Talking truth to power
It seems to me that there is a widespread problem here.
Not just in this project, or in this type of endeavour.
Our Lords and Masters seem to be pretty much allergic to hearing that their pet ideas won't work and voices of disagreement are marginalised.
We seem to be living in an age of confirmation bias, where personal preference is substituted for reality, with "evidence" being selected to fit.
Is there any proof that making all schools academies will improve anything? Of course not.
Were local education authorities a bad thing? Not usually.
And so on. ( And not just in education, but that's my field).
Biting the hand that feeds IT
