Education has had to adapt quickly and creatively since the first lockdown in March 2020, when all schools closed apart from serving the children of keyworkers and vulnerable children. Homeworking for many parents and carers has become the norm and over time schools have drawn on significant government investment and their own resources to provide a meaningful learning experience using devices and internet access as part of the education programmes. Observers have made clear that the country has progressed 5 times faster than the pre-pandemic rate of digital working and learning. Things will never be the same again. It is worth noting, however, that there remain millions of disadvantaged pupils and students without a viable home learning system either due to having no device or suitable broadband access. This is unfortunately still the case in Blackpool.
Is the Milburn Review more ambitious than the Francis Curriculum Review in terms of assessment and accountability?
I don’t wish to downplay the importance and possible impact of the Interim Diagnostic Report on Young People and Work, more commonly known as ‘The Milburn Review’ published on 28th May but we need to consider the impact of other such reviews over the years.
