From personal experience.
I worked in UK comprehensive schools through the Thatcher and Major eras. There were many problems, but there was a culture all could understand and deal with.
From 1997 - and for 20 years afterwards, I watched the whole system skew towards pupil/parent power. Political correctness, followed by wokery became rife. Teachers were undermined at every turn. All this and more, effectively destroyed any authority and discipline schools had.
She is the most amazing person and teacher. She REALLY LOVES her pupils.
Good discipline makes better future adults.
Dear Headteacher, you just brought back some great memories.
Discipline is one of the most important part of good teaching.
The system worked for me, and today, I am proud of what it
did for my adult life.. We need this kind to return in our schools.
Excellent. Keep going Madam!
Children thrive when they know, without doubt, where the boundaries are! Leave them without direction and they will wander aimlessly and make up their own rules, rules that are poorly constructed and lacking in consistency!
Love the Michaela ethos.
Great to see that there are head teachers like this around to set an example to others. You need to be strong in character and moral values to make this work, this lady has them and I hope the film gets a wide audience.
Katherine is an extraordinary teacher.
Looks pretty good, like when I was at school.
O how refreshing, a bit of good old teaching.
I pray that tue court rules in this brilliant woman's favor!
Just like my education in the 50s and 60s. Good preparation for our future that I successfully and profitably negotiated.
My son went to Wembley manor junior school.headmistress was strict n helpful.we had wonderful time for four yes.Thanks from the bottom of our heart to British people.I always felt we have a special bond with Britain.We lived at oakington Ave near Wembley park tube.
Make this great woman a dame!!
If I'm not home schooling, I'm moving to the UK to send my kid to her school. They have the right idea.
What a fantastic woman. Good discipline and direction is I think what many children these days need.
There is no critical thinking, without self discipline.
There is no self discipline, if you dont teach discipline.
Its not just about the tools we use.
It is also about the environment in which they are used.
Sounds awesome. When are the other schools going to learn from her?
She is amazing and she needs to show others how it’s done
Can we view the documentary somewhere on the internet?
If there were an Ely branch of the KB Appreciation Society I'd lead the queue to join
A great Head Teacher, and I echo those who have, like me, taught in comprehensive schools during the 70s and 80s where discipline was appalling because of parent and pupil power. I would, however, like to see evidence of what Michaela School is doing in the performance arts. What are Michaela choirs, orchestras, guitar groups, pianists, stage productions, instrumental teachers etc getting up to? Let's see some evidence of how these curriculum areas are doing.
I can see why she's a lightening rod for controversy
Interesting dialogue.
May I suggest, regarding subjects for boys and girls, Ms KB reads the Kering Foundation's/Global Boyhood Initiative? If I remember rightly, she suggested, under this overarching, 'umbrella' issue, that girls were able to access their emotions, whereas boys were not, due to genetic differences? If she consults the former-mentioned, recent 'output' of the recommended organizations, I think she will discover that, in their opinion, such an ability is a skill rather than inherent.
I'm glad I left school in 1990. While the discipline wasnt always great (a few of the teachers couldn't control a class) we didnt have all the nonsense they have today.
Can someone please tag me in the documentry
It is truly the old fashion education that made the great things that we are destroying today. No everything should involve.
Should evolve ( sorry)
So true.
Surreal, still, to have to fight for something that is indisputable.
negative speech is never help full.
Is it negative to say no?.
What's that? a school that teaches kids discipline? that's a foreign concept to most of the western world unfortunately. Is this the worst footage they could come up with? You'd think they were talking about a concentration camp the way the caption and narrator describes this place. Un-fucking-believable. I know for a fact, that a lot of parents will send their kids to this school for the very reason they are condemning this school.
All these teachers acting like they are more than just fancy babysitters discouraging independent thinking
exactly
