You highlight a real problem - one of the
Inspectors picked
up with me
Social
Education Course fits in IV and V year
options and it’s really to create an environ-
ment for some kids for 4 or 5 periods a week
that they can manage because in lots of the
courses they have to do - they’re all examin-
ation courses you know - they can’t cope
and they’re continually reminded that they’re
failures. The inspector said to me ’Fine,
you’ve got that situation - an environment
they can manage, how do you know that you’re
developing - how do you take them beyond
that’ and he was raising the problem of how
you evaluate what you
diate kind of value
you’ve been doing.

You can see the kids
staff have enjoyed it,

not easy but its possible - it partly is
by showing them what can be done and that
you’re going to be -

So I think I have to make a
mine - because they can role
work with themes
they can do
departure with
play, they can
really sophis-
ticated things .
