The strange reality that it's #pincher that'll bring this administration down, not #russiareport or #suegrayreport #coviddeaths #collapsingeconomy #failedCOPdelivery or any of the #partygate revelations.
Shame on them all.

This thing happening in #Gru movies - sounds a lot like a tame version of Rocky Horror audience participation? Maybe they need organise to see it only after bedtime / 8pm and support this kind of event viewing!

5 - worst of all, the risk of schools adopting these resources wholesale seems to be something the DfE are not concerned about - but they expect Ofsted to punish schools that do not adapt them enough.
They described the resources as being in line with govt policy. So - be afraid!

3 - The DfE want to 'stimulate' the market - and want an open procurement process that'll follow the standards of other government processes. A low bar indeed.
4 - There should be resources ready by next Autumn - Sept 23.

So, what did I learn about the ALB - the evolution from Oak National - from DfE webinar - a thread:
1 - The vision is for an offer far more comprehensive than Oak!
2- They haven't really though through the IP and international access issues through. A massive fail! (#OER ?)

Where is the protest?
Where is the #RussiaReport ?
Where are the voices of unity?
Why are we so passive in the face of this increasingly oppressive 'government'?
When is the #GeneralStrike ?

Highly recommended for thinking about 'decolonising' the local curriculum and schools enabling positive change
