Fuck me, Train a child by withholding food?

Woman's a cunt.

Not only a cunt, but a dangerous cunt to boot.

I'll go further.
This is called operant conditioning, it's used in psychological and animal studies. Remember Skinner and the pigeons, or Pavlov and the cats?

They were trained by rewards. Not punishment.

This would not get past an ethics committee.

She has been blabbing to the Mail about how Labour are planning to undermine her discipline methods.

Britain's 'strictest headteacher' slams Labour plans to soften measures designed to tackle bad behaviour in classrooms

This really is utter bollox. I work in a school that relies heavily on putting kids in isolation and detentions and it simply doesn't work. Whilst it gets disruptive students out of classrooms quickly it does actual deal with the root causes of the disruptive behaviour. In some cases it actually makes things worse because lots of students miss lots of lessons so when they finally return to lessons they haven't got a clue about what is going on in lessons.

Our headteacher often brags about how we have turned students around but I really struggle to think of a single student who has gone from disruptive to well behaved as a result of the schools discipline methods. I reckon in the last 3 years since the trust took over around 30 students have been excluded, given managed moves to other schools in the trust or they are being educated at home.

If you want kids to do well you have to like them and make school a welcoming place.

That's it.

I can believe she wasn’t a Conservative judging by her online culture war shit stirring, UKIP more likely.

Forcing kids to learn useless crap like fronted adverbials while mucking around with their grades and sticking them in falling down buildings was the right thing?

Get this performance artist away from the kids fucking pronto.

Also, her style of writing reminded me of the novel E, by Matt Beaumont, and this reply to a character who communicates in the same style:

You haven't changed a bit, have you?

You're still writing.

In those. Very.

Short.

Paragraphs in the vague.

Hope.

That this will lend your.

Words more.

Profundity.

Than they actually.

Possess.

Never a conservative she says

I do expect these grifters to drift off into obscurity now their party has lost power.

As well as being disingenuous to the nearly to the point of lying. I'm assuming she is not a member of the Tory Pary, so 'not a Conservative', but is a Tory in every other way; she is pretty poor at fundamental research.
I found this graph showing changes in child poverty from 2014 to 2021. The UK is the worst in the EU and OECD countries.




I'm not sure of the quality of the data, but it seems to be from UNICEF.

This is quite funny. Follow the thread through. Katherine's speechless once she realises that her two positions (zero tolerance of anti-Semitism and free speech within the law) are incompatible.

Look at this. Blokes attacking a mosque and the police aren't far right. Real issue is "failure of multiciulturalism".

Letter to the board of governors, I think.

Birbalsingh's suggestion that multi-culturalism has failed is Southport simply does not stand up to scrutiny. There have been lots of pictures today of the community pulling together helping to repair damage at the Mosque and local shops.

The police and community leaders are adamant that the bulk of the rioters were not locals. If had been a genuinely local protests why was it just pissed up men doing the rioting?

A comment comes from someone who has never stepped a foot near Southport, that much is obvious.

Never set a foot outside the little world that she has created for herself

This really ought to lead to disciplinary action by the board of governors. I expect some of them would be very happy to see the back of her anyway.

Time for an enterprising journalist to dig a little deeper.

Is hurling bricks and bins at the local police a suitable aspiration for alumni of the Michela school?

Yeah, Kathy. They attacked a mosque because brown and black people all look the same.

Setting aside the fact she'd have a nuclear hissy fit if she didn't get "Outstanding"; two phrases stand out. I'm sure Ruth Perry's family appreciate her sympathy

"Good heads remain as heads or executive heads."

BUT, abolishing judgements because of leaders 'feeling bad' is a nod in the wrong direction. It is an indulgence of the tyranny of 'feelings being more important than facts'.
