Once upon a time the teaching profession was a much distinguished role that people aspired to do. Who would be a teacher or head teacher in 2015?
The Education secretary has unveiled new plans to ‘sack’ head teachers of those schools that are deemed to be ‘coasting’ just above the fail rate (Nicky Morgan - 17 May 2015, BBC News). Couple this with an increase of 200% of pupils calling the NSPCC’s ‘Childline’ for educational related counselling due to stress over examinations in 2014 (Richard Adams - 14 May 2015 The Guardian), and the scene is alarming.
This will only serve to increase the stress levels throughout our education system. As the demands increase for immediate results, the ethical stance will fall by the way-side as schools will begin to produce the results at any cost. The already stretched education system has begun to demonstrate cracks where traditional schooling is no longer a "one-size-fits-all" as reported by a FB article - Genius child banned from school for being unable to learn!
Meet Jacob Barnett on TED Talks and his unique perspective on learning.
MindLife Dynamics was created for just such a time as this. It is designed to improve the results of the school (by improving the results of the teachers and pupils) by providing a "learn to remember” process that students (and teachers) will readily grasp:
• It will Increase student learning and remembering potential by up to three times
• Create resilience amongst students particularly in stressful situations such as preparing for examinations
• Increases attendance and thirst for further development by putting the fun back into learning
• Provides confidence and vital life-skills (soft skills) in preparation for life after school
• Improves the productivity of teachers by providing a more efficient way of working
• Improves communication through a better understanding of the unique patterns of HOW the brain works.
