It 8pm. Time for #ukedchat with @jamesmichie discussing Starting with a blank piece of paper: Design the school of your dreams. And we're off! #ukedchat Starting with a blank piece of paper: Design the school of your dreams. So, to begin I wish to consider learning, assessment & the people involved. #ukedchat @urban_teacher Agreed, so how would you change things? #ukedchat RT @ukedchat: It 8pm. Time for #ukedchat with @jamesmichie discussing Starting with a blank piece of paper: Design the school of your dreams. @jamesmichie My dream secondary curriculum would involve learning that isn't bound by subject divisions #ukedchat This #ukedchat is irresistible where do we start? RT @ukedchat: If you are joining #ukedchat tonight, make sure you unprotect your tweets and use the #ukedchat hashtag. RT @ukedchat: It 8pm.

I'd get rid of desks. They are so cumbersome and replace them with laptops! #ukedchat

How do you envision your curriculum? #ukedchat #ukedchat generally assess children when the learning is finished not always according to preset moments in time @ePaceonline Its such a huge topic. Focussing on curriculum first? Surely everything has to be designed around the learning #ukedchat Classes would be limited to 15 students, more creative aspect to learning, less test, less politics and more real life experie. #ukedchat Great topic tonight #ukedchat A classroom with a glass floor fitted with a tropical aquarium #bit80s #ukedchat One that isn't overloaded with assessment for the sake of assessment so we can spend time planning and delivering great lessons #ukedchat @eslweb Just laptops? Not iPads? Surely there's a time and place to put the tech down? #ukedchat @nohandsup @jamesmichie #ukedchat Yes, if we could escape the tyranny of silo teaching without losing the rigour of subject specifics I would like it to have classrooms with desks, bean bags, carpet for circle time, and a loft chill out zone #ukedchat and I teach secondary!

@jamesmichie ...And iPads & Kindles too! #ukedchat @Thessaily Not sure I agree. I want less planning, more AfL & more student-led learning. #ukedchat #ukedchat Teacher + TA in every class; no more than 30 children from Rec-Y6; automatic barriers when Ofsted approach; early finish Friday. Want school to reflect the working world outside an institution #ukedchat #TMClevedon is 2 weeks today & 90 educators from all sectors have already signed up.

Do you have an url? #ukedchat @nohandsup So a curriculum built around PBL? Do others agree? #ukedchat Chuck out 19th cent factory ideas which reward blind obedience, obsess over uniform & divide kids into factory fodder or manager #ukedchat My 8 year old won't go to bed cos after joining in 3 weeks ago she wants to tonight... hope u don't mind a few thoughts from her #ukedchat RT @jamesmichie: @Thessaily Not sure I agree.

#ukedchat An examination system that recognised effort and application - not just attainment #ukedchat I'd get rid of classes #ukedchat as cross-curricular as possible #ukedchat One of the biggest impacts would be reduction of contact time to 50%,allowing collaboration between educators and PD. #ukedchat #ukedchat Curriculum needs to be flexible enough to suit all learners. Currently teaching bottom set Y10 with 11 students. Its wonderful, I can give them so much direct input Making loads of progress. #ukedchat @Spenceict exactly assessment should enhance learning and not be seen as a necessary evil #ukedchat @Jon_Torbitt That's exactly my vision. We are all learners! #ukedchat @super_sixfive definitely...it helps towards mastering any task. #ukedchat #ukedchat one of the things some of my young carers asked for was a "caring room" where children that needed time out were cared about..

Windows. Shared space. Swimming Pool. A stage. Variety of teaching rooms. Adult workspaces. #ukedchat Sports Days have to be competitive and include staff race, parents race and wheelbarrow; iPads for all teachers. "@davidhunter: One of the biggest impacts would be reduction of contact time to 50%.....big progress could be made then #ukedchat" #ukedchat Linear exams will improve T+L as teachers will have more time to focus on delivering learning. @nohandsup Agreed, and assessed based on description rather than grades and levels. #ukedchat @raisechildrens We've started a room at ours during lunch where children can go to be with a TA for support/games #ukedchat @jamesmichie @jon_torbitt a mutually beneficial learning environment has got to be a great thing all round #ukedchat You should not be able to buy a better

well-resourced (literary, ICT, etc.); meditation taught; lots of green spaces @tmeeky Good idea.
