Researches in School Effectiveness at Primary Stage. Papers are invited on the above theme. Radio Four is producing a series of three education forums to be broadcast from the Institute next month. Each forum will be chaired by the presenter Edward Stourton. A panel of four experts will speak for and against the motion, before opening the discussion to the audience.
Teachers are the villains, rather than the victims of the education system.
Monday 14 December 15.30 - 17.00. Education must be valued for its own sake, not because it supplies the workforce of the future. Friday 18 December 15.30 - 17.00. Laying down the law is the way to raise standards in schools. We are looking for a limited number of staff and students to take part in one or more of the forums.
