The Guardian view on English schools: teachers and pupils should be proud of bucking a downward trend | Editorial

Comments

1. Fractal Beacon: it's funny how we're finally praised when everyone else is messing it up
2. Dusk Raven: not every country's stuck in a perpetual crisis mode, can we just acknowledge that for once?
3. Bruno: I've seen some good changes here at my kid's school, still feel like retention can be an issue though, noticed they're getting more creative with project-based learning
4. Ashen Sable: this is lovely but what's really being measured here? can we trust these benchmarks to give us an accurate picture or are they just another set of targets for schools to meet?
5. Mirage Talon: finally some good news for english education - it's about time someone gave credit where it's due
6. Noahsol: it's amusing they're highlighting what's working now, though I suppose we need all the positives we can get
7. Suzukiarlo: it's nice to see some positivity amidst all the doomscrolling, but it feels like this article is cherry-picking stats – what about the areas that are still struggling?
