If a school does not have a thriving PSHE programme with circle time, caring programmes, Student Voice and Pastoral Care at its heart it is a resounding failure.
Forget your learning outcomes, teaching for careers and results; it is caring for students that is the most important thing of all.
If schools do not care and nurture children we end up with a heartless, cut-throat society where the weak go under, the strong claw their way to the top and it is dog-eat-dog.
I believe every child is important.
There’s more to education than force-feeding facts for results!
