  • Riassunto

  • This week the gents are joined by Neil Sheldon, Chair of the Teaching Statistics Trust, Fellow of the RSS and a Chartered Statistician Vice-Chair of the UK Linguistics Olympiad and Member of the Committee for Linguistics in Education. A teacher of pupils aged from 9yrs to 90yrs he's a fascinating and well informed colleague in the way statistics are used in society and particularly in education. Neil kicks off with a reflection on how we were connected through the work of Dr Dennis Sherwood and the accuracy of examination results. He explains how statistics is about insight rather than numbers. Stan then considers the government's response to the Coroner's Report following the tragic death of Ruth Perry. He highlights the inconsistencies and vagueness of their response. Neil then explains the enjoyment he gained from reading 'All that remains' by Sue Black. This is a reflection on questions or mortality by a professor of anatomy and forensic anthropology, who works in war and disaster zones, As Neil indicates it is a gripping and fascinating read. Frank then reveals the launch of The Alternative Big Listen which is an attempt to discover the views of professionals about Ofsted's work. It launches on 1 May. The chat ends with Neil reflecting on what he would change in education if he had the power. He focuses on the need to ensure all those reviewing data have a clear understanding of what it means. A riveting chat.
