The theme of Femi and Matt's discussion in this episode is “things that schools could get rid of - or at least do less of”. While it is rarely the case that these ‘things’ are totally ineffective, more likely they are effective to some degree, but in the cost-benefit analysis do they meet the threshold of being effective enough to justify our time? Could they be culled in order to allow us to spend more time doing things that are even more effective?
With no subject specific element to this topic, and colleagues from all walks will hopefully enjoy the discussion.
