Tomorrow evening it’ll be my annual duty to vaguely shepherd the activity on the #duvetknowitschristmas hashtag and urge people to give small sums to charity. 7.30pm? Something like that?

Should teachers be steering their students towards the type of reading that is in the exam? Or should the exam better reflect the challenges of curriculum reading?
15.03.2025 16:35 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0The reading materials analysed were new primary data, collected from small samples of students' actual independent and curriculum reading. Whilst independent reading had a greater diversity of vocabulary, the curriculum materials had more abstract and conceptual vocabulary.
