These forms tell students to list the ‘strengths’ of members of staff.
Other schools use questionnaires, which ask pupils to consider whether they are ‘treated fairly and equally’ by teachers.
They can tick boxes including ‘always’, ‘usually’, ‘occasionally’, ‘never’ and ‘not sure’ and complete ‘one star and a wish’.
This involves awarding a teacher ‘one star for something they are doing well’ and ‘one wish for something you would like them to do even better’.
Mrs Keates added: ‘We’ve had practices ranging from children sitting at the back of classrooms, watching teachers with check lists, to unacceptable covert practices where children have been identified before a lesson starts by management.
‘They’ve been given a form to fill in, with no consultation with the teacher at all that the practice is going on, and in fact it’s only being discovered when the teacher asks the child why they’re not concentrating on the work in hand.’
When there is no out and out marxism in place, you must revert to tried and trusted methods - 'divide and rule'.
Do these total idiots not see what will happen - the teachers who are: thorough, insistent on the completion of homework, disciplinarian, effective but not as exciting as last night's computer game will all be marked by down by the many pupils who are not sufficiently mature to get the big picture? Likes and dislikes remove the element of neutrality!Any school that did this to me would get what I was paid for and not a minute more of my time. Personal help to pupils excepted, of course!
(Ironically perhaps, I would probably do better on an immoral scheme like this than with a straight OFSTED inspection.)
