The Big Listen and School Grade Chaos

This chapter offers a humorous yet candid critique of the term 'big listen' and its place in educational discourse, likening it to pointless corporate jargon. It also reflects on the chaos stemming from a leaked announcement about the potential abolition of the Ofsted grading system and the frustrations it evokes among educators. Through personal anecdotes and comedic insights, the speakers explore the implications of rapid policy changes in schooling and the absurdities of assessment methods.
