What am I reading?
I have both read and written extensively on education.
The list of recommendations is vast and varied but there are a few I always come back to and would urge you to look at. The first is probably the most misrepresented of all the books I have come across but I believe, though dated, that it still reads and speaks for education now, just as much as it should have when published. A government report from 1967 and available online, 'Plowden, B (1967) Children and their Primary Schools: A report of the Central Advisory Council for Education Volume 1: Report, London, HMSO.'
What School Could Be | Ted Dintersmith.
The Fourth Industrial Revolution | Klaus Schwab.
Storytelling is...
in my opinion, a dying art. I love reading to children, seeing the look on their faces as they encounter new worlds. Roll on the summer, back in the van, reading The Salt Path - Raynor Winn, to my partner.
