be seen the 13 children’s graves surrounding that of their parents that inspired Dickens to write the opening chapter of Great Expectations.
I guess even the folk memory of the huge mortality of childbirth and early life is now disappearing.

My conversation with Keziah Featherstone hit me right in my rebel heart. I cannot cope with the flat packed Ikea version of leadership. Real leadership takes courage, clarity, messiness, and a bit of rebellion.

I'm not sure what the difference between some of the terms used in this article is.
Isolation and seclusion just sound the same. And there is not clarity as to what 'removal' is.
Most schools i have worked in would 'remove' a pupil to another classroom for the remainder of a lesson for behaviour?
