  1. Teacher's worried about offstead reports and stressing about inspections aren't living up to the standards the other 189 days of the school year. If they were there wouldn't be any stress since it'd be business as usual!

  2. Vacuous argument, the first point is suggesting that because there was no concern previously there should be none now. The second point regarding private schools is a tiny fraction of the populous.

  3. It's bonkers – we're going to slide back down the PISA tables. As a lectuder I'm going ro have to pick this lot up. Edycation was te only thing Tories got right. Labour are a disaster.
