BIBLIOTECAS PUBLICAS
A propósito de la decisión de cerrar una serie de bibliotecas públicas en el Reino Unido, en el diario Independent de hoy hay un artículo que recoge los testimonios de muchas personas que vieron cambiar sus vidas al ser usuarios de una de esas bibliotecas. Este es el enlace. Sin duda un buen motivo para alentar a nuestros alumnos a poner mayor interés en las facilidades de lectura que nuestra biblioteca pone a su disposición.

EDUCACION PRIMARIA
En el Reino Unido hay toda una controversia sobre los planes educativos y evaluaciones que deben hacerse a los escolares de 6 años. El artículo completo se encuentra en este vínculo.
El documento oficial será publicado mañana, pero por el momento hay este adelanto del cronograma de evaluaciones:
The testing timetable
* Today's children will first be observed by teachers at the ages of four and five on a range of issues, such as their communications skills and whether or not they can count to 10.
* Under the Government's new plans, they will also face a "phonics-based" reading check when they are six.
* They then have a national curriculum assessment in English and maths. These are no longer externally marked tests.
* At the age of 11, when they are preparing to leave primary school, the children sit external tests in English and maths for their national curriculum SATs.
* Once they reach secondary school, they sit their GCSEs at the age of 16, AS-levels (worth half an A-level) at 17 and then full A-levels at 18.
