The DFE Message…
Key Questions for Schools
Why School Direct? Are you fully aware of the
implications?
The TA Message…
“If it wasn’t for fees and loans, universities wouldn’t be involved in School Direct”
(TA Officer, 2011)
Key Question for HEIs
Why does School Direct need HEIs?
An Adult Relationship?
I would suggest that the last 25 years have now put us in a position where it is possible to imagine a proper more adult relationship between the universities and the profession; a relationship that recognises and values the complexity of and partiality of different forms of professional knowledge but that sees ‘the practical’ as needing to be in the lead. (John Furlong, “Does the Teaching Profession Still Need Universities?”, 2008)
