Thanks, Mary, it's great to reflect on the progress made at the end of each year!

The two points about an ambitious offer regardless of children's starting point and making the curriculum accessible to all, really fill me with hope!

Thanks for commenting and yes, it's so important not to underestimate what pupils are capable of isn't it!

Excellent point Mary, and I’m definitely guilty of continuing to find fault in implementation!

However, I will still maintain that what I teach at Year 6 maths and English is more advanced than it should be, and I think there’s still work to do to get that right.

Aside from that, you’re right - thinking especially about what curriculum looked like 25 years ago, it’s staggering how much more vision and structure there is.
