Memory of once upon a time ...

Do you look back at some of the things you did in education ... then do you realise that with your current experience and knowledge of what could happen. You are likely to not take the risk and leave the idea well alone.

The few of us (all of whom are still in education somewhere), did then, what now could be considered some mad things. The irony is, whilst many centres have replicated the ideas, they have not in any way, shape, form or format managed to capture the heart of what we did.

Is this arrogance, maybe, more likely i can see the treadmill of routine often pulling some good people down.

Yet, i do see excellent ideas, from some very unlikely quarters and wonder if what was the late 90's  early 00's is coming back, but naturally in a different form. I think we have put in place some excellent tools, and as there is an emergence of new blood beginning to understand what can be accomplished. Then we get the different ideas, the rules being bent, the opportunities explored.
