It was the Conservative Party conference last week, with headline education announcements being the reform of A-Levels, teacher retention packages and a mobile phone ban for schools. We took a look at the mobile phone ban in detail last week, but what did you think of the other announcements?
The ‘Advanced British Standard’ replaces both A-Levels and T-Levels, with students studying English and Maths ‘in some form’ to 18. One-in-four of you agree with this policy, with it being marginally more popular among primary teachers. Opposition is strong, though, with 58% disagreeing, include more than two-thirds of English teachers!
