Pisa survey asks 15-year-olds how they feel about their life.Pupils in the UK are among the unhappiest in the world, according to new data from the Programme for International Student Assessment (Pisa).In the "snapshot of students' life satisfaction", the UK was ranked 38th out of 48 countries, with 15-year-olds ranking their life satisfaction at 6.98 on average on a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 is the worst possible life and 10 is the best possible life.Pupils in the Dominican Republic, Mexico and Costa Rica all rated their life satisfaction as more than 8 out of 10.

Regional disparities could hamper efforts to turn around struggling schools

NFER researchers question whether some regional schools commissioners have the capacity to help schoolsDisparities between the number of under-performing schools in different parts of the country could hamper efforts to support them in some regions, a new report has warned.An analysis by the National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER), published today, found that 21.2 per cent of schools in the East Midlands and the Humber were under-performing, compared to 16.1 per cent in the North of England.The authors said this highlighted the different challenges faced by the eight regional school commissioners (RSCs), who are responsible for taking action when schools are not good enough.Number of under-performing schools variesThey said: "These disparities in workload could affect the RSCs' ability to tackle under-performance as effectively as is needed.”The report added: "There are differences between RSC regions in the number of schools with serious under-performance issues."Lancashire and West Yorkshire has the most with 109 such schools, which is more than double the lowest RSC region, South East England and south London, which has only 50."The study found that, overall, the number of schools with low Ofsted ratings, or who are falling below the floor standard, has dropped since RSCs first took up office in 2014, although it is unclear if this is due to the introduction of these commissioners or other factors.Schools were considered under-performing if they were judged by Ofsted to be inadequate or requiring improvement, if they fell below the government's floor standard, or if they met the government's definition of a "coasting" school.The report also found stark differences in the capacity of multi-academy trusts to expand and take on the most seriously struggling schools.

How to make mixed ability work

Teaching mixed ability classes can be challenging, but one primary teacher suggests that allowing children to take control of their own learning could be the answerBack when I was a dewy-eyed NQT, children were routinely labelled as being lower, middle or higher ability from as early as five years old.They were slotted into aptly-named groups, such as circles, squares, triangles, pentagons and hexagons. “The more sides and corners, the more brains,” an older teacher explained to me.Needless to say, at every parents’ evening there were a string of middle-class parents wanting to know why their child was not a hexagon. Heaven forbid they were a circle: the group usually populated by children from underprivileged backgrounds, or with special educational needs.It was also regular practice in many schools to assign the circles, or equivalent group, to work with the (usually unqualified) teaching assistant, while the other groups had the undivided attention of the teacher. What’s more, it was rare for these children to move groups, or have the opportunity to do the same tasks as other groups.If the odds in life were already set against poor kids, schools certainly didn’t help to address the issue here.

Phonics leads to easier, more accurate, reading

Linking symbols to sounds helped adults learn to read unfamiliar scriptsLearning to read through phonics leads to more accurate reading aloud and comprehension than focusing on whole words, new research reveals.Researchers from Royal Holloway, University of London, tested the effectiveness of phonics by training adults to read in a new language, printed in unfamiliar symbols, and then measured their learning with reading tests and brain scans.They found that people who are taught the meanings of whole words did not have any better reading comprehension skills than those who are primarily taught using phonics, and that those taught using phonics were better at reading aloud.'Brains had to work harder'They also found that the brains of adults who had learnt to decipher the symbols by a whole-words method had to work harder when they read, compared to the brains of people using phonics.Professor Kathy Rastle, head of the psychology department at Royal Holloway, said: "The results were striking; people who had focused on the meanings of the new words were much less accurate in reading aloud and comprehension than those who had used phonics, and our MRI scans revealed that their brains had to work harder to decipher what they were reading”.There has been a major push to introduce phonics into English schools. Phonics is part of the National Curriculum and a phonics check is taken by pupils at the end of Year 1.The check involves pupils reading aloud 40 words, including 20 non-words, to their teacher.In 2016, 81 per cent of pupils reached the expected standard of 32 correct words in the phonics check, up from 77 per cent in 2015.But there has been concern that the focus on phonics may not help all children - particularly older readers who are struggling and children with special educational needs.
