@anomalyuk@Heresy_Corner it's even possible for most to be above the arithmetic mean. Most people have more than the avg number of eyes. -
@TheEulerID@Heresy_Corner sure, OFSTED in theory measures to some absolute immutable standard of excellence. (Smothered cackle) -
@anomalyuk@Heresy_Corner if the issue is standards are inadequate, it's a point better made directly. -
@TheEulerID@Heresy_Corner it's more that it's very difficult to apply standards consistently over time. Gradual drift is almost inevitable -
@TheEulerID@Heresy_Corner the actual value of the assessments is in comparing schools. That's what they were created for. -
@TheEulerID@Heresy_Corner but in those terms, Cameron's boast is close to meaningless -
@TheEulerID@Heresy_Corner all of which is the sort of point worth making as a quick jokey barb, or not at all, IMHO. But now a mini-essay. - 5 more replies
