About this deal

I did visit some beautiful schools and some schools which made learning more difficult (one without walls between classrooms which seemed to distract the children), but these were atypical.

On entry, the large hallway, with a tiled floor, leads through to the good-sized living room which has a wood effect laminate flooring and a feature woodburning stove.The conservatory can be accessed from both the kitchen and the dining room and enjoys pleasant views of the rear garden whilst offering an additional reception space.

To make you feel safe and at home, Clevelands has a secure living environment, with swipe card access to the buildings and flats and a dedicated operations team. The academic progress of the world’s 15-year-olds is tested regularly by PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment). I'm aware that there is a higher incidence of wearing glasses in Singapore, and I may well mention it in the book though I probably won't make a feature of it. A spacious, well presented, 5 bedroom (1 en-suite) detached property with landscaped gardens, integral garage and ample driveway parking. Cleverlands: The secrets behind the success of the world’s education superpowers by Lucy Crehan has been named as one of The Economist’s books of the year for 2016.

There is no overall correlation between the proportion of schools doing this in a country and PISA results, so it is not an automatic good as is sometimes assumed by politicians. The chapter is particularly interesting on the role of ‘education mums’ and the sacrifices expected of them. The myth of Finland as a schooling nirvana where children play their way to academic success gently encouraged by ecstatic teachers on doctors’ salaries is—at least partly—debunked. If you love world literature, translated works, travel writing, or explorin Reading takes you places. This allows our pupils to truly flourish and thrive during their time at our school, as well as preparing them for life beyond Clevelands.

Are you going to be looking a visual accommodation in reading and the incidence of wearing glasses in different countries?

It's definitely important to consider what effect certain educational approaches seem to be having on children's happiness, and I will discuss this in the book, although it is rather a difficult relationship to come to any firm conclusions about given the difficulty in measuring both! Clevelands Wholesale was established in 1968 and has grown to become one of the UK’s largest and most respected suppliers to the trade. I read a lot of reports and studied a lot of graphs, but they didn’t give me any idea about what education actually looked like in each place, only about what policies were ‘officially’ followed (I know from experience that these are not the same thing). The chapter also includes an interesting section on Maths teaching principles and practice which is likely to be of interest to the Maths teachers amongst us.
