Parallel Universes at the London Festival of Education
I went to the London Festival of Education last weekend. Or at least I think I did.
You can never be quite sure because I seem to have spent most of the weekend confronting a different version of reality, one way or another, to a lot of other people.
So for instance, I thought the question and answer session with Michael Gove was, apart from a few responses to questions from the audience, largely uncontentious.
Definitely worth posting this video, I don't know this blogger, however, and have not posted it because I agree with the views in the post.
We also went to The Festival of Education-I was there as well as Anthony McCann, Tony Hall, Fred Garnett and Bridget Mckenzie. And a host of others, all the usual suspects you could say! I enjoyed visiting the IOE as I have never been there before. I went to Bridget's talk about Edgeryders and also to hear Pasi Sahlberg talking about 'Finnish Lessons'. The day kicked off with David Aaronovitch in conversation with Michael Gove which I saw in the main lecture theatre.
