The Death Of The Classroom

I’m a little gob smacked and a little jealous at the news from the BBC that Knowsley council on Merseyside plan to abolish the classroom and timetable as we know it and turn all 7 of their secondary schools into learning centers personalised to each pupil.

It seems that this sort of revolution in how our schools and our learning is organised has been talked about for a very long time, to finally see a Council willing to make the leap of faith is heartening.

It will be interesting to see how this plan fairs after the teaching unions have had their say!
