Really enjoying it. In his typical straightforward style, Freddie is busy rubbishing some old nostrums such as “what you believe you can achieve“ and “ if the students failed to learn, the teacher failed to teach,” with a focus on the idea that education outcomes are relatively plastic over time in the aggregate. Looking forward to his ideas about what to do with that.
