Some teachers tell me that not every student can achieve 5A*-C in EN&MA.
I disagree.
Try this experiment.
Think about any mainstream student you know currently in Year 9 or lower who you believe CANNOT achieve 5A*-C inc EN&MA.
Now imagine I give you £1m to spend on that student.
Imagine also that I promise you another £1m to keep for yourself if that student achieves 5A*-C inc EN&MA.
Do you think you could get them to achieve it?
I do.
The issue is not whether every student can achieve 5A*-C inc EN&MA but whether they can within the resources that are available.
It makes you think, doesn't it?
Might it suggest it's not just resources but how we use them and how much time we allow students to grasp concepts
