> Submissions - how to submit evidence
We are sure that we shall receive submissions from individual teachers and parents/carers. Indeed, the first submissions reached us within a few hours of the Primary Review’s launch on 13 October.
But some teachers may need encouragement, while others, and many parents/carers, won’t yet have heard about the Review. As for children, it’s their future which is at stake, yet all too often adults presume to speak for them. Fortunately, the current interest in pupil/student voice is helping people to realise that children are better learners when they understand what their education is about.
There are several ways that teachers can contribute to the Primary Review, and can help parents/carers and children to do so as well. Here are some possibilities:
• Submit evidence individually.
• Discuss the issues with colleagues and put together a collective submission, whether from a group of like-minded teachers, a school staff or even a cluster of schools.
• Bring parents/carers into the discussion and either send in a combined parent-teacher submission or encourage them to submit their own.
• Involve children in the process as part of their education and ensure that we hear from them too.
Although the deadline for submissions has passed, please get in touch if you have further ideas or evidence you believe we should know about: contact details are here.
