Does the UK education system help learners develop a love of learning, acquire life skills and develop knowledge? As High Mistress of St Paul’s Girls’ School, a high achieving independent school in London, and Co-Director of Big Education, a multi-academy trust and social enterprise, Sarah Fletcher and Peter Hyman are convinced we need to change the way we assess students in the UK. We examine the condemning data which backs the case for change, what we should be assessing and what we can do to get closer to an education of head, heart and hand.Show notes:- More about St Paul’s Girls’ School: https://spgs.org/- More about Big Education: https://bigeducation.org/- More about School 21: https://www.school21.org.uk/- HMC survey on curriculum and assessment: https://www.hmc.org.uk/blog/hmc-survey-finds-curriculum-and-assessment-is-no-longer-fit-for-purpose/

#47 Sarah Fletcher, St Paul’s Girls’ School & Peter Hyman, Big Education: No more high stakes exams?

Peter Hyman worked in No 10 as a speechwriter for Tony Blair but left government more than a decade ago with a new mission - to reset the British education system with a new philosophy. He began as a classroom assistant and worked his way up to becoming headteacher of a new school in the East End of London with a radical approach. He wanted to create a system where school wasn’t a grind and teaching children to speak was as important as teaching them to read. In this episode of the Accomplishment Podcast, Peter Hyman tells Sir Michael Barber how he got the project off the ground, the hurdles he faced along the way and what lessons can be learnt. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
