Great post on curriculum coherence across phases from Jon.
Getting collaborative work with feeders on subject curricula is challenging & ongoing: it has opportunity cost issues but the benefits of a small gain in coherence & cross phase understanding may be worth pursuing.

Lots of teachers that work with leaders that blame individual teachers for poor results are anxious during the summer holiday.
The environment in which teachers work has a significant impact on results.

I'm with Mark on this.
Schools (to varying degrees of success) do (try to) teach critical evaluation.
If the claim is this is the solution, nothing will change. We also need to think about how to change adults.

My concern is schools have been trying to do this for decades. This is only meaningful if it moves beyond saying to do it and towards guidance on how to do it better.
"Get schools to teach X" can end up being a useful way of avoiding meaningful societal change.
