- I love this. And I believe the manuscript of this passage is the only example we have of Shakespeare's handwriting.

- My fears with oracy were always: - promotes deficit narratives, especially around race and class - is really about debunked approaches like enforced group work and 21st century skills This seems to enthusiastically double down on both, plus makes some wild claims about the attainment gap, and AI.
