  today,
• 0:22
  Charlotte,
• 0:22
  Emily
• 0:23
  and
• 0:23
  I
• 0:23
  are
• 0:23
  going
• 0:23
  to
• 0:23
  be
• 0:24
  talking
• 0:24
  about
• 0:24
  one
• 0:24
  of
• 0:24
  the
• 0:25
  myths
• 0:25
  of
• 0:25
  home
• 0:25
  education.
• 0:26
  And
• 0:26
  the
• 0:26
  one
• 0:26
  we're
• 0:27
  choosing
• 0:27
  today
• 0:27
  is
• 0:28
  I'm
• 0:28
  too
• 0:28
  thick
• 0:29
  to
• 0:29
  home
• 0:29
  educate.
• 0:30
  I'm
• 0:31
  not
• 0:31
  clever
• 0:31
  enough.
• 0:32
  I
• 0:32
  don't
• 0:32
  have
• 0:32
  a
• 0:33
  teaching
• 0:33
  degree.
• 0:34
  I'm.
• 0:35
  I'm
• 0:35
  too
• 0:36
  stupid.
• 0:37
  I
• 0:37
  don't
• 0:38
  know
• 0:38
  enough
• 0:38
  stuff.
• 0:39
  And
• 0:39
  I
• 0:39
  think
• 0:39
  that
• 0:39
  that's
• 0:40
  what
• 0:40
  it
• 0:40
  boils
• 0:40
  down
• 0:40
  to,
• 0:40
  isn't
• 0:40
  it?
• 0:41
  When
• 0:41
  we
• 0:41
  talk
• 0:41
  about
• 0:41
  cleverness,
• 0:41
  I
• 0:42
  don't
• 0:42
  think
• 0:42
  people
• 0:42
  are
• 0:42
  talking
• 0:43
  about
• 0:43
  not
• 0:43
  knowing
• 0:44
  how
• 0:44
  to
• 0:44
  do
• 0:44
  stuff.
• 0:44
  I
• 0:45
  think
• 0:45
  they're
• 0:45
  talking
• 0:45
  about
• 0:46
  not
• 0:46
  knowing
• 0:47
  enough
• 0:48
  stuff.
• 0:48
  And
• 0:49
  I.
• 0:49
  One
• 0:50
  thing
• 0:50
  that.
• 0:51
  I
• 0:51
  was
• 0:51
  thinking
• 0:51
  about
• 0:51
  this
• 0:51
  before
• 0:52
  we
• 0:52
  started
• 0:52
  recording,
• 0:53
  and
• 0:53
  I
• 0:53
  was
• 0:53
  thinking
• 0:53
  about
• 0:54
  an
• 0:54
  example
• 0:54
  of
• 0:55
  why
• 0:55
  I
• 0:55
  think
• 0:57
  that
• 0:57
  actually
• 0:57
  it's
• 0:58
  worse
• 0:59
  to
• 0:59
  home
• 0:59
  educate
• 1:00
  when
• 1:00
  you're
• 1:00
  clever.
• 1:00
  Okay?
• 1:01
  So
• 1:01
  bear
• 1:01
  with
• 1:01
  me
• 1:01
  on
• 1:01
  this
• 1:02
  one.
• 1:02
  I've
• 1:02
  got
• 1:02
  a
• 1:02
  whole
• 1:02
  example
• 1:03
  in
• 1:03
  my
• 1:03
  head.
• 1:05
  Imagine
• 1:05
  a
• 1:06
  scenario
• 1:06
  where
• 1:06
  you're
• 1:07
  driving
• 1:07
  in
• 1:07
  the
• 1:07
  car
• 1:07
  with
• 1:08
  your
• 1:08
  children,
• 1:08
  they're
• 1:08
  like
• 1:09
  12,
• 1:09
  13
• 1:09
  years
• 1:10
  old,
• 1:10
  and
• 1:11
  you
• 1:11
  got
• 1:11
  the
• 1:11
  radio
• 1:12
  on
• 1:12
  and
• 1:12
  the
• 1:12
  news
• 1:12
  comes
• 1:13
  on
• 1:13
  and
• 1:13
  it
• 1:13
  says,
• 1:14
  oh,
• 1:14
  Israel
• 1:15
  has
• 1:15
  bombed
• 1:15
  Palestine.
• 1:16
  And
• 1:17
  your
• 1:17
  children
• 1:17
  look
• 1:17
  at
• 1:17
  you
• 1:18
  and
• 1:18
  they
• 1:18
  go,
• 1:18
  that
• 1:18
  sounds
• 1:18
  a
• 1:19
  bit
• 1:19
  crap.
• 1:19
  And
• 1:20
  you're
• 1:20
  like,
• 1:20
  oh,
• 1:20
  yeah,
• 1:21
  well
• 1:21
  actually
• 1:22
  I
• 1:22
  know
• 1:23
  all
• 1:23
  about
• 1:23
  this.
• 1:24
  And
• 1:24
  you
• 1:24
  start
• 1:24
  telling
• 1:25
  them,
• 1:26
  oh,
• 1:26
  well,
• 1:26
  you
• 1:26
  know,
• 1:27
  after
• 1:27
  the
• 1:27
  Second
• 1:27
  World
• 1:28
  War,
• 1:28
  the
• 1:29
  world
• 1:29
  powers
• 1:29
  decided
• 1:30
  that
• 1:30
  Israel
• 1:31
  needed
• 1:31
  a
• 1:32
  little
• 1:32
  safe
• 1:32
  place
• 1:32
  that
• 1:32
  they
• 1:33
  could
• 1:33
  call
• 1:33
  their
• 1:34
  own.
• 1:34
  And
• 1:34
  so
• 1:34
  they
• 1:35
  decided
• 1:35
  to
• 1:35
  give
• 1:35
  them
• 1:36
  back
• 1:36
  their
• 1:36
  homeland
• 1:36
  of
• 1:37
  Israel.
• 1:37
  Unfortunately,
• 1:38
  there
• 1:38
  were
• 1:38
  people
• 1:38
  who
• 1:39
  were
• 1:39
  still
• 1:39
  living
• 1:39
  there
• 1:40
  and
• 1:40
  they
• 1:40
  didn't
• 1:40
  really
• 1:41
  like
• 1:41
  that.
• 1:41
  And
• 1:42
  it
• 1:42
  ended
• 1:43
  up
• 1:43
  that,
• 1:43
  you
• 1:43
  know,
• 1:43
  the
• 1:43
  Palestinians
• 1:44
  were
• 1:44
  like
• 1:44
  shoved
• 1:45
  off
• 1:45
  their
• 1:45
  land
• 1:45
  and
• 1:46
  they
• 1:46
  were
• 1:46
  made
• 1:46
  to
• 1:46
  live
• 1:46
  in
• 1:46
  tents.
• 1:47
  And
• 1:47
  then
• 1:47
  Israel
• 1:48
  kind
• 1:48
  of
• 1:48
  like
• 1:48
  kept.
• 1:49
  Had
• 1:49
  a,
• 1:49
  like
• 1:50
  five
• 1:50
  day
• 1:50
  war
• 1:50
  or
• 1:51
  something.
• 1:51
  And
• 1:51
  then
• 1:51
  they
• 1:51
  tried
• 1:52
  to
• 1:52
  take
• 1:52
  extra
• 1:53
  land.
• 1:53
  And
• 1:54
  what
• 1:54
  you've
• 1:54
  done
• 1:54
  there
• 1:55
  is
• 1:55
  you've
• 1:55
  given
• 1:55
  them
• 1:56
  your
• 1:57
  knowledge
• 1:58
  of
• 1:58
  the
• 1:58
  event
• 1:59
  because
• 1:59
  you're
• 2:00
  clever
• 2:00
  in
• 2:00
  inverted
• 2:01
  commas.
• 2:01
  And
• 2:01
  then
• 2:01
  I
• 2:02
  was
• 2:02
  thinking,
• 2:02
  okay,
• 2:02
  what
• 2:02
  about
• 2:02
  a
• 2:03
  scenario
• 2:03
  where
• 2:03
  you
• 2:03
  don't
• 2:03
  know
• 2:04
  any
• 2:04
  of
• 2:04
  that
• 2:04
  stuff
• 2:05
  and
• 2:05
  you're
• 2:05
  in
• 2:05
  the
• 2:05
  car
• 2:06
  and
• 2:06
  your
• 2:06
  child
• 2:06
  says
• 2:06
  to
• 2:07
  you,
• 2:08
  yeah,
• 2:08
  exactly
• 2:08
  right.
• 2:09
  And
• 2:09
  your
• 2:09
  child
• 2:09
  says
• 2:09
  to
• 2:10
  you,
• 2:10
  oh,
• 2:10
  okay,
• 2:10
  like
• 2:10
  that
• 2:11
  sounds
• 2:11
  a
• 2:11
  bit
• 2:11
  crap.
• 2:11
  Israel,
• 2:12
  Palestine.
• 2:12
  And
• 2:12
  you
• 2:13
  go,
• 2:13
  yeah,
• 2:13
  I
• 2:14
  don't
• 2:14
  know,
• 2:14
  I
• 2:14
  don't
• 2:14
  know
• 2:14
  anything
• 2:15
  about
• 2:15
  that.
• 2:15
  Why
• 2:15
  don't
• 2:15
  you
• 2:15
  go
• 2:16
  on
• 2:16
  Wikipedia
• 2:16
  and
• 2:17
  have
• 2:17
  a
• 2:17
  look?
• 2:17
  And
• 2:18
  then
• 2:18
  you
• 2:18
  go
• 2:18
  on
• 2:18
  Wikipedia
• 2:19
  and
• 2:19
  they're
• 2:19
  like,
• 2:19
  that's
• 2:19
  really
• 2:19
  interesting.
• 2:20
  And
• 2:20
  then
• 2:20
  you
• 2:20
  find
• 2:20
  yourself
• 2:21
  a
• 2:21
  couple
• 2:21
  of
• 2:21
  decent
• 2:22
  YouTube
• 2:22
  videos
• 2:22
  that
• 2:23
  tell
• 2:23
  you
• 2:23
  about
• 2:23
  It.
• 2:23
  And
• 2:23
  then
• 2:24
  maybe
• 2:24
  you
• 2:24
  say,
• 2:24
  let's
• 2:24
  go
• 2:25
  to
• 2:25
  the
• 2:25
  library
• 2:25
  and
• 2:25
  see
• 2:25
  if
• 2:26
  they've
• 2:26
  got
• 2:26
  any
• 2:26
  books
• 2:26
  on
• 2:26
  it.
• 2:27
  And
• 2:27
  that
• 2:27
  way
• 2:28
  your
• 2:28
  children
• 2:28
  have
• 2:29
  accessed
• 2:30
  that
• 2:30
  information,
• 2:31
  not
• 2:32
  through
• 2:32
  you.
• 2:33
  And
• 2:33
  here's
• 2:33
  my
• 2:34
  controversial
• 2:34
  take.
• 2:35
  I
• 2:35
  think
• 2:35
  that
• 2:35
  if
• 2:35
  your
• 2:36
  inadverted
• 2:36
  comma
• 2:36
  is
• 2:37
  clever,
• 2:38
  then
• 2:38
  your
• 2:39
  inclination
• 2:40
  is
• 2:40
  to
• 2:42
  get
• 2:42
  your
• 2:43
  child
• 2:43
  to
• 2:43
  access
• 2:44
  that
• 2:44
  information
• 2:44
  through
• 2:45
  your
• 2:45
  information
• 2:45
  about
• 2:46
  something.
• 2:46
  And
• 2:47
  if
• 2:47
  you
• 2:47
  don't
• 2:47
  know
• 2:47
  about
• 2:48
  something,
• 2:48
  they
• 2:49
  access
• 2:49
  it
• 2:49
  through
• 2:50
  lots
• 2:50
  of
• 2:50
  other
• 2:51
  information
• 2:51
  methods
• 2:52
  of
• 2:52
  getting
• 2:52
  the
• 2:53
  information.
• 2:53
  Ta
• 2:54
  ta.
• 2:54
  That
• 2:54
  is
• 2:55
  why
• 2:55
  I
• 2:55
  am.
• 2:56
  I
• 2:56
  have
• 2:56
  decided
• 2:57
  that
• 2:57
  in
• 2:57
  actual
• 2:58
  fact,
• 2:58
  we
• 2:58
  should
• 2:58
  all
• 2:58
  be
• 2:59
  very
• 2:59
  thick
• 2:59
  when
• 2:59
  we
• 3:00
  home
• 3:00
  educate.
• 3:00
  The
• 3:01
  thicker
• 3:01
  the
• 3:01
  better.
• 3:02
  The
• 3:02
  thicker
• 3:03
  the
• 3:03
  better.
• 3:03
  The
• 3:04
  thicker
• 3:04
  the
• 3:04
  better.
• 3:04
  That's
• 3:05
  my
• 3:05
  take,
• 3:05
  pun
• 3:06
  intended.
• 3:07
  I
• 3:08
  think
• 3:08
  that's
• 3:08
  really
• 3:08
  interesting
• 3:09
  because
• 3:09
  actually
• 3:10
  reflecting
• 3:10
  on
• 3:10
  that,
• 3:11
  I
• 3:11
  grew
• 3:11
  up
• 3:12
  with
• 3:12
  very
• 3:13
  academic
• 3:13
  parents,
• 3:14
  very
• 3:14
  intelligent,
• 3:16
  and
• 3:17
  in
• 3:17
  actual
• 3:17
  fact,
• 3:18
  I
• 3:18
  found
• 3:18
  it
• 3:18
  much
• 3:18
  harder
• 3:19
  in
• 3:20
  later
• 3:20
  life
• 3:20
  to
• 3:20
  know.
• 3:22
  I
• 3:23
  just
• 3:23
  accepted
• 3:23
  whatever
• 3:24
  they
• 3:24
  told
• 3:24
  me
• 3:25
  because
• 3:27
  they
• 3:27
  were
• 3:28
  clever.
• 3:28
  So
• 3:29
  what
• 3:29
  they
• 3:29
  told
• 3:29
  me.
• 3:30
  And
• 3:30
  so
• 3:30
  I
• 3:30
  never
• 3:31
  explored
• 3:32
  what
• 3:32
  I
• 3:33
  actually
• 3:33
  felt
• 3:33
  about
• 3:34
  things
• 3:34
  or
• 3:34
  made
• 3:34
  my
• 3:35
  own
• 3:35
  opinion
• 3:35
  about
• 3:36
  it.
• 3:36
  And
• 3:36
  I
• 3:36
  think
• 3:37
  you're
• 3:37
  absolutely
• 3:37
  right.
• 3:38
  If
• 3:38
  you
• 3:38
  feed
• 3:40
  too
• 3:40
  much
• 3:40
  to
• 3:40
  your
• 3:41
  children,
• 3:41
  you
• 3:41
  know,
• 3:42
  children,
• 3:43
  of
• 3:43
  course,
• 3:43
  you
• 3:43
  look
• 3:43
  up
• 3:44
  to
• 3:44
  your
• 3:44
  parents
• 3:44
  and
• 3:44
  what
• 3:45
  they
• 3:45
  say
• 3:46
  is
• 3:47
  gospel
• 3:47
  a
• 3:47
  lot
• 3:48
  of
• 3:48
  the
• 3:48
  time,
• 3:48
  and
• 3:48
  particularly
• 3:49
  if
• 3:49
  you
• 3:49
  think
• 3:49
  that
• 3:49
  they're
• 3:50
  cleverer
• 3:50
  than
• 3:50
  you.
• 3:51
  You
• 3:51
  know,
• 3:52
  that
• 3:52
  kind
• 3:52
  of.
• 3:53
  Let's
• 3:54
  just
• 3:54
  believe
• 3:54
  what
• 3:54
  they're
• 3:55
  saying
• 3:55
  and
• 3:55
  let's
• 3:55
  not
• 3:55
  explore
• 3:56
  it
• 3:56
  any
• 3:56
  further.
• 3:57
  And
• 3:57
  I
• 3:57
  think
• 3:57
  that's
• 3:58
  the
• 3:58
  beauty
• 3:58
  of
• 3:58
  home
• 3:59
  education
• 3:59
  is
• 3:59
  I've
• 4:00
  learned
• 4:00
  so
• 4:00
  much
• 4:01
  alongside
• 4:02
  my
• 4:02
  children.
• 4:03
  And
• 4:04
  when
• 4:04
  you
• 4:04
  can
• 4:04
  explore
• 4:05
  together,
• 4:06
  it's
• 4:07
  great
• 4:07
  because
• 4:07
  you
• 4:07
  also
• 4:08
  challenge
• 4:08
  your
• 4:08
  own
• 4:09
  beliefs
• 4:09
  and
• 4:09
  your
• 4:10
  own
• 4:10
  learnings
• 4:10
  because
• 4:11
  everything's
• 4:11
  changing
• 4:11
  all
• 4:12
  the
• 4:12
  time.
• 4:12
  And
• 4:12
  what,
• 4:12
  you
• 4:13
  know,
• 4:13
  we
• 4:13
  were
• 4:14
  taugh
• 4:14
  years
• 4:15
  ago
• 4:15
  has
• 4:16
  changed,
• 4:17
  has
• 4:17
  developed.
• 4:18
  There
• 4:18
  are
• 4:19
  new
• 4:19
  ideas,
• 4:20
  new
• 4:20
  sort
• 4:20
  of.
• 4:21
  There's
• 4:22
  just
• 4:22
  so
• 4:22
  much
• 4:23
  that
• 4:23
  we
• 4:23
  can
• 4:24
  still
• 4:24
  discover,
• 4:25
  whether
• 4:25
  you
• 4:25
  were
• 4:25
  well
• 4:26
  educated
• 4:26
  or
• 4:27
  not.
• 4:27
  And
• 4:28
  this
• 4:28
  myth
• 4:29
  that
• 4:30
  if
• 4:30
  you've
• 4:31
  got
• 4:32
  that
• 4:32
  education,
• 4:33
  therefore
• 4:34
  there's
• 4:35
  nothing
• 4:35
  you
• 4:35
  need
• 4:35
  to
• 4:35
  do
• 4:36
  other
• 4:36
  than
• 4:36
  impart
• 4:37
  your
• 4:37
  learning
• 4:38
  onto
• 4:38
  your
• 4:38
  child.
• 4:40
  That's
• 4:40
  very
• 4:40
  limiting
• 4:41
  because
• 4:41
  actually
• 4:43
  there's
• 4:43
  so
• 4:43
  much
• 4:43
  more
• 4:44
  for
• 4:44
  you
• 4:44
  to
• 4:44
  learn
• 4:44
  and
• 4:45
  to
• 4:46
  develop
• 4:48
  within
• 4:48
  your
• 4:48
  home.
• 4:48
  Educating
• 4:49
  of
• 4:49
  your
• 4:49
  children.
• 4:50
  I
• 4:50
  think
• 4:50
  limiting's
• 4:51
  the
• 4:51
  word,
• 4:51
  isn't
• 4:51
  it?
• 4:52
  Yeah,
• 4:52
  I'm
• 4:53
  that
• 4:53
  example.
• 4:56
  I
• 4:56
  didn't
• 4:56
  have,
• 4:56
  I
• 4:56
  didn't
• 4:57
  do.
• 4:57
  I
• 4:57
  did
• 4:57
  my
• 4:58
  GCSEs,
• 4:58
  but
• 4:59
  I
• 4:59
  didn't
• 4:59
  really
• 4:59
  go
• 4:59
  to
• 5:00
  school
• 5:00
  and
• 5:00
  I
• 5:00
  didn't
• 5:00
  get
• 5:00
  that
• 5:01
  many.
• 5:01
  And
• 5:01
  then
• 5:02
  I
• 5:02
  didn't
• 5:03
  really
• 5:03
  know
• 5:03
  what
• 5:03
  I
• 5:03
  wanted
• 5:04
  to
• 5:04
  do
• 5:04
  after
• 5:04
  school.
• 5:04
  And
• 5:05
  then
• 5:05
  I
• 5:05
  went
• 5:05
  to
• 5:06
  college
• 5:06
  and
• 5:06
  did
• 5:06
  hairdressing
• 5:07
  and
• 5:07
  then
• 5:07
  it
• 5:07
  wasn't
• 5:08
  until
• 5:08
  very
• 5:08
  later
• 5:09
  on
• 5:09
  that
• 5:10
  I
• 5:10
  was
• 5:10
  like,
• 5:10
  actually
• 5:10
  I
• 5:11
  really
• 5:11
  want
• 5:11
  a
• 5:11
  degree
• 5:11
  and
• 5:12
  I
• 5:12
  really
• 5:12
  want
• 5:12
  to
• 5:12
  do
• 5:12
  this
• 5:12
  stuff.
• 5:12
  And
• 5:13
  I
• 5:13
  had
• 5:13
  to
• 5:13
  teach
• 5:14
  myself
• 5:14
  everything
• 5:15
  that
• 5:15
  I
• 5:15
  then
• 5:16
  learned.
• 5:16
  So
• 5:17
  even,
• 5:17
  even
• 5:18
  down
• 5:18
  to
• 5:18
  parents
• 5:19
  being
• 5:19
  not
• 5:19
  knowing
• 5:20
  anything
• 5:20
  at
• 5:20
  that
• 5:21
  moment
• 5:21
  when
• 5:21
  they're
• 5:21
  pulling
• 5:22
  their
• 5:22
  children
• 5:22
  out
• 5:22
  of
• 5:22
  school,
• 5:23
  I
• 5:23
  was
• 5:23
  23,
• 5:24
  24
• 5:25
  by
• 5:25
  the
• 5:25
  time
• 5:25
  I
• 5:25
  even
• 5:25
  went
• 5:26
  to
• 5:26
  uni.
• 5:26
  So
• 5:26
  I,
• 5:27
  you
• 5:27
  know,
• 5:27
  I
• 5:27
  had
• 5:27
  to
• 5:28
  then
• 5:28
  teach
• 5:28
  all
• 5:29
  myself
• 5:29
  that
• 5:29
  stuff.
• 5:30
  Then
• 5:31
  you
• 5:31
  can
• 5:31
  teach
• 5:32
  yourself
• 5:33
  anything.
• 5:33
  You
• 5:33
  can
• 5:34
  always
• 5:34
  learn
• 5:35
  anything
• 5:36
  at
• 5:36
  all.
• 5:36
  So
• 5:36
  even
• 5:36
  as
• 5:37
  a
• 5:37
  parent,
• 5:37
  if
• 5:37
  you're
• 5:38
  40,
• 5:38
  50,
• 5:39
  60,
• 5:39
  whatever,
• 5:39
  and
• 5:39
  you've
• 5:40
  decided
• 5:40
  to
• 5:40
  pull
• 5:40
  your
• 5:40
  kids
• 5:40
  out
• 5:41
  of
• 5:41
  school
• 5:41
  and
• 5:41
  then
• 5:41
  you're
• 5:41
  like,
• 5:42
  oh,
• 5:42
  I'm
• 5:42
  not,
• 5:42
  I'm
• 5:42
  not
• 5:42
  clever
• 5:43
  enough,
• 5:43
  well
• 5:43
  then
• 5:43
  you
• 5:44
  can
• 5:44
  learn
• 5:44
  too.
• 5:44
  At
• 5:44
  the
• 5:45
  same
• 5:45
  time,
• 5:45
  you
• 5:45
  don't
• 5:45
  have
• 5:46
  to.
• 5:46
  You,
• 5:46
  there
• 5:47
  isn't
• 5:47
  an
• 5:47
  age
• 5:47
  at
• 5:47
  what
• 5:48
  your
• 5:48
  brain
• 5:48
  caps
• 5:49
  off
• 5:49
  at
• 5:49
  of
• 5:49
  learning
• 5:50
  capabilities.
• 5:51
  You
• 5:51
  can
• 5:51
  just,
• 5:52
  you
• 5:52
  know,
• 5:52
  learn
• 5:53
  whenever
• 5:53
  you
• 5:53
  want
• 5:54
  to
• 5:54
  learn.
• 5:54
  And
• 5:54
  whether
• 5:54
  that
• 5:54
  be
• 5:55
  with
• 5:55
  your
• 5:55
  kids.
• 5:56
  Or
• 5:56
  like
• 5:57
  sometimes
• 5:57
  I'll.
• 5:58
  If
• 5:58
  I
• 5:58
  know
• 5:59
  I'm
• 5:59
  gonna.
• 5:59
  If
• 5:59
  one
• 5:59
  of
• 5:59
  the
• 6:00
  kids
• 6:00
  have
• 6:00
  asked
• 6:00
  something
• 6:01
  and
• 6:01
  I
• 6:01
  don't
• 6:02
  know
• 6:02
  some,
• 6:03
  whatever
• 6:03
  it
• 6:03
  is,
• 6:04
  I
• 6:05
  can't
• 6:05
  remember
• 6:05
  what
• 6:05
  she
• 6:05
  asked
• 6:06
  me
• 6:06
  yesterday.
• 6:06
  She
• 6:06
  asked
• 6:07
  me
• 6:07
  something
• 6:07
  to
• 6:08
  do
• 6:08
  with.
• 6:08
  My
• 6:09
  6
• 6:09
  year
• 6:09
  old
• 6:09
  is
• 6:09
  very
• 6:10
  interested
• 6:10
  in
• 6:10
  the
• 6:10
  body,
• 6:11
  like
• 6:11
  physically,
• 6:11
  like
• 6:12
  inside.
• 6:13
  And
• 6:13
  she
• 6:13
  asked
• 6:13
  me
• 6:14
  about
• 6:14
  something
• 6:14
  to
• 6:14
  do
• 6:15
  with
• 6:15
  that
• 6:15
  and
• 6:16
  I
• 6:16
  had
• 6:16
  no
• 6:16
  clue
• 6:16
  whatever
• 6:17
  it
• 6:17
  was
• 6:17
  that
• 6:17
  she
• 6:17
  was
• 6:17
  talking
• 6:18
  about.
• 6:18
  And
• 6:18
  I'm
• 6:18
  like,
• 6:18
  okay,
• 6:19
  so
• 6:19
  let's
• 6:19
  figure
• 6:19
  out
• 6:20
  that.
• 6:20
  So
• 6:20
  I
• 6:20
  went
• 6:21
  away
• 6:21
  and
• 6:21
  did
• 6:21
  a
• 6:21
  little
• 6:22
  bit
• 6:22
  of
• 6:22
  mini
• 6:22
  research
• 6:23
  first
• 6:24
  so
• 6:24
  that
• 6:24
  I
• 6:25
  could,
• 6:25
  you
• 6:25
  know,
• 6:25
  have
• 6:25
  a
• 6:26
  conversation
• 6:27
  with
• 6:27
  her
• 6:27
  on
• 6:27
  a
• 6:27
  level.
• 6:28
  But
• 6:28
  then
• 6:28
  the
• 6:28
  rest
• 6:29
  of
• 6:29
  it
• 6:29
  will
• 6:29
  be
• 6:29
  her
• 6:30
  looking
• 6:30
  into
• 6:31
  videos
• 6:31
  and
• 6:31
  watching
• 6:32
  videos
• 6:32
  and
• 6:32
  getting
• 6:33
  books
• 6:33
  and
• 6:33
  et
• 6:34
  cetera.
• 6:34
  So
• 6:34
  I,
• 6:35
  I
• 6:35
  think
• 6:35
  it
• 6:35
  can
• 6:35
  also
• 6:35
  be,
• 6:35
  it
• 6:36
  can
• 6:36
  be
• 6:36
  a
• 6:36
  bit
• 6:36
  of
• 6:36
  both.
• 6:36
  You
• 6:37
  can
• 6:37
  teach
• 6:37
  yourself
• 6:37
  and
• 6:37
  the
• 6:38
  kids
• 6:38
  can
• 6:38
  learn
• 6:38
  or
• 6:39
  if
• 6:39
  you
• 6:39
  don't
• 6:39
  know
• 6:39
  stuff
• 6:40
  or
• 6:40
  you
• 6:40
  do
• 6:40
  know
• 6:40
  stuff,
• 6:41
  everyone's
• 6:41
  capabilities
• 6:42
  of
• 6:42
  learning
• 6:42
  is
• 6:43
  different,
• 6:43
  isn't
• 6:43
  it?
• 6:43
  Of
• 6:44
  what
• 6:44
  they
• 6:45
  know
• 6:45
  and
• 6:45
  what
• 6:45
  they
• 6:45
  don't
• 6:45
  know.
• 6:46
  And
• 6:46
  you
• 6:46
  might
• 6:46
  know
• 6:47
  more
• 6:47
  about
• 6:47
  one
• 6:48
  subject
• 6:48
  than
• 6:48
  the
• 6:48
  other,
• 6:49
  which
• 6:49
  you
• 6:49
  can
• 6:50
  bring
• 6:50
  to
• 6:50
  the
• 6:50
  table,
• 6:50
  but
• 6:51
  another
• 6:51
  parent
• 6:51
  might
• 6:52
  not
• 6:52
  be
• 6:52
  able
• 6:52
  to
• 6:52
  bring
• 6:52
  to
• 6:53
  the
• 6:53
  table.
• 6:53
  So
• 6:53
  I
• 6:54
  think
• 6:54
  it's
• 6:54
  situation
• 6:55
  dependent.
• 6:56
  Yeah.
• 6:57
  Or
• 6:57
  there's,
• 6:58
  there's
• 6:59
  always
• 6:59
  some
• 6:59
  things
• 6:59
  as
• 7:00
  well
• 7:00
  that
• 7:00
  you
• 7:00
  are
• 7:00
  more
• 7:01
  interested
• 7:01
  in
• 7:02
  finding
• 7:02
  out
• 7:02
  about
• 7:03
  than
• 7:03
  otherwise.
• 7:03
  Like
• 7:04
  for
• 7:04
  example,
• 7:05
  my
• 7:05
  son
• 7:05
  always
• 7:06
  was
• 7:06
  always
• 7:06
  into
• 7:06
  my
• 7:07
  maths
• 7:07
  and
• 7:07
  I
• 7:07
  would
• 7:08
  sit
• 7:08
  with
• 7:08
  him
• 7:08
  and
• 7:09
  we
• 7:09
  would
• 7:09
  do
• 7:09
  math
• 7:09
  because
• 7:10
  my
• 7:10
  maths
• 7:10
  is
• 7:10
  terrible.
• 7:11
  And
• 7:11
  so
• 7:12
  I
• 7:12
  would
• 7:12
  sit
• 7:12
  there
• 7:12
  next
• 7:12
  to
• 7:13
  him
• 7:13
  and
• 7:13
  do
• 7:13
  maths.
• 7:13
  And
• 7:14
  realistically
• 7:15
  I
• 7:15
  was
• 7:15
  kind
• 7:15
  of
• 7:15
  learning
• 7:16
  alongside
• 7:16
  him,
• 7:16
  but
• 7:17
  also
• 7:17
  kind
• 7:17
  of
• 7:17
  not,
• 7:17
  because
• 7:18
  I
• 7:18
  just
• 7:18
  frankly
• 7:19
  just
• 7:19
  didn't
• 7:19
  really
• 7:20
  care
• 7:20
  that
• 7:20
  much
• 7:20
  to
• 7:20
  learn
• 7:20
  about
• 7:21
  it.
• 7:21
  Whereas
• 7:22
  in
• 7:22
  contrast,
• 7:23
  if
• 7:23
  it
• 7:23
  was
• 7:23
  something
• 7:23
  like
• 7:24
  the
• 7:24
  solar
• 7:24
  system,
• 7:25
  I
• 7:25
  was
• 7:25
  like,
• 7:25
  ooh,
• 7:26
  yeah,
• 7:26
  I
• 7:27
  really
• 7:27
  want
• 7:27
  to
• 7:27
  know
• 7:27
  this
• 7:27
  stuff.
• 7:28
  Like,
• 7:28
  I
• 7:28
  actually
• 7:28
  want
• 7:29
  to
• 7:29
  learn
• 7:29
  your
• 7:29
  astronomy
• 7:30
  alongside
• 7:30
  you
• 7:31
  because
• 7:31
  I
• 7:31
  just
• 7:31
  think
• 7:31
  that's
• 7:31
  a
• 7:31
  cool
• 7:32
  thing.
• 7:32
  So
• 7:33
  you
• 7:33
  can
• 7:33
  pick
• 7:33
  and
• 7:33
  choose
• 7:34
  as
• 7:34
  well.
• 7:34
  You
• 7:34
  don't
• 7:34
  have
• 7:34
  to
• 7:35
  learn
• 7:35
  everything
• 7:35
  that
• 7:35
  your
• 7:36
  child
• 7:36
  is
• 7:36
  learning.
• 7:36
  Like,
• 7:37
  there's
• 7:37
  loads
• 7:37
  of
• 7:37
  stuff
• 7:38
  my
• 7:38
  son
• 7:38
  knows
• 7:38
  and
• 7:38
  my
• 7:39
  daughter
• 7:39
  knows
• 7:39
  that
• 7:39
  I
• 7:39
  do
• 7:40
  not
• 7:40
  know
• 7:40
  anything
• 7:40
  about.
• 7:41
  And
• 7:41
  that's
• 7:41
  okay,
• 7:41
  because
• 7:41
  I
• 7:42
  don't
• 7:42
  need
• 7:42
  to
• 7:42
  know
• 7:42
  that
• 7:42
  they
• 7:42
  need
• 7:43
  to
• 7:43
  know.
• 7:43
  I
• 7:43
  don't
• 7:43
  need
• 7:43
  to
• 7:43
  know.
• 7:43
  I'm
• 7:44
  not
• 7:44
  doing
• 7:44
  the
• 7:44
  GCSE
• 7:45
  in
• 7:46
  travel
• 7:46
  and
• 7:46
  tourism.
• 7:47
  I
• 7:47
  don't
• 7:47
  need
• 7:47
  to
• 7:47
  know
• 7:48
  that
• 7:48
  stuff,
• 7:48
  Right?
• 7:48
  So
• 7:49
  realistically,
• 7:49
  like,
• 7:50
  if
• 7:50
  they
• 7:50
  want
• 7:50
  to
• 7:50
  learn
• 7:51
  about
• 7:51
  Minecraft
• 7:52
  and
• 7:52
  obsidian
• 7:53
  and
• 7:53
  stuff
• 7:53
  like
• 7:53
  that,
• 7:54
  more
• 7:54
  power
• 7:54
  to
• 7:54
  them,
• 7:54
  but
• 7:55
  I
• 7:55
  don't
• 7:55
  care,
• 7:55
  right?
• 7:56
  So
• 7:56
  they
• 7:56
  can
• 7:56
  do
• 7:56
  that,
• 7:57
  but.
• 7:57
  So
• 7:58
  you
• 7:58
  can
• 7:58
  kind
• 7:58
  of
• 7:58
  choose
• 7:58
  what
• 7:59
  you
• 8:00
  start
• 8:01
  to
• 8:01
  get
• 8:01
  clever
• 8:01
  in
• 8:02
  as
• 8:02
  you
• 8:02
  go
• 8:02
  through
• 8:02
  the
• 8:03
  journey.
• 8:03
  Like,
• 8:03
  you
• 8:03
  can
• 8:04
  see
• 8:04
  it
• 8:04
  as
• 8:04
  an
• 8:04
  opportunity.
• 8:05
  Okay,
• 8:05
  like,
• 8:06
  my
• 8:06
  spelling
• 8:06
  is
• 8:07
  really
• 8:07
  bad.
• 8:07
  So
• 8:07
  I'm
• 8:08
  going
• 8:08
  to
• 8:08
  learn
• 8:08
  spelling
• 8:09
  alongside
• 8:09
  my
• 8:09
  children
• 8:10
  when
• 8:10
  they're
• 8:10
  learning
• 8:10
  their
• 8:11
  spelling,
• 8:11
  because
• 8:11
  maybe
• 8:12
  it's
• 8:12
  something
• 8:12
  that's
• 8:12
  always
• 8:12
  bothered
• 8:13
  you,
• 8:13
  but
• 8:13
  maybe
• 8:13
  you
• 8:14
  just
• 8:14
  think,
• 8:14
  actually,
• 8:14
  do
• 8:14
  you
• 8:15
  know
• 8:15
  what,
• 8:15
  I
• 8:15
  don't
• 8:15
  care
• 8:15
  that
• 8:15
  I
• 8:15
  can't
• 8:16
  spell
• 8:16
  because
• 8:16
  I've
• 8:16
  got
• 8:16
  a
• 8:16
  spell
• 8:16
  checker
• 8:17
  and
• 8:17
  I
• 8:17
  don't
• 8:17
  need
• 8:17
  to,
• 8:17
  but
• 8:18
  I
• 8:18
  would
• 8:18
  like
• 8:18
  to
• 8:18
  do
• 8:19
  more
• 8:19
  maths.
• 8:19
  And
• 8:20
  then
• 8:20
  it's
• 8:20
  almost
• 8:20
  like
• 8:21
  you
• 8:21
  have
• 8:21
  that
• 8:21
  option
• 8:22
  to
• 8:23
  grow
• 8:23
  your
• 8:23
  cleverness.
• 8:24
  I'm
• 8:24
  doing
• 8:24
  lots
• 8:24
  of
• 8:24
  inverted
• 8:25
  commas
• 8:25
  here.
• 8:26
  Grow
• 8:26
  your
• 8:26
  cleverness
• 8:27
  through
• 8:27
  their
• 8:28
  journey.
• 8:28
  Right?
• 8:29
  It's
• 8:29
  really
• 8:29
  lovely
• 8:30
  when
• 8:30
  your
• 8:31
  children
• 8:31
  can
• 8:32
  teach
• 8:32
  you
• 8:32
  things.
• 8:33
  And
• 8:33
  I
• 8:34
  think
• 8:34
  that's
• 8:34
  a
• 8:34
  really
• 8:34
  amazing
• 8:35
  life
• 8:35
  skill
• 8:36
  for
• 8:36
  them
• 8:37
  to
• 8:37
  learn.
• 8:38
  And
• 8:38
  also,
• 8:39
  you
• 8:40
  know,
• 8:40
  this
• 8:40
  kind
• 8:40
  of
• 8:40
  concept
• 8:41
  that
• 8:42
  listen
• 8:42
  to
• 8:42
  your
• 8:42
  elders
• 8:43
  and
• 8:44
  they
• 8:44
  know
• 8:44
  best
• 8:45
  and
• 8:45
  you're
• 8:46
  just
• 8:46
  a
• 8:46
  child,
• 8:47
  is
• 8:48
  very
• 8:48
  limiting.
• 8:49
  And
• 8:50
  actually,
• 8:50
  children
• 8:50
  have
• 8:51
  an
• 8:51
  awful
• 8:51
  lot
• 8:51
  to
• 8:51
  teach
• 8:52
  us
• 8:52
  and
• 8:52
  it's
• 8:52
  really
• 8:52
  great
• 8:53
  if
• 8:53
  they
• 8:53
  have
• 8:53
  the
• 8:53
  confidence
• 8:54
  to
• 8:54
  challenge
• 8:55
  your
• 8:55
  ideas
• 8:55
  and
• 8:56
  your
• 8:56
  thoughts
• 8:56
  or,
• 8:57
  you
• 8:57
  know,
• 8:58
  have
• 8:58
  that
• 8:59
  opportunity.
• 9:00
  I
• 9:00
  mean,
• 9:01
  my
• 9:02
  girls
• 9:02
  love
• 9:03
  teaching
• 9:03
  each
• 9:03
  other
• 9:04
  as
• 9:04
  well,
• 9:04
  which
• 9:04
  is
• 9:05
  also
• 9:05
  a
• 9:05
  lovely
• 9:06
  thing
• 9:06
  and
• 9:07
  a
• 9:07
  lovely
• 9:07
  aspect
• 9:08
  of
• 9:08
  home
• 9:08
  education.
• 9:09
  But
• 9:10
  I
• 9:10
  love
• 9:11
  sitting
• 9:11
  down
• 9:12
  and
• 9:12
  hearing
• 9:13
  what
• 9:13
  they've
• 9:13
  been
• 9:14
  reading
• 9:14
  about
• 9:15
  or.
• 9:15
  And
• 9:16
  sometimes
• 9:16
  they
• 9:17
  are
• 9:17
  teaching
• 9:17
  me
• 9:18
  things.
• 9:18
  And
• 9:19
  yeah,
• 9:20
  it
• 9:20
  might
• 9:20
  be
• 9:20
  stuff
• 9:21
  that
• 9:21
  I'm
• 9:21
  not
• 9:21
  overly
• 9:22
  interested
• 9:22
  in,
• 9:22
  don't
• 9:22
  hang
• 9:23
  on
• 9:23
  to
• 9:23
  as
• 9:24
  information
• 9:24
  in
• 9:24
  my
• 9:24
  brain,
• 9:25
  but
• 9:25
  it's
• 9:26
  lovely
• 9:26
  to
• 9:28
  see
• 9:29
  that
• 9:30
  education,
• 9:33
  this,
• 9:33
  this
• 9:33
  kind
• 9:34
  of
• 9:34
  myth
• 9:34
  that
• 9:34
  you
• 9:34
  have
• 9:35
  to
• 9:35
  be
• 9:35
  taught
• 9:35
  everything.
• 9:37
  But
• 9:37
  actually,
• 9:39
  you
• 9:39
  know,
• 9:39
  the,
• 9:40
  the
• 9:40
  thirst
• 9:40
  for
• 9:40
  learning
• 9:42
  is
• 9:42
  in
• 9:42
  us
• 9:42
  all.
• 9:43
  And
• 9:43
  if
• 9:43
  you
• 9:44
  give
• 9:44
  them
• 9:44
  the
• 9:44
  right
• 9:45
  environment
• 9:45
  to
• 9:46
  do
• 9:46
  that,
• 9:47
  we've
• 9:47
  all
• 9:47
  got
• 9:48
  access
• 9:48
  to
• 9:49
  so
• 9:49
  much
• 9:49
  information
• 9:50
  now
• 9:50
  so
• 9:51
  easily
• 9:52
  and
• 9:53
  that
• 9:54
  skill.
• 9:54
  I
• 9:54
  think
• 9:55
  I
• 9:55
  always
• 9:56
  felt
• 9:56
  a
• 9:56
  little
• 9:56
  bit
• 9:57
  limited
• 9:57
  as
• 9:58
  a
• 9:58
  child
• 9:59
  with
• 9:59
  kind
• 9:59
  of,
• 10:00
  I
• 10:00
  had
• 10:01
  to,
• 10:01
  you
• 10:01
  know,
• 10:01
  have
• 10:02
  this
• 10:02
  belief
• 10:02
  that
• 10:03
  I
• 10:03
  can't
• 10:04
  know
• 10:04
  anything
• 10:05
  unless
• 10:05
  I've
• 10:05
  been
• 10:06
  and
• 10:06
  got
• 10:06
  a
• 10:06
  piece
• 10:06
  of
• 10:06
  paper
• 10:07
  that
• 10:07
  tells
• 10:07
  me
• 10:07
  that
• 10:08
  I
• 10:09
  know
• 10:10
  that
• 10:10
  information
• 10:11
  from
• 10:11
  someone
• 10:12
  who's
• 10:12
  very,
• 10:12
  very
• 10:12
  well
• 10:13
  educated
• 10:13
  and
• 10:13
  has
• 10:14
  all
• 10:14
  the
• 10:14
  skills
• 10:15
  to
• 10:15
  do
• 10:15
  that.
• 10:15
  And
• 10:16
  I
• 10:16
  think
• 10:17
  my,
• 10:19
  my
• 10:19
  children
• 10:19
  don't
• 10:20
  have
• 10:20
  that
• 10:20
  concept
• 10:21
  in
• 10:21
  them
• 10:21
  at
• 10:21
  the
• 10:22
  moment.
• 10:22
  You
• 10:22
  know,
• 10:22
  they,
• 10:23
  they,
• 10:23
  if
• 10:23
  they
• 10:23
  want
• 10:24
  to
• 10:24
  learn
• 10:24
  something,
• 10:24
  they'll
• 10:25
  just
• 10:25
  go
• 10:25
  and
• 10:25
  find
• 10:26
  the
• 10:26
  information
• 10:26
  and
• 10:26
  then
• 10:27
  declare
• 10:27
  themselves
• 10:28
  an
• 10:28
  expert
• 10:28
  on
• 10:28
  it.
• 10:29
  Yeah,
• 10:29
  and
• 10:29
  why
• 10:29
  not?
• 10:30
  You
• 10:30
  know,
• 10:31
  we
• 10:31
  should
• 10:32
  be
• 10:32
  more
• 10:32
  confident
• 10:32
  in
• 10:33
  what
• 10:33
  we
• 10:33
  know
• 10:34
  and
• 10:35
  our
• 10:35
  abilities
• 10:35
  to
• 10:36
  go
• 10:36
  and
• 10:36
  find
• 10:36
  that
• 10:37
  information
• 10:37
  and
• 10:37
  learn
• 10:38
  it.
• 10:38
  Absolutely.
• 10:39
  It's
• 10:40
  really
• 10:40
  important
• 10:41
  to
• 10:42
  learn
• 10:43
  from
• 10:43
  the
• 10:43
  right
• 10:44
  sources
• 10:44
  and
• 10:45
  absolutely
• 10:45
  going
• 10:46
  to
• 10:46
  university
• 10:47
  and
• 10:47
  studying
• 10:48
  with
• 10:48
  people
• 10:49
  who've
• 10:49
  been
• 10:49
  studying
• 10:49
  these
• 10:50
  subjects
• 10:50
  years
• 10:50
  is
• 10:51
  really
• 10:51
  beneficial.
• 10:52
  I'm
• 10:52
  not
• 10:52
  taking
• 10:52
  away
• 10:53
  from
• 10:53
  that.
• 10:54
  But
• 10:54
  the
• 10:55
  information
• 10:55
  is
• 10:55
  there
• 10:56
  and
• 10:56
  you
• 10:56
  can
• 10:57
  absorb
• 10:57
  it
• 10:57
  and
• 10:57
  you
• 10:58
  can
• 10:58
  learn
• 10:59
  so
• 10:59
  much
• 11:00
  through
• 11:01
  your
• 11:01
  own
• 11:02
  explorings.
• 11:04
  I
• 11:04
  think
• 11:05
  life
• 11:05
  experience
• 11:06
  as
• 11:06
  well
• 11:07
  because
• 11:07
  I,
• 11:08
  I
• 11:08
  did
• 11:09
  my
• 11:09
  masters
• 11:10
  in
• 11:10
  clinical
• 11:11
  child
• 11:12
  psychology.
• 11:13
  Everything
• 11:14
  I
• 11:14
  learn
• 11:14
  on
• 11:15
  that
• 11:15
  bit
• 11:15
  of
• 11:15
  paper,
• 11:15
  like
• 11:15
  you
• 11:16
  say,
• 11:16
  that
• 11:16
  got
• 11:16
  signed
• 11:16
  by
• 11:17
  someone
• 11:18
  much
• 11:18
  more
• 11:18
  educated
• 11:19
  than
• 11:19
  me.
• 11:19
  I'd
• 11:19
  already
• 11:20
  been
• 11:20
  doing
• 11:20
  with
• 11:21
  my
• 11:21
  kids
• 11:21
  for
• 11:21
  the
• 11:21
  last
• 11:22
  12
• 11:22
  years.
• 11:23
  So
• 11:23
  they,
• 11:23
  they're
• 11:24
  trying
• 11:24
  to
• 11:24
  teach
• 11:24
  me
• 11:24
  stuff.
• 11:25
  And
• 11:25
  I'm
• 11:25
  like,
• 11:26
  yeah,
• 11:26
  I
• 11:26
  know
• 11:27
  that.
• 11:27
  Yep,
• 11:27
  I
• 11:27
  did
• 11:28
  that
• 11:28
  last
• 11:28
  Tuesday
• 11:29
  actually.
• 11:29
  That
• 11:29
  was
• 11:29
  my
• 11:30
  living
• 11:30
  room.
• 11:30
  Like
• 11:30
  they're
• 11:31
  telling
• 11:31
  me
• 11:31
  about
• 11:32
  ADHD
• 11:33
  and
• 11:33
  this,
• 11:34
  that
• 11:34
  and
• 11:34
  the
• 11:34
  other
• 11:34
  and
• 11:35
  this
• 11:35
  disorder
• 11:35
  and
• 11:36
  autism
• 11:36
  and
• 11:37
  I'm
• 11:37
  like,
• 11:37
  yeah,
• 11:38
  I've
• 11:38
  been
• 11:38
  doing
• 11:38
  this
• 11:38
  since
• 11:39
  I
• 11:39
  was
• 11:39
  16.
• 11:39
  I
• 11:40
  absolutely
• 11:40
  know
• 11:40
  all
• 11:41
  of
• 11:41
  this.
• 11:41
  But
• 11:41
  you
• 11:42
  know,
• 11:42
  I
• 11:42
  don't,
• 11:42
  I
• 11:42
  don't
• 11:43
  necessarily
• 11:43
  think
• 11:43
  that
• 11:44
  the
• 11:44
  piece
• 11:45
  of
• 11:45
  paper,
• 11:46
  it
• 11:46
  means
• 11:47
  that
• 11:47
  you
• 11:47
  know
• 11:48
  the
• 11:48
  stuff,
• 11:49
  you
• 11:49
  can
• 11:49
  learn
• 11:50
  the
• 11:50
  stuff
• 11:51
  without
• 11:51
  the
• 11:51
  paper.
• 11:52
  It
• 11:52
  just,
• 11:53
  it
• 11:53
  just
• 11:53
  depends
• 11:54
  on
• 11:55
  where
• 11:55
  you
• 11:55
  need
• 11:55
  to
• 11:55
  be
• 11:56
  and
• 11:56
  what
• 11:56
  paper
• 11:56
  you
• 11:56
  need
• 11:57
  to
• 11:57
  get
• 11:57
  where
• 11:57
  you
• 11:57
  need
• 11:57
  to
• 11:58
  be.
• 11:58
  But
• 11:58
  the
• 11:59
  knowledge
• 11:59
  wise
• 12:00
  in
• 12:00
  your
• 12:00
  head,
• 12:01
  I
• 12:01
  genuinely
• 12:02
  believe
• 12:02
  that
• 12:02
  you
• 12:02
  can
• 12:03
  teach
• 12:03
  yourself
• 12:03
  and
• 12:04
  live
• 12:04
  yourself
• 12:05
  in
• 12:05
  anything.
• 12:06
  It
• 12:06
  doesn't,
• 12:07
  you
• 12:07
  don't,
• 12:07
  you
• 12:07
  don't
• 12:08
  need
• 12:08
  to
• 12:09
  prove
• 12:09
  to
• 12:09
  someone
• 12:10
  that
• 12:10
  you
• 12:10
  know
• 12:10
  it
• 12:10
  to
• 12:10
  know
• 12:11
  it.
• 12:12
  I
• 12:12
  think
• 12:12
  what
• 12:12
  you're
• 12:12
  both
• 12:12
  talking
• 12:13
  about
• 12:13
  there
• 12:13
  is
• 12:13
  this
• 12:13
  idea
• 12:14
  that
• 12:14
  there's
• 12:15
  this
• 12:16
  figure
• 12:16
  that
• 12:17
  knows
• 12:18
  stuff
• 12:18
  and
• 12:18
  that
• 12:19
  they
• 12:19
  are
• 12:19
  then
• 12:20
  imparting
• 12:20
  that
• 12:21
  stuff
• 12:21
  to
• 12:21
  somebody
• 12:22
  that
• 12:22
  doesn't
• 12:22
  know
• 12:22
  the
• 12:23
  stuff
• 12:23
  and
• 12:23
  that's
• 12:23
  the
• 12:24
  child.
• 12:24
  And
• 12:24
  then
• 12:24
  the
• 12:25
  figure
• 12:25
  is
• 12:25
  this
• 12:26
  sort
• 12:26
  of
• 12:26
  hierarchical
• 12:27
  model
• 12:27
  of
• 12:28
  learning.
• 12:29
  And
• 12:29
  I
• 12:29
  think
• 12:29
  that
• 12:30
  this
• 12:30
  brings
• 12:31
  us
• 12:31
  back
• 12:31
  to
• 12:31
  school
• 12:32
  because
• 12:32
  that's
• 12:33
  the
• 12:33
  school
• 12:33
  model
• 12:34
  completely
• 12:35
  in
• 12:35
  a
• 12:35
  nutshell,
• 12:35
  right?
• 12:36
  You
• 12:36
  have
• 12:36
  one
• 12:36
  person
• 12:37
  at
• 12:37
  the
• 12:37
  front
• 12:37
  of
• 12:37
  the
• 12:37
  class,
• 12:38
  you
• 12:38
  have
• 12:38
  30
• 12:39
  children
• 12:40
  listening
• 12:40
  to
• 12:41
  that
• 12:41
  person.
• 12:41
  Give
• 12:42
  them
• 12:42
  the
• 12:42
  information.
• 12:42
  In
• 12:43
  actual
• 12:43
  fact,
• 12:43
  in
• 12:44
  actual
• 12:44
  fact,
• 12:44
  to
• 12:44
  be
• 12:44
  fair,
• 12:45
  schools
• 12:46
  are
• 12:46
  now
• 12:46
  much
• 12:47
  more
• 12:47
  like,
• 12:47
  you
• 12:47
  go
• 12:47
  and
• 12:48
  sit
• 12:48
  at
• 12:48
  the
• 12:48
  computer
• 12:48
  and
• 12:49
  find
• 12:49
  out
• 12:49
  the
• 12:49
  information.
• 12:50
  I'm
• 12:50
  not
• 12:50
  sure
• 12:50
  like
• 12:50
  actually
• 12:51
  what
• 12:51
  the
• 12:51
  point
• 12:51
  of
• 12:52
  it
• 12:52
  is
• 12:52
  apart
• 12:52
  from
• 12:53
  sitting
• 12:53
  people's
• 12:54
  bottoms
• 12:54
  on
• 12:54
  seats
• 12:55
  for
• 12:55
  eight
• 12:55
  hours
• 12:56
  a
• 12:56
  day,
• 12:56
  because
• 12:56
  realistically
• 12:57
  they're
• 12:57
  not
• 12:57
  even
• 12:58
  doing
• 12:58
  a
• 12:58
  lot
• 12:58
  of
• 12:59
  that
• 12:59
  in
• 12:59
  parting
• 12:59
  anymore.
• 13:00
  But
• 13:00
  I
• 13:00
  think
• 13:01
  that
• 13:01
  one
• 13:01
  of
• 13:02
  the
• 13:02
  things
• 13:02
  that
• 13:03
  I
• 13:03
  find
• 13:04
  really
• 13:04
  problematic
• 13:05
  about
• 13:05
  the
• 13:05
  school
• 13:05
  system
• 13:06
  is
• 13:06
  this
• 13:06
  idea
• 13:07
  that
• 13:07
  you
• 13:07
  have
• 13:07
  this
• 13:08
  one
• 13:08
  person
• 13:08
  who
• 13:09
  is
• 13:09
  in
• 13:09
  charge
• 13:10
  of
• 13:10
  the
• 13:11
  learning.
• 13:11
  You
• 13:12
  know,
• 13:12
  that
• 13:12
  like
• 13:12
  they
• 13:13
  say,
• 13:13
  this
• 13:13
  is
• 13:14
  what
• 13:14
  you're
• 13:14
  gonna
• 13:14
  be
• 13:14
  finding
• 13:14
  out,
• 13:15
  this
• 13:15
  is
• 13:15
  how
• 13:15
  you're
• 13:16
  gonna
• 13:16
  be
• 13:16
  finding
• 13:16
  it
• 13:16
  out.
• 13:17
  Or
• 13:17
  this
• 13:17
  is
• 13:18
  actually
• 13:18
  what
• 13:18
  I
• 13:18
  know,
• 13:19
  take
• 13:19
  that
• 13:19
  information.
• 13:20
  This
• 13:20
  is
• 13:20
  the
• 13:20
  book.
• 13:21
  Read
• 13:21
  this
• 13:21
  chapter,
• 13:22
  read
• 13:22
  that
• 13:22
  page.
• 13:23
  This
• 13:23
  is
• 13:23
  how
• 13:23
  we're
• 13:23
  gonna
• 13:23
  do
• 13:24
  it.
• 13:24
  And
• 13:24
  I
• 13:24
  think
• 13:24
  that
• 13:25
  this
• 13:25
  hierarchical
• 13:26
  system
• 13:26
  in
• 13:27
  school,
• 13:28
  as
• 13:28
  a
• 13:28
  therapist,
• 13:28
  I
• 13:29
  think
• 13:29
  it
• 13:29
  creates
• 13:29
  a
• 13:30
  whole
• 13:30
  barrel
• 13:31
  load
• 13:31
  of
• 13:31
  people
• 13:31
  pleasing
• 13:32
  issues
• 13:32
  when
• 13:33
  people
• 13:33
  get
• 13:33
  older.
• 13:34
  Because
• 13:34
  I
• 13:34
  think
• 13:34
  they
• 13:35
  spend
• 13:35
  formative
• 13:36
  years
• 13:37
  desperately
• 13:37
  trying
• 13:37
  to
• 13:38
  please
• 13:38
  a
• 13:38
  teacher
• 13:38
  desp.
• 13:39
  Having
• 13:39
  to
• 13:40
  do
• 13:40
  what
• 13:40
  they're
• 13:40
  told
• 13:40
  all
• 13:41
  the
• 13:41
  time.
• 13:41
  And
• 13:41
  then
• 13:42
  you
• 13:42
  tell
• 13:42
  them
• 13:42
  they
• 13:42
  get
• 13:43
  to
• 13:43
  19,
• 13:43
  20,
• 13:44
  they
• 13:44
  get
• 13:44
  out
• 13:44
  in
• 13:44
  the
• 13:44
  real
• 13:45
  world
• 13:45
  and
• 13:45
  they're
• 13:46
  like,
• 13:46
  oh,
• 13:46
  no,
• 13:46
  you
• 13:46
  need
• 13:47
  to
• 13:47
  have
• 13:47
  boundaries
• 13:47
  and
• 13:48
  you
• 13:48
  need
• 13:48
  to,
• 13:48
  you
• 13:48
  know,
• 13:49
  sort
• 13:49
  of
• 13:49
  like
• 13:49
  not
• 13:50
  be
• 13:50
  all
• 13:50
  people
• 13:50
  pleasing.
• 13:51
  It's
• 13:51
  like,
• 13:51
  yeah,
• 13:51
  but
• 13:51
  that's
• 13:52
  what
• 13:52
  you've
• 13:52
  been
• 13:52
  telling
• 13:52
  me
• 13:53
  to
• 13:53
  do
• 13:53
  for
• 13:53
  15
• 13:53
  years
• 13:54
  in
• 13:54
  the
• 13:54
  school
• 13:54
  system.
• 13:54
  And
• 13:54
  it's.
• 13:55
  In
• 13:55
  all
• 13:55
  your
• 13:56
  formative
• 13:56
  years,
• 13:56
  it's
• 13:57
  really
• 13:57
  difficult
• 13:58
  to
• 13:58
  break.
• 13:58
  So
• 13:58
  this
• 13:59
  whole
• 13:59
  idea
• 13:59
  of
• 14:00
  being
• 14:00
  clever
• 14:00
  and
• 14:01
  one
• 14:01
  person
• 14:01
  being
• 14:02
  clever
• 14:02
  and
• 14:02
  the
• 14:02
  other
• 14:03
  people
• 14:03
  just
• 14:03
  listening
• 14:04
  to
• 14:04
  that
• 14:04
  person,
• 14:04
  I
• 14:04
  just
• 14:04
  think
• 14:04
  is
• 14:05
  intrinsically
• 14:06
  bad
• 14:06
  for
• 14:06
  humans
• 14:07
  anyway.
• 14:08
  So
• 14:08
  I
• 14:08
  don't
• 14:08
  know
• 14:08
  if
• 14:09
  this
• 14:09
  is
• 14:09
  a
• 14:09
  bit
• 14:09
  controversial,
• 14:10
  but
• 14:10
  I
• 14:11
  am
• 14:13
  repeatedly
• 14:14
  shocked
• 14:14
  at
• 14:15
  the
• 14:15
  level
• 14:15
  of
• 14:16
  education.
• 14:18
  Not
• 14:18
  the
• 14:19
  level
• 14:19
  of
• 14:19
  education
• 14:19
  they've
• 14:19
  all
• 14:19
  passed
• 14:20
  their
• 14:20
  exams,
• 14:20
  but
• 14:21
  the
• 14:21
  level
• 14:21
  of
• 14:22
  which
• 14:22
  teachers
• 14:23
  actually
• 14:24
  are
• 14:24
  imparting
• 14:25
  good
• 14:26
  stuff
• 14:27
  in
• 14:27
  terms
• 14:28
  of
• 14:29
  basic
• 14:29
  spelling,
• 14:31
  punctuation,
• 14:33
  grammar
• 14:33
  in
• 14:34
  both
• 14:34
  their
• 14:34
  speech
• 14:35
  and
• 14:35
  written
• 14:37
  work.
• 14:37
  And
• 14:37
  I
• 14:37
  think
• 14:38
  actually
• 14:39
  it's
• 14:40
  a
• 14:40
  Russian
• 14:40
  roulette
• 14:41
  when
• 14:41
  you
• 14:41
  send
• 14:41
  your
• 14:41
  children
• 14:42
  to
• 14:42
  school
• 14:42
  as
• 14:43
  to
• 14:43
  the
• 14:43
  level
• 14:44
  of
• 14:45
  education
• 14:45
  they
• 14:45
  receive.
• 14:46
  Because
• 14:48
  my
• 14:48
  mum
• 14:49
  taught
• 14:50
  teachers
• 14:50
  to
• 14:51
  be
• 14:51
  teachers.
• 14:52
  And
• 14:53
  so
• 14:54
  I
• 14:54
  saw
• 14:54
  a
• 14:54
  lot
• 14:55
  into
• 14:55
  that
• 14:55
  side
• 14:55
  of
• 14:56
  things.
• 14:56
  And
• 14:56
  most
• 14:57
  of
• 14:57
  what
• 14:57
  they're
• 14:57
  taught
• 14:58
  is
• 14:58
  behavior
• 14:59
  Management,
• 15:00
  the
• 15:00
  actual
• 15:01
  amount
• 15:02
  of
• 15:02
  time
• 15:03
  they
• 15:03
  spend
• 15:04
  on
• 15:05
  the
• 15:05
  learning
• 15:06
  side
• 15:06
  of
• 15:06
  things
• 15:07
  or
• 15:07
  you
• 15:08
  know,
• 15:08
  ensuring
• 15:09
  their
• 15:09
  educated
• 15:10
  their
• 15:10
  level
• 15:10
  of
• 15:12
  skills
• 15:12
  is
• 15:12
  at
• 15:13
  the
• 15:13
  right
• 15:13
  level
• 15:14
  is
• 15:14
  a
• 15:14
  lot
• 15:14
  less
• 15:15
  than
• 15:15
  the.
• 15:15
  The
• 15:15
  amount
• 15:16
  of
• 15:16
  time
• 15:16
  is
• 15:16
  spent
• 15:16
  on
• 15:17
  behavior
• 15:17
  management
• 15:17
  and
• 15:17
  planning
• 15:18
  and
• 15:19
  making
• 15:19
  sure
• 15:19
  that
• 15:19
  their
• 15:19
  plans
• 15:20
  look
• 15:20
  beautiful.
• 15:21
  You
• 15:21
  know,
• 15:22
  it
• 15:22
  was
• 15:22
  different
• 15:22
  years
• 15:22
  ago,
• 15:23
  but
• 15:23
  these
• 15:23
  days
• 15:23
  those
• 15:24
  are
• 15:24
  the
• 15:24
  focuses
• 15:25
  and
• 15:25
  you
• 15:25
  know,
• 15:26
  and,
• 15:26
  and
• 15:27
  rightly
• 15:27
  so
• 15:27
  in
• 15:28
  so
• 15:28
  many
• 15:28
  ways
• 15:28
  because
• 15:28
  when
• 15:29
  you've
• 15:29
  got
• 15:29
  huge
• 15:30
  classroom
• 15:30
  full
• 15:30
  of
• 15:30
  children,
• 15:31
  you
• 15:31
  know
• 15:31
  you
• 15:32
  need
• 15:32
  behavior
• 15:32
  management
• 15:33
  needs
• 15:33
  to
• 15:33
  be
• 15:33
  top
• 15:34
  of
• 15:34
  your
• 15:35
  agenda.
• 15:35
  But
• 15:37
  yeah,
• 15:38
  it
• 15:39
  does
• 15:39
  repeatedly
• 15:40
  shock
• 15:40
  me
• 15:41
  that
• 15:41
  the
• 15:42
  expectation
• 15:43
  on
• 15:43
  home
• 15:43
  educators
• 15:45
  and
• 15:45
  actually
• 15:46
  let's
• 15:47
  look
• 15:47
  at
• 15:47
  teachers
• 15:47
  and
• 15:48
  what
• 15:48
  their
• 15:49
  knowledge
• 15:49
  levels
• 15:49
  are.
• 15:50
  It
• 15:50
  would
• 15:50
  be
• 15:50
  interesting
• 15:51
  to
• 15:51
  see
• 15:52
  how
• 15:53
  many
• 15:53
  teachers
• 15:54
  know
• 15:54
  the
• 15:54
  stuff
• 15:55
  outside
• 15:55
  of
• 15:56
  the
• 15:56
  bit
• 15:56
  of
• 15:56
  paper
• 15:57
  that's
• 15:57
  got
• 15:57
  the
• 15:57
  curriculum
• 15:58
  written
• 15:58
  on
• 15:58
  it.
• 15:59
  What
• 15:59
  do
• 15:59
  you
• 15:59
  actually
• 16:00
  know
• 16:00
  about
• 16:00
  World
• 16:00
  War
• 16:01
  II
• 16:01
  that
• 16:01
  is
• 16:01
  not
• 16:01
  written
• 16:02
  on
• 16:02
  that
• 16:02
  curriculum
• 16:03
  tick
• 16:03
  list?
• 16:04
  What
• 16:04
  do
• 16:04
  you
• 16:05
  know
• 16:05
  about
• 16:05
  not
• 16:05
  what
• 16:05
  that
• 16:06
  book
• 16:06
  says?
• 16:06
  Put
• 16:06
  that
• 16:06
  book
• 16:07
  down,
• 16:07
  close
• 16:07
  it
• 16:07
  and
• 16:08
  talk
• 16:08
  to
• 16:08
  me
• 16:08
  about
• 16:08
  World
• 16:09
  War
• 16:09
  II
• 16:09
  and
• 16:10
  tell
• 16:10
  me
• 16:10
  what
• 16:10
  all
• 16:10
  the
• 16:10
  facts
• 16:11
  and
• 16:11
  remembering
• 16:12
  the
• 16:12
  figures
• 16:13
  and
• 16:13
  all
• 16:13
  of
• 16:14
  that.
• 16:14
  Do
• 16:14
  you
• 16:14
  actually
• 16:14
  know
• 16:15
  that
• 16:15
  or
• 16:15
  do
• 16:15
  you
• 16:15
  just
• 16:16
  follow
• 16:16
  the
• 16:17
  lesson
• 16:17
  plan
• 16:17
  that
• 16:18
  the
• 16:18
  government
• 16:18
  has
• 16:19
  given
• 16:19
  you?
• 16:19
  Because
• 16:20
  that's
• 16:20
  quite
• 16:20
  a.
• 16:23
  I
• 16:23
  think
• 16:24
  the
• 16:24
  definition
• 16:24
  of
• 16:25
  knowledge
• 16:26
  is
• 16:27
  quite
• 16:27
  interesting
• 16:28
  because
• 16:28
  does
• 16:28
  knowledge
• 16:29
  mean
• 16:29
  that
• 16:30
  you
• 16:30
  have
• 16:30
  a
• 16:30
  bit
• 16:30
  of
• 16:31
  paper
• 16:31
  that
• 16:31
  says
• 16:32
  you
• 16:32
  ticked
• 16:32
  all
• 16:32
  of
• 16:33
  the
• 16:33
  exams
• 16:34
  or
• 16:34
  does
• 16:34
  knowledge
• 16:35
  mean
• 16:36
  there's
• 16:36
  a,
• 16:36
  there's
• 16:36
  a,
• 16:37
  there's
• 16:38
  a
• 16:38
  clip
• 16:38
  somewhere.
• 16:39
  I'll
• 16:39
  have
• 16:39
  to
• 16:39
  try
• 16:39
  and
• 16:39
  find
• 16:40
  it.
• 16:40
  And
• 16:40
  send
• 16:40
  it
• 16:40
  to
• 16:40
  you.
• 16:41
  But
• 16:41
  it's
• 16:41
  a,
• 16:41
  it's
• 16:42
  a
• 16:42
  brother
• 16:42
  and
• 16:42
  sister,
• 16:43
  like
• 16:43
  adults.
• 16:44
  One
• 16:44
  home
• 16:44
  educates
• 16:45
  and
• 16:45
  one
• 16:45
  sends
• 16:46
  their
• 16:46
  children
• 16:46
  to
• 16:46
  school
• 16:47
  and
• 16:47
  the
• 16:48
  sister
• 16:48
  is
• 16:48
  having
• 16:48
  a
• 16:49
  go
• 16:49
  at
• 16:49
  the
• 16:49
  man
• 16:49
  and
• 16:49
  saying
• 16:50
  he,
• 16:50
  they
• 16:50
  need
• 16:50
  to
• 16:51
  be
• 16:51
  in
• 16:51
  school,
• 16:51
  they
• 16:52
  need
• 16:52
  to
• 16:52
  go
• 16:52
  to
• 16:52
  school,
• 16:52
  they
• 16:52
  need
• 16:53
  to
• 16:53
  live
• 16:53
  in
• 16:53
  the
• 16:53
  real
• 16:53
  world.
• 16:53
  Ra.
• 16:54
  It's
• 16:54
  American,
• 16:55
  right?
• 16:55
  And
• 16:57
  he
• 16:57
  calls
• 16:57
  down
• 16:58
  her
• 16:58
  sons
• 16:59
  and
• 17:00
  asks
• 17:00
  them
• 17:00
  what
• 17:00
  the
• 17:01
  Bill
• 17:01
  of
• 17:01
  Rights
• 17:01
  is
• 17:02
  and
• 17:02
  they
• 17:02
  go
• 17:02
  oh,
• 17:03
  it's
• 17:03
  that
• 17:03
  bit
• 17:03
  of
• 17:03
  paper
• 17:04
  that
• 17:04
  tells
• 17:04
  you
• 17:04
  that
• 17:05
  everyone
• 17:05
  can
• 17:05
  be
• 17:05
  equal
• 17:06
  and
• 17:06
  da
• 17:06
  da
• 17:06
  da
• 17:07
  da,
• 17:07
  like
• 17:07
  some
• 17:07
  fluffy
• 17:08
  version
• 17:08
  of
• 17:08
  what
• 17:08
  it
• 17:09
  is.
• 17:09
  And
• 17:10
  then,
• 17:10
  and
• 17:10
  they're
• 17:11
  like
• 17:11
  14,
• 17:11
  15
• 17:12
  and
• 17:12
  he
• 17:12
  calls
• 17:13
  down
• 17:13
  his
• 17:13
  7
• 17:13
  year
• 17:14
  old
• 17:14
  who's
• 17:14
  home
• 17:14
  educated
• 17:15
  and
• 17:15
  asks
• 17:16
  her
• 17:16
  what
• 17:16
  the
• 17:16
  Bill
• 17:16
  of
• 17:16
  Rights
• 17:17
  is
• 17:17
  and
• 17:17
  she
• 17:18
  recites
• 17:18
  the
• 17:18
  whole
• 17:18
  thing
• 17:19
  and
• 17:19
  then
• 17:19
  he
• 17:19
  says
• 17:19
  to
• 17:19
  her,
• 17:19
  no,
• 17:20
  no,
• 17:20
  no,
• 17:20
  no,
• 17:20
  no,
• 17:20
  don't.
• 17:20
  I
• 17:21
  didn't
• 17:21
  ask
• 17:21
  you
• 17:21
  to
• 17:21
  recite
• 17:22
  it.
• 17:22
  I
• 17:22
  asked
• 17:22
  you
• 17:22
  to
• 17:22
  tell
• 17:23
  me
• 17:23
  what
• 17:23
  it
• 17:23
  is
• 17:24
  in
• 17:24
  your
• 17:24
  own
• 17:24
  words.
• 17:25
  And
• 17:25
  she
• 17:25
  then
• 17:26
  at
• 17:26
  7
• 17:27
  re
• 17:28
  like
• 17:28
  jigs
• 17:28
  it
• 17:29
  into
• 17:29
  her
• 17:29
  own
• 17:29
  words
• 17:30
  and
• 17:30
  actually
• 17:30
  knows
• 17:31
  it.
• 17:31
  And
• 17:31
  I
• 17:31
  found
• 17:32
  that
• 17:32
  quite
• 17:32
  interesting.
• 17:33
  That,
• 17:33
  that's
• 17:33
  the
• 17:33
  difference,
• 17:34
  isn't
• 17:34
  it?
• 17:34
  Because
• 17:34
  school
• 17:35
  is
• 17:35
  just
• 17:36
  recite,
• 17:36
  remember,
• 17:37
  memorize,
• 17:38
  just
• 17:38
  go
• 17:38
  over
• 17:38
  it,
• 17:39
  write
• 17:39
  it,
• 17:39
  repeat,
• 17:40
  rinse,
• 17:40
  repeat,
• 17:41
  cycle.
• 17:41
  But
• 17:42
  actually,
• 17:43
  do
• 17:43
  you
• 17:43
  actually
• 17:43
  know
• 17:44
  what
• 17:44
  it
• 17:44
  is
• 17:44
  that
• 17:45
  you're
• 17:45
  saying?
• 17:45
  Because
• 17:46
  yes,
• 17:46
  you
• 17:46
  can.
• 17:47
  You
• 17:48
  find
• 17:48
  it
• 17:48
  all
• 17:48
  the
• 17:48
  time
• 17:48
  with,
• 17:48
  like
• 17:49
  spelling,
• 17:49
  right?
• 17:49
  Like
• 17:49
  they
• 17:50
  know
• 17:50
  how
• 17:50
  to
• 17:50
  spell
• 17:50
  a
• 17:50
  word
• 17:51
  because
• 17:51
  they've
• 17:51
  repeated
• 17:52
  the.
• 17:53
  The
• 17:53
  letters
• 17:53
  that
• 17:53
  are
• 17:54
  in
• 17:54
  the
• 17:54
  word.
• 17:54
  But
• 17:54
  do
• 17:55
  you
• 17:55
  know
• 17:55
  what
• 17:55
  the
• 17:55
  word
• 17:55
  means?
• 17:56
  Do
• 17:56
  you
• 17:56
  know
• 17:56
  how
• 17:56
  to
• 17:56
  pronounce
• 17:57
  it
• 17:57
  properly?
• 17:57
  Do
• 17:57
  you
• 17:58
  know
• 17:58
  what
• 17:58
  context
• 17:58
  to
• 17:59
  use
• 17:59
  it
• 17:59
  in?
• 18:00
  Probably
• 18:00
  not,
• 18:00
  because
• 18:01
  you're
• 18:01
  not
• 18:01
  learning
• 18:02
  the
• 18:02
  word,
• 18:03
  you're
• 18:03
  learning
• 18:04
  to
• 18:04
  remember
• 18:04
  how
• 18:05
  it's
• 18:05
  spelled.
• 18:05
  It's
• 18:06
  very,
• 18:06
  it's
• 18:06
  a
• 18:07
  very
• 18:07
  interesting
• 18:08
  way.
• 18:08
  Up
• 18:09
  of,
• 18:09
  of
• 18:09
  how
• 18:10
  you
• 18:10
  can.
• 18:11
  What's
• 18:12
  the
• 18:12
  definition
• 18:12
  of
• 18:12
  knowledge?
• 18:13
  Basically,
• 18:14
  this
• 18:14
  is
• 18:14
  exactly
• 18:15
  it,
• 18:15
  right?
• 18:15
  This
• 18:15
  is
• 18:16
  what
• 18:16
  takes
• 18:16
  us
• 18:16
  back
• 18:16
  to
• 18:16
  the
• 18:17
  beginning,
• 18:17
  which
• 18:17
  is
• 18:17
  where
• 18:18
  I
• 18:18
  said,
• 18:18
  like,
• 18:18
  being
• 18:18
  clever.
• 18:19
  I
• 18:19
  think
• 18:20
  in
• 18:20
  this
• 18:20
  context
• 18:20
  means
• 18:21
  knowing
• 18:21
  stuff,
• 18:22
  right?
• 18:22
  And
• 18:23
  realistically,
• 18:23
  in
• 18:24
  school,
• 18:25
  if
• 18:25
  you're
• 18:25
  saying,
• 18:26
  well,
• 18:26
  I'm
• 18:26
  not
• 18:26
  clever
• 18:26
  enough
• 18:27
  to
• 18:27
  home
• 18:27
  educate,
• 18:28
  well,
• 18:28
  all
• 18:28
  a
• 18:29
  teacher
• 18:29
  does
• 18:29
  is
• 18:30
  tell
• 18:30
  the
• 18:31
  child
• 18:31
  what
• 18:31
  they
• 18:32
  need
• 18:32
  to
• 18:32
  know
• 18:32
  to
• 18:33
  jump
• 18:33
  through
• 18:33
  the
• 18:33
  hoop,
• 18:34
  which
• 18:34
  is
• 18:34
  the
• 18:34
  gcse,
• 18:35
  which
• 18:35
  is
• 18:36
  literally
• 18:36
  all
• 18:36
  that
• 18:37
  school
• 18:37
  cares
• 18:37
  about.
• 18:38
  They
• 18:38
  spent
• 18:39
  all
• 18:39
  that
• 18:39
  time
• 18:40
  making
• 18:41
  sure
• 18:41
  that
• 18:41
  you,
• 18:42
  the
• 18:42
  child
• 18:42
  knows
• 18:43
  the
• 18:43
  history
• 18:43
  that
• 18:44
  they
• 18:44
  need
• 18:44
  to
• 18:44
  know
• 18:45
  to
• 18:45
  do
• 18:46
  the
• 18:46
  history,
• 18:46
  gcse.
• 18:47
  And
• 18:48
  they
• 18:48
  do
• 18:48
  all
• 18:49
  of
• 18:49
  that
• 18:49
  stuff
• 18:50
  so
• 18:50
  that
• 18:50
  the
• 18:51
  knowledge
• 18:52
  is
• 18:52
  about
• 18:54
  achieving
• 18:54
  that
• 18:55
  end.
• 18:55
  Because
• 18:56
  it's
• 18:56
  like
• 18:56
  the
• 18:56
  culmination
• 18:57
  of
• 18:57
  school.
• 18:58
  It's
• 18:58
  like
• 18:58
  in
• 18:58
  America
• 18:59
  the
• 18:59
  high
• 18:59
  school
• 18:59
  diploma
• 19:00
  is
• 19:00
  the
• 19:00
  culmination
• 19:01
  of
• 19:01
  your
• 19:02
  school
• 19:02
  journey,
• 19:02
  and
• 19:03
  in
• 19:03
  the
• 19:03
  UK
• 19:03
  it's
• 19:04
  GCSEs
• 19:04
  and
• 19:04
  then
• 19:05
  normally
• 19:05
  some
• 19:05
  sort
• 19:05
  of
• 19:06
  college
• 19:06
  course
• 19:06
  at
• 19:06
  A
• 19:06
  level.
• 19:07
  So
• 19:07
  it's
• 19:07
  not
• 19:08
  about
• 19:08
  cleverness,
• 19:09
  like,
• 19:09
  it's
• 19:10
  not
• 19:10
  about,
• 19:11
  am
• 19:11
  I
• 19:11
  clever
• 19:12
  enough
• 19:12
  to
• 19:12
  home
• 19:12
  educate?
• 19:13
  Because
• 19:13
  if
• 19:13
  you
• 19:14
  want
• 19:14
  to
• 19:14
  take
• 19:14
  the
• 19:14
  same
• 19:14
  approach
• 19:15
  to
• 19:15
  school,
• 19:15
  you
• 19:15
  just
• 19:16
  buy
• 19:16
  yourself
• 19:16
  a
• 19:16
  textbook,
• 19:17
  a
• 19:17
  GCSE
• 19:18
  textbook.
• 19:19
  You
• 19:19
  do
• 19:19
  nothing
• 19:19
  until
• 19:20
  Your
• 19:20
  child
• 19:20
  is
• 19:20
  14,
• 19:21
  then
• 19:21
  you
• 19:21
  sit
• 19:21
  them
• 19:22
  down
• 19:22
  with
• 19:22
  the
• 19:22
  GCSE
• 19:22
  textbook.
• 19:23
  That's
• 19:23
  the
• 19:23
  cleverness
• 19:24
  that
• 19:24
  school
• 19:24
  has.
• 19:25
  Well,
• 19:25
  we
• 19:25
  can
• 19:26
  all
• 19:26
  do
• 19:26
  that.
• 19:27
  But
• 19:27
  actually
• 19:27
  what
• 19:28
  you're
• 19:28
  talking
• 19:28
  about
• 19:28
  is,
• 19:29
  am
• 19:29
  I
• 19:29
  open
• 19:30
  enough
• 19:30
  to
• 19:31
  learning
• 19:31
  and
• 19:32
  am
• 19:32
  I
• 19:32
  able
• 19:33
  to
• 19:33
  help
• 19:33
  my
• 19:33
  child
• 19:34
  care
• 19:35
  about
• 19:35
  their
• 19:35
  learning?
• 19:36
  Like,
• 19:36
  be
• 19:37
  interested
• 19:37
  and
• 19:37
  passionate
• 19:38
  about
• 19:38
  what
• 19:39
  they
• 19:39
  learn
• 19:39
  and
• 19:39
  how
• 19:39
  they
• 19:39
  learn
• 19:40
  well,
• 19:40
  yet
• 19:40
  any
• 19:41
  human
• 19:41
  can
• 19:41
  do
• 19:41
  that
• 19:41
  for.
• 19:42
  Their
• 19:42
  child
• 19:43
  and
• 19:43
  allow
• 19:44
  them
• 19:45
  to
• 19:45
  question
• 19:45
  it
• 19:46
  as
• 19:46
  well.
• 19:47
  Because
• 19:48
  I
• 19:48
  was
• 19:51
  repeatedly
• 19:52
  labeled
• 19:52
  as
• 19:52
  difficult
• 19:53
  in
• 19:54
  school
• 19:54
  because
• 19:55
  I
• 19:56
  questioned
• 19:58
  what
• 19:58
  they
• 19:58
  were
• 19:59
  doing
• 19:59
  and
• 19:59
  I
• 19:59
  was
• 19:59
  often
• 20:00
  labeled
• 20:01
  as
• 20:01
  pedantic
• 20:01
  and
• 20:02
  all
• 20:02
  sorts
• 20:02
  of
• 20:03
  different
• 20:03
  things.
• 20:03
  And
• 20:04
  actually
• 20:05
  then
• 20:05
  I
• 20:06
  started
• 20:06
  suppressing
• 20:07
  that
• 20:07
  part
• 20:07
  of
• 20:07
  myself.
• 20:08
  I
• 20:08
  started
• 20:09
  to
• 20:09
  stop
• 20:09
  questioning
• 20:10
  things,
• 20:10
  because
• 20:11
  I
• 20:11
  was
• 20:11
  told
• 20:11
  that
• 20:12
  wasn't
• 20:12
  okay.
• 20:13
  And
• 20:15
  how
• 20:15
  do
• 20:15
  you
• 20:15
  learn
• 20:15
  without
• 20:16
  questioning?
• 20:16
  Like,
• 20:17
  that's,
• 20:17
  that's
• 20:18
  the.
• 20:19
  For
• 20:20
  me,
• 20:20
  that
• 20:21
  learning
• 20:21
  is.
• 20:22
  It's
• 20:23
  asking
• 20:24
  questions,
• 20:25
  it's
• 20:25
  challenging
• 20:26
  ideas.
• 20:26
  It's,
• 20:27
  you
• 20:27
  know,
• 20:27
  new
• 20:28
  ideas,
• 20:29
  new
• 20:31
  findings,
• 20:32
  scientific
• 20:32
  developments.
• 20:33
  And
• 20:33
  things
• 20:34
  only
• 20:34
  happen
• 20:35
  from
• 20:35
  people
• 20:35
  questioning
• 20:37
  what
• 20:38
  we
• 20:38
  know
• 20:38
  to
• 20:38
  already
• 20:39
  be
• 20:40
  true.
• 20:40
  In
• 20:40
  inverted
• 20:41
  commas.
• 20:41
  Someone's
• 20:42
  perspective
• 20:42
  as
• 20:42
  well.
• 20:43
  Right,
• 20:43
  like,
• 20:44
  of
• 20:44
  it.
• 20:44
  Yeah,
• 20:46
  exactly
• 20:47
  that.
• 20:47
  And
• 20:47
  if
• 20:48
  we're
• 20:48
  not
• 20:48
  able
• 20:49
  to
• 20:49
  question
• 20:50
  that,
• 20:51
  how
• 20:51
  do
• 20:51
  we.
• 20:52
  Like
• 20:52
  you
• 20:53
  say,
• 20:53
  we're
• 20:53
  just
• 20:53
  learning
• 20:54
  something
• 20:55
  in
• 20:55
  rote
• 20:56
  form
• 20:56
  so
• 20:56
  that
• 20:56
  we
• 20:57
  can
• 20:58
  pass
• 20:59
  these
• 21:00
  exams.
• 21:00
  That
• 21:01
  say
• 21:01
  what?
• 21:02
  That
• 21:03
  we've
• 21:03
  managed
• 21:03
  to
• 21:03
  get
• 21:04
  through
• 21:04
  the
• 21:04
  school
• 21:04
  system.
• 21:05
  You
• 21:06
  know,
• 21:06
  it
• 21:06
  doesn't
• 21:06
  really
• 21:07
  tell
• 21:07
  you
• 21:07
  much
• 21:07
  more
• 21:07
  than
• 21:08
  that.
• 21:08
  An
• 21:08
  attendance
• 21:09
  certificate.
• 21:11
  Yeah,
• 21:11
  yeah,
• 21:12
  the
• 21:12
  one
• 21:12
  I
• 21:13
  find.
• 21:13
  The
• 21:13
  one
• 21:13
  I
• 21:13
  find.
• 21:14
  Great.
• 21:14
  Now
• 21:15
  go
• 21:15
  with
• 21:15
  me
• 21:15
  on
• 21:16
  this.
• 21:17
  So
• 21:18
  if
• 21:18
  someone
• 21:18
  said
• 21:19
  to
• 21:19
  you,
• 21:20
  here
• 21:20
  is
• 21:20
  this
• 21:21
  person
• 21:22
  that
• 21:22
  speaks
• 21:22
  no
• 21:23
  English
• 21:23
  whatsoever,
• 21:25
  please
• 21:25
  can
• 21:25
  you
• 21:25
  teach
• 21:26
  them
• 21:26
  to
• 21:26
  speak
• 21:26
  English?
• 21:28
  Most
• 21:28
  people
• 21:29
  would
• 21:29
  believe
• 21:29
  that
• 21:30
  you
• 21:30
  need
• 21:30
  some
• 21:31
  form
• 21:31
  of
• 21:32
  teaching
• 21:33
  degree
• 21:34
  or,
• 21:35
  you
• 21:35
  know,
• 21:35
  French
• 21:36
  degree,
• 21:37
  or
• 21:37
  whatever
• 21:37
  language
• 21:38
  it
• 21:38
  was
• 21:38
  that
• 21:38
  you
• 21:38
  needed
• 21:38
  to
• 21:39
  speak
• 21:39
  to
• 21:39
  that
• 21:39
  speak
• 21:39
  them
• 21:40
  in
• 21:40
  from
• 21:41
  translation
• 21:41
  degree
• 21:42
  something.
• 21:43
  Right?
• 21:44
  Every
• 21:44
  single
• 21:45
  parent
• 21:45
  on
• 21:45
  the
• 21:46
  planet
• 21:46
  teaches
• 21:47
  their
• 21:47
  children
• 21:48
  to
• 21:48
  speak.
• 21:49
  Every
• 21:49
  single
• 21:50
  parent
• 21:51
  teaches
• 21:51
  their
• 21:51
  children
• 21:52
  to
• 21:52
  speak.
• 21:52
  The
• 21:52
  same
• 21:53
  with
• 21:53
  physio,
• 21:53
  right,
• 21:54
  you've
• 21:54
  had
• 21:54
  someone
• 21:54
  that's
• 21:55
  lost
• 21:55
  the
• 21:55
  ability
• 21:55
  to
• 21:56
  walk.
• 21:56
  You
• 21:57
  now
• 21:57
  need
• 21:57
  to
• 21:57
  teach
• 21:58
  them
• 21:58
  how
• 21:58
  to
• 21:58
  walk.
• 21:59
  But
• 21:59
  you
• 22:00
  need
• 22:00
  a
• 22:00
  doctorate
• 22:01
  in
• 22:01
  physio
• 22:01
  to
• 22:01
  be
• 22:02
  able
• 22:02
  to
• 22:02
  teach.
• 22:02
  No,
• 22:03
  because
• 22:03
  every
• 22:03
  single
• 22:04
  person
• 22:04
  teaches
• 22:05
  their
• 22:05
  baby
• 22:05
  how
• 22:05
  to
• 22:06
  walk.
• 22:07
  So
• 22:07
  we
• 22:07
  as
• 22:07
  parents
• 22:09
  are
• 22:09
  teaching
• 22:09
  these
• 22:10
  babies,
• 22:11
  these
• 22:11
  little
• 22:11
  beings
• 22:12
  that
• 22:12
  know
• 22:12
  nothing
• 22:13
  when
• 22:13
  they
• 22:13
  come
• 22:13
  out.
• 22:14
  We're
• 22:14
  teaching
• 22:15
  them
• 22:15
  to
• 22:15
  eat,
• 22:15
  to
• 22:16
  breathe,
• 22:16
  to
• 22:17
  feed,
• 22:17
  to
• 22:18
  look
• 22:18
  after
• 22:18
  themselves
• 22:19
  when
• 22:19
  they're.
• 22:19
  When
• 22:19
  they're
• 22:20
  ill,
• 22:20
  to
• 22:20
  regulate
• 22:21
  their
• 22:21
  body.
• 22:21
  We're
• 22:21
  teaching
• 22:22
  them
• 22:22
  emotions.
• 22:22
  We're
• 22:23
  teaching
• 22:23
  them
• 22:24
  just
• 22:24
  the.
• 22:24
  The
• 22:25
  world,
• 22:25
  just
• 22:25
  how
• 22:25
  to
• 22:26
  navigate
• 22:26
  the
• 22:26
  world
• 22:26
  and
• 22:27
  speak
• 22:27
  and
• 22:27
  communicate
• 22:28
  and
• 22:29
  do
• 22:29
  all
• 22:29
  of
• 22:29
  this
• 22:29
  stuff.
• 22:30
  But
• 22:30
  then
• 22:30
  it
• 22:30
  gets
• 22:31
  to
• 22:31
  education
• 22:31
  and
• 22:32
  then
• 22:32
  parents
• 22:32
  go,
• 22:32
  oh,
• 22:33
  I'm
• 22:33
  not
• 22:33
  clever
• 22:33
  enough.
• 22:34
  What?
• 22:34
  You've
• 22:34
  literally
• 22:35
  taught
• 22:36
  a
• 22:36
  human
• 22:36
  being
• 22:37
  how
• 22:37
  to
• 22:38
  be
• 22:38
  a
• 22:38
  human
• 22:38
  being,
• 22:39
  but
• 22:39
  when
• 22:39
  it
• 22:39
  comes
• 22:40
  to
• 22:40
  learning
• 22:40
  some
• 22:40
  stuff
• 22:41
  about
• 22:41
  World
• 22:41
  War
• 22:42
  II,
• 22:42
  you
• 22:42
  don't
• 22:43
  know
• 22:43
  anything.
• 22:43
  What?
• 22:44
  What?
• 22:44
  It's
• 22:45
  like.
• 22:45
  It's
• 22:46
  like
• 22:46
  they're
• 22:46
  diminishing
• 22:47
  their
• 22:47
  ability
• 22:48
  as
• 22:48
  a
• 22:48
  parent
• 22:50
  because
• 22:50
  someone
• 22:50
  and
• 22:51
  I,
• 22:51
  and
• 22:51
  I
• 22:51
  saw
• 22:51
  a
• 22:51
  thing
• 22:52
  before
• 22:52
  and
• 22:52
  it
• 22:52
  was
• 22:52
  like,
• 22:53
  if
• 22:53
  in
• 22:53
  the
• 22:54
  next
• 22:54
  20
• 22:54
  years,
• 22:56
  it
• 22:56
  sort
• 22:56
  of
• 22:57
  socially
• 22:58
  transpired
• 22:59
  that
• 22:59
  at
• 22:59
  six
• 22:59
  months
• 23:00
  you
• 23:00
  need
• 23:00
  to
• 23:00
  send
• 23:01
  your
• 23:01
  children
• 23:01
  to
• 23:01
  nursery
• 23:02
  because
• 23:02
  they
• 23:02
  need
• 23:02
  to
• 23:02
  learn
• 23:03
  how
• 23:03
  to
• 23:03
  walk
• 23:03
  at
• 23:04
  nursery,
• 23:05
  no
• 23:05
  one
• 23:05
  would
• 23:05
  question
• 23:05
  it.
• 23:06
  You
• 23:06
  just
• 23:06
  send
• 23:06
  your
• 23:06
  kid
• 23:07
  to
• 23:07
  school
• 23:07
  because
• 23:07
  someone's
• 23:08
  Told
• 23:08
  you
• 23:08
  that
• 23:08
  you
• 23:08
  aren't
• 23:09
  capable
• 23:09
  of
• 23:09
  doing
• 23:09
  that.
• 23:10
  Someone
• 23:10
  else
• 23:11
  needs
• 23:11
  to
• 23:11
  do
• 23:11
  that.
• 23:12
  But
• 23:12
  school
• 23:12
  is
• 23:13
  the
• 23:13
  same
• 23:13
  thing.
• 23:13
  They
• 23:14
  just
• 23:14
  tell
• 23:14
  you
• 23:14
  that
• 23:14
  at
• 23:15
  5,
• 23:16
  they
• 23:16
  no
• 23:16
  longer
• 23:16
  can
• 23:17
  be
• 23:17
  taught
• 23:17
  by
• 23:17
  you.
• 23:18
  You're
• 23:18
  not
• 23:18
  good
• 23:18
  enough.
• 23:18
  You
• 23:19
  need
• 23:19
  to
• 23:19
  go
• 23:19
  and
• 23:19
  go
• 23:20
  to
• 23:20
  school
• 23:20
  because
• 23:21
  that's
• 23:21
  the
• 23:21
  only
• 23:21
  person
• 23:22
  that
• 23:22
  can
• 23:22
  teach
• 23:22
  your
• 23:23
  child
• 23:23
  something.
• 23:24
  But
• 23:24
  it's,
• 23:24
  it's
• 23:25
  an
• 23:25
  absolute
• 23:25
  myth.
• 23:26
  Exactly
• 23:26
  the
• 23:26
  point.
• 23:27
  Because
• 23:27
  you've
• 23:28
  done
• 23:28
  five
• 23:28
  years
• 23:29
  of
• 23:30
  teaching
• 23:30
  your
• 23:31
  child
• 23:32
  everything.
• 23:33
  Potty
• 23:33
  training,
• 23:34
  speaking,
• 23:34
  feed
• 23:35
  it
• 23:35
  all
• 23:35
  of
• 23:35
  navigating,
• 23:36
  sharing,
• 23:36
  you
• 23:37
  know,
• 23:37
  and
• 23:37
  sharing.
• 23:38
  Teaching
• 23:38
  a
• 23:39
  kid
• 23:39
  how
• 23:39
  to
• 23:39
  share,
• 23:39
  I
• 23:40
  reckon
• 23:40
  is
• 23:40
  the
• 23:40
  hardest
• 23:41
  thing
• 23:41
  that
• 23:41
  we
• 23:41
  teach
• 23:42
  our
• 23:42
  children.
• 23:42
  I
• 23:43
  will
• 23:43
  pick
• 23:43
  educating
• 23:44
  GCSEs
• 23:45
  over
• 23:45
  sharing
• 23:46
  a
• 23:46
  toddler
• 23:46
  because
• 23:47
  that
• 23:47
  is
• 23:47
  horrible.
• 23:48
  And
• 23:49
  it's,
• 23:49
  it's
• 23:49
  just
• 23:49
  mad
• 23:50
  that
• 23:50
  I
• 23:51
  just
• 23:51
  want
• 23:51
  parents
• 23:51
  to
• 23:52
  be
• 23:52
  more
• 23:52
  confident
• 23:52
  in
• 23:53
  their
• 23:53
  ability
• 23:53
  to
• 23:54
  teach
• 23:54
  their
• 23:54
  children
• 23:54
  because
• 23:55
  they've
• 23:55
  already
• 23:55
  done
• 23:55
  it.
• 23:56
  You've
• 23:56
  already
• 23:56
  done
• 23:57
  it,
• 23:57
  You've
• 23:57
  already
• 23:57
  been
• 23:57
  there,
• 23:57
  you've
• 23:58
  got
• 23:58
  the
• 23:58
  T
• 23:58
  shirt,
• 23:58
  you've
• 23:59
  won
• 23:59
  the
• 23:59
  stamp,
• 24:00
  and
• 24:00
  then
• 24:00
  now
• 24:01
  you're
• 24:01
  not
• 24:01
  good
• 24:01
  enough.
• 24:01
  It
• 24:02
  doesn't,
• 24:02
  it
• 24:02
  doesn't
• 24:02
  make
• 24:03
  any
• 24:03
  sense.
• 24:03
  It's
• 24:03
  not,
• 24:04
  it's
• 24:04
  not
• 24:04
  lining
• 24:05
  up
• 24:05
  with
• 24:05
  the
• 24:05
  actual
• 24:05
  truth
• 24:06
  of
• 24:06
  the
• 24:06
  matter.
• 24:08
  Even
• 24:08
  if
• 24:08
  you
• 24:08
  don't
• 24:09
  actively
• 24:10
  teach
• 24:12
  your
• 24:12
  children
• 24:12
  to
• 24:13
  learn
• 24:13
  those
• 24:13
  things,
• 24:14
  even
• 24:14
  reading
• 24:15
  and
• 24:15
  everything,
• 24:16
  they
• 24:16
  will
• 24:16
  pick
• 24:17
  it
• 24:17
  up
• 24:18
  because
• 24:19
  children
• 24:19
  mimic
• 24:20
  and
• 24:21
  that's
• 24:21
  how
• 24:21
  they
• 24:21
  learn.
• 24:21
  You
• 24:22
  know,
• 24:22
  animals
• 24:22
  in
• 24:22
  the
• 24:23
  wild
• 24:23
  that
• 24:24
  they
• 24:24
  learn
• 24:25
  from
• 24:25
  watching
• 24:26
  other
• 24:26
  animals
• 24:26
  and
• 24:26
  copying,
• 24:27
  and
• 24:28
  we
• 24:28
  do
• 24:28
  that
• 24:28
  too.
• 24:29
  And
• 24:30
  it's
• 24:30
  almost
• 24:31
  impossible
• 24:32
  to
• 24:32
  go
• 24:32
  through
• 24:32
  a
• 24:33
  day
• 24:33
  where
• 24:34
  it
• 24:34
  is
• 24:34
  impossible
• 24:35
  to
• 24:35
  go
• 24:35
  through
• 24:35
  a
• 24:35
  day
• 24:36
  without
• 24:36
  your
• 24:36
  child
• 24:36
  learning
• 24:37
  something.
• 24:38
  Yeah,
• 24:38
  they,
• 24:38
  they
• 24:39
  are
• 24:39
  sponges
• 24:40
  and
• 24:40
  they
• 24:40
  will
• 24:40
  absorb
• 24:41
  the
• 24:41
  information.
• 24:42
  And
• 24:42
  you,
• 24:43
  it's.
• 24:44
  I
• 24:44
  feel
• 24:45
  this
• 24:45
  myth
• 24:45
  around
• 24:47
  the
• 24:47
  number
• 24:47
  of
• 24:47
  hours
• 24:48
  you
• 24:48
  need
• 24:48
  to
• 24:48
  be
• 24:48
  educated.
• 24:49
  What
• 24:49
  is
• 24:49
  education?
• 24:50
  Basically,
• 24:51
  because
• 24:51
  learning
• 24:52
  is
• 24:52
  happening
• 24:53
  all
• 24:53
  the
• 24:53
  time
• 24:53
  in
• 24:54
  so
• 24:54
  many
• 24:54
  forms
• 24:55
  within
• 24:55
  your
• 24:56
  home.
• 24:56
  And
• 24:56
  you
• 24:57
  know
• 24:57
  that
• 24:57
  they'll
• 24:58
  be
• 24:58
  learning
• 24:58
  maths.
• 24:58
  When
• 24:59
  you
• 24:59
  talk
• 24:59
  about
• 24:59
  teaching
• 25:00
  them
• 25:00
  to
• 25:00
  share,
• 25:01
  you
• 25:01
  know,
• 25:01
  if
• 25:01
  you're
• 25:02
  sharing
• 25:02
  out
• 25:02
  a
• 25:03
  snack
• 25:03
  or
• 25:03
  something
• 25:03
  like
• 25:03
  that,
• 25:04
  that's
• 25:04
  basic
• 25:04
  maths,
• 25:05
  you
• 25:06
  know,
• 25:06
  and,
• 25:07
  you
• 25:07
  know,
• 25:08
  they
• 25:08
  might
• 25:09
  read
• 25:10
  the
• 25:10
  back
• 25:10
  of
• 25:10
  the
• 25:10
  cereal
• 25:11
  packet
• 25:11
  and
• 25:11
  they'll
• 25:11
  ask
• 25:12
  you,
• 25:12
  what's
• 25:12
  this
• 25:12
  word?
• 25:12
  And
• 25:13
  things.
• 25:13
  And
• 25:13
  you
• 25:13
  can
• 25:13
  start
• 25:14
  teaching
• 25:14
  them
• 25:15
  to
• 25:15
  read
• 25:15
  without
• 25:15
  sitting
• 25:16
  down
• 25:16
  with
• 25:16
  a
• 25:16
  book
• 25:17
  and
• 25:17
  knowing
• 25:17
  how
• 25:18
  to,
• 25:19
  to
• 25:20
  teach
• 25:20
  phonics
• 25:21
  or
• 25:21
  any
• 25:22
  of
• 25:22
  those
• 25:22
  kind
• 25:23
  of
• 25:23
  things.
• 25:23
  You
• 25:23
  know,
• 25:23
  it.
• 25:24
  They
• 25:24
  naturally
• 25:25
  will
• 25:25
  pick
• 25:26
  everything
• 25:26
  up.
• 25:27
  And
• 25:28
  we,
• 25:29
  we
• 25:29
  kind
• 25:29
  of
• 25:29
  put
• 25:30
  this
• 25:30
  pressure
• 25:30
  on
• 25:30
  ourselves
• 25:31
  and,
• 25:31
  and
• 25:31
  I
• 25:32
  know
• 25:32
  that,
• 25:32
  you
• 25:33
  know,
• 25:33
  so
• 25:33
  many
• 25:33
  of
• 25:33
  my
• 25:34
  home
• 25:34
  educating
• 25:34
  friends
• 25:34
  and
• 25:35
  things,
• 25:35
  we
• 25:35
  go
• 25:36
  sort
• 25:36
  of
• 25:36
  up
• 25:36
  and
• 25:36
  down
• 25:37
  of
• 25:37
  this
• 25:37
  kind
• 25:37
  of
• 25:38
  freaking
• 25:38
  out.
• 25:38
  Oh,
• 25:38
  my
• 25:39
  God,
• 25:39
  I'M
• 25:39
  not
• 25:39
  doing
• 25:39
  enough.
• 25:40
  I
• 25:40
  need
• 25:40
  to
• 25:40
  be
• 25:40
  doing
• 25:41
  more.
• 25:41
  I'm
• 25:41
  not,
• 25:42
  you
• 25:42
  know,
• 25:43
  we.
• 25:43
  Yeah,
• 25:44
  it's
• 25:44
  just
• 25:45
  constant.
• 25:45
  But
• 25:46
  actually,
• 25:46
  I
• 25:46
  have
• 25:47
  found
• 25:47
  that
• 25:48
  whenever
• 25:49
  I've
• 25:49
  taken
• 25:50
  my
• 25:50
  foot
• 25:50
  off
• 25:50
  the
• 25:50
  brake
• 25:51
  with
• 25:51
  things,
• 25:52
  my
• 25:52
  children
• 25:52
  make
• 25:53
  huge
• 25:53
  leaps
• 25:53
  forward
• 25:54
  because
• 25:54
  I've
• 25:54
  given
• 25:55
  them
• 25:55
  the
• 25:55
  space
• 25:57
  to
• 25:57
  process
• 25:58
  everything
• 25:58
  that
• 25:58
  they're
• 25:59
  sor.
• 26:00
  Taking
• 26:00
  in
• 26:00
  and
• 26:00
  learning
• 26:01
  and
• 26:02
  to
• 26:02
  apply
• 26:02
  it
• 26:03
  and
• 26:03
  giving
• 26:04
  them
• 26:04
  that
• 26:04
  space.
• 26:06
  They
• 26:06
  zoom
• 26:06
  ahead
• 26:07
  at
• 26:07
  their
• 26:07
  own
• 26:07
  pace
• 26:08
  and
• 26:08
  with
• 26:08
  their
• 26:08
  own
• 26:09
  sort
• 26:09
  of
• 26:10
  motivation.
• 26:11
  It's
• 26:12
  quite
• 26:12
  fascinating
• 26:12
  when
• 26:13
  you
• 26:13
  kind
• 26:13
  of
• 26:15
  watch
• 26:15
  it
• 26:16
  sort
• 26:16
  of
• 26:16
  unfold.
• 26:17
  And
• 26:17
  there
• 26:18
  is.
• 26:18
  The
• 26:18
  one
• 26:18
  thing
• 26:18
  is
• 26:19
  for
• 26:19
  certain,
• 26:19
  is
• 26:19
  there
• 26:19
  very
• 26:19
  little
• 26:20
  space
• 26:20
  to
• 26:20
  process
• 26:21
  in
• 26:21
  the
• 26:21
  school
• 26:21
  system?
• 26:22
  Because
• 26:22
  it's
• 26:23
  full
• 26:23
  on,
• 26:24
  you
• 26:24
  know,
• 26:25
  one
• 26:25
  lesson,
• 26:25
  then
• 26:25
  another,
• 26:26
  then
• 26:26
  another,
• 26:26
  then
• 26:26
  another.
• 26:27
  And
• 26:27
  what
• 26:27
  you're
• 26:27
  both
• 26:28
  talking
• 26:28
  about
• 26:28
  is
• 26:28
  really
• 26:28
  interesting,
• 26:29
  this
• 26:29
  idea
• 26:29
  of
• 26:30
  immersion
• 26:31
  learning
• 26:31
  and
• 26:32
  learning
• 26:32
  through
• 26:32
  modeling,
• 26:33
  Right.
• 26:33
  You
• 26:34
  know,
• 26:34
  mirroring
• 26:35
  your
• 26:35
  parents,
• 26:36
  what
• 26:37
  your
• 26:37
  parents
• 26:37
  are
• 26:37
  modeling
• 26:38
  or
• 26:38
  what
• 26:38
  your
• 26:38
  family
• 26:38
  is
• 26:39
  modeling.
• 26:39
  And
• 26:39
  I
• 26:40
  think
• 26:40
  we're
• 26:40
  increasingly
• 26:41
  moving
• 26:41
  into
• 26:41
  a
• 26:41
  world
• 26:41
  where
• 26:42
  we
• 26:42
  don't
• 26:42
  need
• 26:42
  to
• 26:42
  know
• 26:43
  stuff,
• 26:43
  Right.
• 26:44
  What
• 26:44
  we
• 26:44
  need
• 26:45
  are
• 26:45
  skills
• 26:46
  that
• 26:46
  we
• 26:47
  have
• 26:47
  as
• 26:47
  people.
• 26:48
  And
• 26:48
  if
• 26:48
  you
• 26:49
  think
• 26:49
  about,
• 26:49
  okay,
• 26:50
  so
• 26:50
  if
• 26:50
  you
• 26:50
  think
• 26:50
  about,
• 26:50
  okay,
• 26:51
  so
• 26:51
  you
• 26:51
  need
• 26:51
  some
• 26:52
  GCSes
• 26:52
  in
• 26:53
  order
• 26:53
  to
• 26:53
  get
• 26:53
  a
• 26:53
  job
• 26:53
  or
• 26:54
  whatever,
• 26:54
  that's
• 26:54
  fine.
• 26:54
  That's
• 26:55
  a
• 26:55
  separate
• 26:55
  thing.
• 26:55
  That's
• 26:55
  later
• 26:56
  in
• 26:56
  life,
• 26:56
  right?
• 26:56
  But
• 26:57
  let's
• 26:57
  take
• 26:57
  those
• 26:57
  first
• 26:57
  10
• 26:58
  years
• 26:58
  when
• 26:58
  you're
• 26:58
  home
• 26:59
  educating,
• 26:59
  like
• 27:00
  age,
• 27:00
  you
• 27:00
  know,
• 27:01
  2
• 27:01
  to
• 27:01
  12,
• 27:02
  3
• 27:02
  to
• 27:02
  13,
• 27:03
  that
• 27:03
  kind
• 27:03
  of
• 27:03
  age.
• 27:04
  What
• 27:04
  your
• 27:04
  child
• 27:05
  is
• 27:05
  learning
• 27:05
  from
• 27:06
  you,
• 27:06
  regardless
• 27:06
  of
• 27:07
  how
• 27:07
  clever
• 27:07
  in
• 27:07
  adverted
• 27:08
  commas
• 27:08
  you
• 27:08
  are,
• 27:09
  are
• 27:09
  things
• 27:09
  like
• 27:10
  sharing,
• 27:11
  empathy,
• 27:12
  emotional
• 27:12
  regulation
• 27:13
  that
• 27:14
  they
• 27:14
  are
• 27:15
  learning.
• 27:15
  Tolerance.
• 27:16
  They
• 27:16
  are
• 27:16
  learning
• 27:17
  all
• 27:17
  of
• 27:17
  these
• 27:17
  kind
• 27:18
  of
• 27:18
  soft
• 27:19
  skills.
• 27:19
  Patience.
• 27:20
  Yeah,
• 27:20
  exactly.
• 27:21
  They're
• 27:21
  learning
• 27:21
  all
• 27:21
  this
• 27:22
  stuff
• 27:22
  from
• 27:22
  you
• 27:22
  through
• 27:23
  immersion
• 27:23
  and
• 27:23
  through
• 27:24
  modeling.
• 27:24
  Now
• 27:25
  then,
• 27:25
  let's
• 27:25
  pause
• 27:26
  for
• 27:26
  a
• 27:26
  moment
• 27:26
  and
• 27:27
  think
• 27:27
  about.
• 27:27
  Instead,
• 27:28
  they're
• 27:28
  in
• 27:28
  the
• 27:28
  school
• 27:29
  system.
• 27:30
  They're
• 27:30
  in
• 27:30
  school
• 27:30
  for
• 27:30
  eight
• 27:30
  hours
• 27:31
  a
• 27:31
  day,
• 27:31
  five
• 27:32
  days
• 27:32
  a
• 27:32
  week,
• 27:32
  most
• 27:33
  weeks
• 27:33
  of
• 27:33
  the
• 27:33
  year,
• 27:34
  right?
• 27:34
  What.
• 27:35
  What
• 27:35
  are
• 27:35
  they
• 27:36
  learning
• 27:36
  there
• 27:36
  in
• 27:37
  the
• 27:37
  school
• 27:37
  system
• 27:37
  about
• 27:38
  these
• 27:38
  things
• 27:38
  like
• 27:38
  patience,
• 27:39
  emotional
• 27:40
  regulation,
• 27:41
  tolerance,
• 27:42
  empathy.
• 27:43
  You
• 27:43
  are.
• 27:44
  You
• 27:44
  are
• 27:44
  then
• 27:44
  giving
• 27:45
  all
• 27:45
  of
• 27:45
  that
• 27:46
  power
• 27:47
  to
• 27:47
  a
• 27:47
  bunch
• 27:48
  of
• 27:48
  children
• 27:48
  that
• 27:48
  you
• 27:49
  don't
• 27:49
  know.
• 27:49
  They're
• 27:50
  your
• 27:50
  child's
• 27:50
  peers
• 27:51
  and
• 27:51
  a
• 27:51
  teacher
• 27:52
  that
• 27:52
  you
• 27:52
  barely
• 27:52
  know.
• 27:53
  You're
• 27:53
  passing
• 27:54
  all
• 27:54
  of
• 27:54
  your
• 27:54
  child's
• 27:56
  learning
• 27:56
  about
• 27:57
  these
• 27:57
  things
• 27:57
  that
• 27:57
  are
• 27:58
  vital
• 27:58
  for
• 27:58
  the
• 27:58
  whole
• 27:59
  of
• 27:59
  their
• 27:59
  life
• 27:59
  to
• 28:00
  people
• 28:00
  that
• 28:00
  you
• 28:00
  don't
• 28:01
  even
• 28:01
  know
• 28:01
  so
• 28:01
  that
• 28:01
  they
• 28:02
  can
• 28:02
  learn
• 28:02
  the
• 28:02
  facts
• 28:02
  about
• 28:03
  1066
• 28:04
  in
• 28:04
  the
• 28:04
  battle
• 28:04
  of
• 28:05
  Hastings.
• 28:06
  They
• 28:06
  don't
• 28:06
  need
• 28:07
  to
• 28:07
  know
• 28:07
  that.
• 28:07
  What
• 28:07
  they
• 28:07
  need
• 28:08
  is
• 28:08
  to
• 28:08
  sit
• 28:08
  with
• 28:09
  you
• 28:09
  and
• 28:09
  understand
• 28:09
  what
• 28:10
  emotional
• 28:10
  regulation
• 28:11
  is
• 28:11
  in
• 28:11
  the
• 28:11
  safety
• 28:11
  of
• 28:12
  their
• 28:12
  homes.
• 28:13
  Yeah,
• 28:15
  they
• 28:15
  don't
• 28:16
  learn.
• 28:17
  It's
• 28:17
  funny
• 28:18
  how
• 28:18
  much
• 28:19
  the
• 28:20
  mindset
• 28:20
  of
• 28:20
  school
• 28:21
  gives
• 28:22
  children.
• 28:22
  My,
• 28:23
  my
• 28:23
  six
• 28:24
  year
• 28:24
  old
• 28:24
  only
• 28:24
  went
• 28:25
  for
• 28:25
  six
• 28:26
  weeks
• 28:26
  to
• 28:26
  school
• 28:27
  and
• 28:27
  she
• 28:28
  had
• 28:28
  started
• 28:28
  obviously
• 28:29
  doing,
• 28:29
  you
• 28:29
  know,
• 28:29
  the
• 28:30
  phonics,
• 28:30
  the
• 28:31
  read,
• 28:31
  the
• 28:31
  sounds,
• 28:32
  that
• 28:32
  nonsense.
• 28:34
  And
• 28:35
  she
• 28:36
  now,
• 28:36
  so
• 28:36
  she's
• 28:37
  nearly
• 28:38
  seven
• 28:39
  and
• 28:40
  she
• 28:40
  doesn't
• 28:40
  think
• 28:41
  that
• 28:41
  she
• 28:41
  can
• 28:41
  read
• 28:42
  because
• 28:42
  she
• 28:43
  can't
• 28:43
  sound
• 28:44
  them
• 28:44
  out
• 28:44
  and
• 28:44
  blend
• 28:45
  it
• 28:45
  together.
• 28:46
  She
• 28:46
  doesn't
• 28:46
  think
• 28:47
  that
• 28:47
  she
• 28:47
  can
• 28:47
  read.
• 28:48
  But
• 28:48
  like
• 28:48
  this
• 28:48
  morning
• 28:50
  she's
• 28:50
  looking
• 28:50
  at
• 28:50
  the
• 28:50
  sat
• 28:51
  nav
• 28:51
  now,
• 28:52
  the
• 28:52
  words
• 28:52
  were
• 28:52
  Sudbury,
• 28:53
  which
• 28:54
  makes
• 28:54
  absolutely
• 28:55
  no
• 28:55
  phonetical
• 28:56
  sense,
• 28:56
  and
• 28:57
  gymnastics,
• 28:58
  which
• 28:58
  also
• 28:58
  makes
• 28:59
  absolutely
• 29:00
  no
• 29:00
  phonetical
• 29:01
  sense.
• 29:01
  And
• 29:01
  she
• 29:01
  went,
• 29:01
  mummy,
• 29:02
  does
• 29:02
  that
• 29:02
  say
• 29:02
  Sudbury
• 29:02
  gymnastics?
• 29:03
  And
• 29:03
  I
• 29:03
  went,
• 29:04
  yeah,
• 29:04
  I
• 29:04
  went,
• 29:05
  so
• 29:05
  you've
• 29:05
  just
• 29:05
  read
• 29:05
  that
• 29:05
  she
• 29:05
  went,
• 29:06
  no,
• 29:06
  I
• 29:06
  didn't,
• 29:06
  I
• 29:06
  just
• 29:06
  guessed.
• 29:07
  I'm
• 29:07
  like,
• 29:07
  that's
• 29:08
  reading.
• 29:08
  But
• 29:09
  in
• 29:09
  her
• 29:09
  head,
• 29:10
  because
• 29:10
  she
• 29:10
  doesn't
• 29:11
  do
• 29:11
  the
• 29:11
  sound,
• 29:12
  which
• 29:12
  is
• 29:12
  what
• 29:12
  school
• 29:13
  told
• 29:13
  her
• 29:13
  is
• 29:14
  reading.
• 29:14
  She
• 29:15
  doesn't
• 29:15
  think
• 29:15
  she
• 29:16
  can
• 29:16
  read.
• 29:16
  So
• 29:16
  when
• 29:16
  she's
• 29:17
  asked,
• 29:17
  oh,
• 29:18
  can
• 29:18
  you
• 29:18
  read?
• 29:18
  She
• 29:18
  goes,
• 29:18
  no,
• 29:19
  I
• 29:19
  don't
• 29:19
  know
• 29:19
  how
• 29:19
  to
• 29:19
  read
• 29:19
  yet,
• 29:20
  but
• 29:20
  she
• 29:20
  can
• 29:20
  read.
• 29:21
  She
• 29:21
  just,
• 29:22
  the
• 29:22
  school
• 29:22
  have
• 29:23
  told
• 29:23
  her
• 29:24
  that
• 29:24
  reading
• 29:25
  is
• 29:26
  doing
• 29:26
  it
• 29:27
  phonetically
• 29:27
  and
• 29:27
  sounding
• 29:28
  it
• 29:28
  out.
• 29:28
  And
• 29:28
  in
• 29:28
  her
• 29:29
  head
• 29:29
  she's
• 29:29
  like,
• 29:29
  well,
• 29:29
  I
• 29:30
  can't
• 29:30
  do
• 29:30
  that,
• 29:30
  so
• 29:31
  I
• 29:31
  can't
• 29:31
  read.
• 29:31
  And
• 29:32
  that's
• 29:33
  really
• 29:33
  like
• 29:33
  damaging
• 29:34
  for
• 29:34
  a
• 29:35
  child
• 29:35
  to
• 29:35
  tell
• 29:36
  them
• 29:36
  that
• 29:37
  because
• 29:37
  they
• 29:37
  aren't
• 29:37
  doing
• 29:38
  it
• 29:38
  the
• 29:38
  way
• 29:38
  that
• 29:38
  it's
• 29:39
  taught
• 29:39
  in
• 29:39
  school,
• 29:39
  that
• 29:40
  they
• 29:40
  can't
• 29:40
  do
• 29:40
  it
• 29:40
  at
• 29:41
  all.
• 29:41
  And
• 29:42
  the
• 29:42
  real
• 29:42
  sense
• 29:43
  of
• 29:43
  the
• 29:43
  matter
• 29:43
  with
• 29:43
  her
• 29:44
  is
• 29:44
  you
• 29:45
  probably
• 29:45
  touched
• 29:45
  on
• 29:45
  it,
• 29:46
  on
• 29:46
  your
• 29:46
  neurodivergent
• 29:47
  episode
• 29:47
  is
• 29:47
  that
• 29:48
  she's
• 29:48
  ADHD
• 29:49
  and
• 29:49
  she
• 29:49
  can't
• 29:50
  sit
• 29:50
  and
• 29:50
  read
• 29:50
  a
• 29:50
  book,
• 29:51
  has
• 29:52
  absolutely
• 29:52
  no
• 29:53
  capacity
• 29:53
  to
• 29:53
  be
• 29:54
  able
• 29:54
  to
• 29:54
  sit
• 29:54
  and
• 29:54
  read
• 29:55
  a
• 29:55
  whole
• 29:55
  book.
• 29:55
  She
• 29:56
  doesn't
• 29:56
  want
• 29:56
  to,
• 29:56
  she
• 29:57
  has
• 29:57
  no
• 29:57
  interest
• 29:57
  in
• 29:57
  it,
• 29:57
  she
• 29:58
  doesn't
• 29:58
  care,
• 29:58
  she
• 29:58
  doesn't
• 29:58
  like
• 29:59
  reading,
• 29:59
  but
• 30:00
  she
• 30:00
  can
• 30:00
  read
• 30:01
  the
• 30:01
  things
• 30:01
  that
• 30:01
  she
• 30:01
  wants
• 30:02
  to
• 30:02
  read.
• 30:02
  Like
• 30:03
  she
• 30:03
  very
• 30:03
  much
• 30:03
  needs
• 30:04
  to
• 30:04
  know
• 30:04
  when
• 30:04
  the
• 30:04
  sat
• 30:05
  nav
• 30:05
  is
• 30:05
  telling
• 30:05
  us
• 30:05
  that
• 30:05
  we're
• 30:06
  going
• 30:06
  to
• 30:06
  get
• 30:06
  there.
• 30:06
  So
• 30:06
  she
• 30:06
  has
• 30:07
  taught
• 30:07
  herself
• 30:07
  how
• 30:08
  to
• 30:08
  read
• 30:08
  the
• 30:08
  sat
• 30:08
  nav
• 30:08
  to
• 30:09
  know
• 30:09
  when
• 30:09
  we're
• 30:09
  going
• 30:09
  to
• 30:09
  get
• 30:09
  there.
• 30:10
  So
• 30:11
  it's
• 30:11
  not
• 30:11
  that
• 30:11
  she
• 30:11
  can't
• 30:12
  read,
• 30:12
  it's
• 30:12
  that
• 30:12
  she
• 30:12
  just
• 30:13
  can't
• 30:13
  do
• 30:13
  it
• 30:13
  in
• 30:13
  the
• 30:13
  way
• 30:14
  they
• 30:14
  told
• 30:14
  her
• 30:14
  that
• 30:15
  she
• 30:15
  has
• 30:15
  to
• 30:15
  do
• 30:15
  it.
• 30:16
  And
• 30:16
  I
• 30:16
  just
• 30:16
  think
• 30:17
  how
• 30:17
  horrible
• 30:17
  is
• 30:17
  that
• 30:18
  for
• 30:18
  a
• 30:18
  four
• 30:18
  year
• 30:18
  old
• 30:19
  to
• 30:19
  be
• 30:19
  told
• 30:19
  that
• 30:20
  actually
• 30:20
  you
• 30:21
  can't
• 30:21
  do
• 30:21
  the
• 30:22
  same
• 30:22
  thing
• 30:22
  that
• 30:22
  everybody
• 30:23
  else
• 30:23
  is
• 30:23
  doing
• 30:24
  when
• 30:24
  she,
• 30:24
  the
• 30:25
  end
• 30:25
  result,
• 30:25
  she
• 30:26
  can,
• 30:26
  she
• 30:26
  can
• 30:26
  read.
• 30:27
  It's
• 30:27
  Just
• 30:27
  she
• 30:28
  didn't
• 30:28
  get
• 30:28
  there
• 30:28
  in
• 30:29
  the
• 30:29
  same
• 30:29
  way.
• 30:30
  And
• 30:30
  that's
• 30:31
  that
• 30:31
  for
• 30:32
  the
• 30:32
  school
• 30:32
  system
• 30:32
  to
• 30:32
  be
• 30:33
  in
• 30:33
  part
• 30:34
  in
• 30:34
  that
• 30:34
  on
• 30:34
  children
• 30:35
  of
• 30:36
  four
• 30:36
  is
• 30:37
  very,
• 30:37
  very
• 30:37
  dangerous
• 30:38
  mindset
• 30:39
  to
• 30:39
  have
• 30:39
  moving
• 30:40
  forward,
• 30:40
  like
• 30:41
  for
• 30:41
  the
• 30:41
  rest
• 30:42
  of
• 30:42
  their
• 30:42
  life.
• 30:42
  Right.
• 30:43
  And
• 30:44
  also,
• 30:44
  you
• 30:44
  just
• 30:45
  talking
• 30:45
  about
• 30:45
  phonics,
• 30:46
  I
• 30:46
  think
• 30:46
  that's
• 30:46
  a
• 30:46
  prime
• 30:47
  example
• 30:47
  of
• 30:48
  how
• 30:49
  the
• 30:49
  education
• 30:50
  system
• 30:50
  has
• 30:51
  developed
• 30:52
  and
• 30:52
  changed.
• 30:54
  But
• 30:55
  we,
• 30:56
  when
• 30:56
  I
• 30:57
  went
• 30:57
  to
• 30:57
  school,
• 30:57
  phonics
• 30:58
  didn't
• 30:58
  exist.
• 30:58
  I
• 30:59
  didn't
• 30:59
  learn
• 30:59
  like
• 30:59
  that
• 30:59
  at
• 30:59
  all.
• 31:00
  Yeah,
• 31:01
  we
• 31:01
  learned
• 31:01
  to
• 31:02
  read.
• 31:03
  And
• 31:03
  also,
• 31:04
  are
• 31:05
  we
• 31:05
  saying
• 31:05
  that
• 31:07
  now
• 31:07
  if
• 31:07
  you
• 31:08
  don't
• 31:08
  know
• 31:08
  phonics,
• 31:09
  you're
• 31:10
  not
• 31:10
  a
• 31:10
  teacher
• 31:10
  who's
• 31:11
  been
• 31:11
  taught
• 31:11
  how
• 31:11
  to
• 31:11
  teach
• 31:12
  phonics.
• 31:12
  You
• 31:12
  therefore
• 31:12
  can't
• 31:13
  teach
• 31:13
  reading.
• 31:14
  But
• 31:14
  we
• 31:14
  learned
• 31:15
  to
• 31:15
  read
• 31:15
  without
• 31:15
  phonics.
• 31:17
  I
• 31:17
  did
• 31:17
  a
• 31:17
  whole
• 31:17
  podcast
• 31:18
  on
• 31:18
  phonics
• 31:18
  and
• 31:19
  it
• 31:19
  was
• 31:19
  funny
• 31:19
  because
• 31:20
  for
• 31:20
  anyone
• 31:20
  who
• 31:21
  wants
• 31:21
  to
• 31:21
  listen,
• 31:21
  I'll
• 31:22
  put
• 31:22
  the
• 31:22
  link.
• 31:22
  Because
• 31:23
  I
• 31:23
  didn't
• 31:23
  realize
• 31:24
  before
• 31:24
  I
• 31:24
  started
• 31:25
  the
• 31:25
  podcast
• 31:25
  how
• 31:25
  controversial
• 31:27
  phonics
• 31:27
  is.
• 31:28
  Oh,
• 31:28
  phonics
• 31:28
  is.
• 31:28
  No
• 31:29
  idea.
• 31:32
  It
• 31:32
  was
• 31:32
  like,
• 31:33
  okay,
• 31:33
  this
• 31:34
  is
• 31:34
  a
• 31:34
  thing.
• 31:34
  I
• 31:34
  did
• 31:34
  not
• 31:35
  even
• 31:35
  realize
• 31:35
  was
• 31:35
  a
• 31:35
  thing
• 31:36
  because
• 31:36
  apparently,
• 31:37
  like
• 31:37
  they
• 31:37
  just
• 31:38
  introduced
• 31:38
  phonics
• 31:39
  almost
• 31:40
  overnight.
• 31:41
  Like,
• 31:41
  this
• 31:41
  is
• 31:42
  like
• 31:42
  an
• 31:42
  edict
• 31:43
  from
• 31:43
  above.
• 31:43
  We
• 31:43
  were
• 31:43
  doing
• 31:44
  phonics.
• 31:44
  And
• 31:44
  as
• 31:45
  Charlotte
• 31:45
  says,
• 31:45
  for
• 31:45
  a
• 31:46
  lot
• 31:46
  of
• 31:46
  neurodivergent
• 31:47
  children,
• 31:47
  phonics
• 31:47
  is
• 31:47
  an
• 31:48
  absolute
• 31:48
  disaster.
• 31:50
  My
• 31:50
  daughter's
• 31:50
  dyslexic.
• 31:51
  If
• 31:51
  she'd
• 31:51
  been
• 31:52
  in
• 31:52
  school,
• 31:52
  she'd
• 31:53
  never
• 31:53
  have
• 31:53
  been
• 31:53
  able
• 31:54
  to
• 31:54
  learn
• 31:54
  to
• 31:54
  read.
• 31:54
  With
• 31:54
  phonics,
• 31:55
  it
• 31:55
  was.
• 31:55
  Would
• 31:56
  never
• 31:56
  have
• 31:56
  happened.
• 31:57
  And
• 31:57
  she
• 31:57
  would
• 31:57
  literally
• 31:58
  be
• 31:58
  like
• 31:58
  12
• 31:59
  and
• 31:59
  crying
• 31:59
  if
• 32:00
  that,
• 32:00
  if
• 32:00
  that
• 32:00
  had
• 32:01
  been
• 32:01
  the
• 32:01
  case,
• 32:01
  if
• 32:01
  that
• 32:01
  had
• 32:01
  been
• 32:02
  her
• 32:02
  experience.
• 32:02
  And
• 32:02
  as
• 32:03
  it
• 32:03
  was,
• 32:03
  I
• 32:03
  tried
• 32:04
  phonics.
• 32:04
  Biff
• 32:05
  Chip
• 32:05
  Kipper
• 32:06
  did
• 32:06
  one
• 32:06
  book
• 32:06
  and
• 32:06
  she
• 32:07
  was
• 32:07
  like,
• 32:07
  nah.
• 32:07
  And
• 32:08
  then
• 32:08
  we
• 32:08
  did
• 32:08
  Peter
• 32:08
  and
• 32:08
  Jane
• 32:09
  and
• 32:09
  that
• 32:10
  was
• 32:10
  absolutely
• 32:10
  fine.
• 32:10
  She
• 32:10
  just
• 32:11
  memorized
• 32:11
  the
• 32:12
  visual
• 32:12
  look
• 32:12
  of
• 32:12
  the
• 32:13
  words.
• 32:13
  And
• 32:13
  then
• 32:13
  she
• 32:13
  was
• 32:13
  reading
• 32:14
  at
• 32:14
  5.
• 32:15
  Being
• 32:15
  dyslexic
• 32:15
  in
• 32:16
  the
• 32:16
  school
• 32:16
  system,
• 32:16
  I
• 32:16
  dread
• 32:17
  to
• 32:17
  think
• 32:17
  what
• 32:17
  would
• 32:17
  happen.
• 32:18
  So
• 32:18
  now
• 32:18
  people
• 32:18
  are
• 32:18
  saying,
• 32:19
  oh,
• 32:19
  you're
• 32:19
  not
• 32:19
  clever
• 32:20
  enough
• 32:20
  to
• 32:20
  home
• 32:20
  educate
• 32:20
  your
• 32:21
  child.
• 32:21
  Well,
• 32:21
  I
• 32:21
  kind
• 32:21
  of
• 32:21
  think
• 32:22
  we
• 32:22
  all
• 32:22
  are,
• 32:22
  actually,
• 32:23
  because
• 32:23
  we
• 32:23
  know
• 32:23
  our
• 32:24
  child,
• 32:24
  right?
• 32:25
  Yeah,
• 32:25
  they
• 32:25
  changed
• 32:26
  it
• 32:26
  through
• 32:26
  the
• 32:26
  middle
• 32:27
  of.
• 32:27
  I
• 32:27
  think
• 32:27
  it
• 32:28
  was.
• 32:28
  I
• 32:28
  think
• 32:28
  it
• 32:29
  was
• 32:29
  my
• 32:29
  10
• 32:29
  year
• 32:29
  old.
• 32:30
  I
• 32:30
  think
• 32:30
  they
• 32:30
  changed
• 32:31
  it.
• 32:31
  Like
• 32:32
  she
• 32:32
  learned
• 32:32
  how
• 32:33
  to
• 32:33
  read
• 32:33
  the
• 32:33
  other
• 32:33
  way.
• 32:34
  And
• 32:34
  then
• 32:34
  all
• 32:34
  of
• 32:34
  a
• 32:34
  sudden
• 32:35
  it
• 32:35
  was
• 32:35
  then
• 32:36
  phonics
• 32:36
  and
• 32:36
  she
• 32:37
  was
• 32:37
  then
• 32:37
  being
• 32:37
  taught
• 32:38
  how.
• 32:38
  So
• 32:38
  actually
• 32:38
  the
• 32:39
  method
• 32:39
  that
• 32:39
  she
• 32:39
  learned
• 32:40
  first
• 32:40
  was
• 32:41
  completely
• 32:41
  scrapped.
• 32:42
  And
• 32:42
  no,
• 32:42
  that
• 32:43
  doesn't
• 32:43
  count
• 32:43
  anymore.
• 32:44
  And
• 32:44
  now
• 32:44
  you
• 32:44
  need
• 32:44
  to
• 32:44
  do
• 32:44
  it
• 32:44
  like
• 32:45
  this,
• 32:45
  which.
• 32:45
  Imagine
• 32:46
  being
• 32:46
  five
• 32:47
  and
• 32:47
  then
• 32:47
  Being
• 32:47
  told
• 32:48
  everything
• 32:48
  you
• 32:49
  ever
• 32:49
  know.
• 32:50
  Absolute
• 32:50
  turd.
• 32:51
  Not
• 32:51
  happening
• 32:52
  anymore.
• 32:52
  That's
• 32:53
  it.
• 32:53
  Like,
• 32:53
  it's
• 32:54
  just
• 32:54
  crazy.
• 32:54
  It's
• 32:54
  mad.
• 32:55
  This
• 32:55
  is
• 32:56
  also
• 32:56
  part
• 32:56
  of
• 32:56
  the
• 32:56
  issue,
• 32:57
  if
• 32:57
  we
• 32:57
  take
• 32:57
  the
• 32:58
  discussion
• 32:58
  slightly
• 32:59
  more
• 32:59
  global,
• 33:00
  is
• 33:00
  that
• 33:01
  you're
• 33:01
  relying,
• 33:02
  when
• 33:02
  you
• 33:02
  put
• 33:02
  your
• 33:02
  child
• 33:03
  into
• 33:03
  school,
• 33:03
  you're
• 33:04
  relying
• 33:04
  upon
• 33:05
  the
• 33:05
  school
• 33:06
  curriculum,
• 33:07
  teaching
• 33:08
  your
• 33:08
  child
• 33:08
  the
• 33:09
  correct
• 33:09
  in
• 33:09
  inverted
• 33:10
  commas,
• 33:10
  facts.
• 33:11
  And
• 33:11
  actually,
• 33:11
  if
• 33:12
  you
• 33:12
  just
• 33:12
  look
• 33:12
  at
• 33:12
  the
• 33:13
  American
• 33:13
  system,
• 33:14
  for
• 33:14
  a
• 33:14
  start,
• 33:14
  the
• 33:15
  American
• 33:15
  school
• 33:15
  system,
• 33:16
  some
• 33:17
  of
• 33:17
  their
• 33:17
  history
• 33:17
  books
• 33:18
  and
• 33:18
  science
• 33:18
  books
• 33:18
  would
• 33:19
  make
• 33:19
  your
• 33:19
  hair
• 33:19
  curl,
• 33:20
  you
• 33:20
  know,
• 33:20
  and
• 33:21
  yet
• 33:21
  that
• 33:21
  is
• 33:21
  being
• 33:22
  taught
• 33:22
  as
• 33:23
  the.
• 33:23
  These
• 33:24
  are
• 33:24
  the
• 33:24
  facts
• 33:25
  and
• 33:25
  I
• 33:25
  am
• 33:26
  clever
• 33:26
  and
• 33:26
  I'm
• 33:26
  at
• 33:26
  the
• 33:27
  front
• 33:27
  of
• 33:27
  the
• 33:27
  class
• 33:27
  and
• 33:27
  I'm
• 33:27
  telling
• 33:28
  you.
• 33:28
  But
• 33:28
  this
• 33:28
  is
• 33:28
  government
• 33:28
  decided.
• 33:29
  I
• 33:29
  mean,
• 33:29
  you
• 33:30
  don't
• 33:30
  need
• 33:30
  to
• 33:30
  live
• 33:30
  in
• 33:30
  North
• 33:31
  Korea
• 33:31
  to
• 33:32
  be
• 33:32
  in
• 33:32
  a
• 33:32
  country
• 33:32
  where
• 33:33
  you're
• 33:33
  being
• 33:33
  taught
• 33:34
  extremely
• 33:34
  selective
• 33:35
  facts.
• 33:35
  Let's
• 33:35
  look
• 33:36
  at
• 33:36
  the
• 33:36
  UK
• 33:36
  and
• 33:36
  its
• 33:36
  history
• 33:37
  of
• 33:37
  colonialism.
• 33:37
  I
• 33:38
  mean,
• 33:38
  what
• 33:38
  you
• 33:38
  are
• 33:38
  doing
• 33:39
  is
• 33:39
  you're
• 33:40
  putting
• 33:40
  your
• 33:40
  child
• 33:40
  into
• 33:40
  a
• 33:41
  school
• 33:41
  system
• 33:41
  where
• 33:42
  somebody
• 33:42
  else
• 33:43
  is
• 33:43
  deciding
• 33:44
  what
• 33:44
  the
• 33:44
  truth
• 33:45
  is.
• 33:45
  And
• 33:46
  actually
• 33:46
  it's
• 33:46
  for
• 33:46
  your
• 33:47
  child
• 33:47
  to
• 33:48
  be
• 33:48
  asking
• 33:48
  those
• 33:49
  questions
• 33:49
  and
• 33:49
  deciding.
• 33:50
  Right.
• 33:50
  Yeah,
• 33:51
  they,
• 33:51
  they,
• 33:52
  they
• 33:52
  had
• 33:53
  it
• 33:53
  with.
• 33:55
  My
• 33:55
  son's
• 33:56
  when
• 33:56
  he
• 33:56
  was
• 33:56
  still
• 33:56
  at
• 33:56
  senior
• 33:57
  school
• 33:57
  with.
• 33:58
  They
• 33:58
  call
• 33:59
  it
• 34:00
  pshe.
• 34:01
  Physical
• 34:02
  something.
• 34:03
  Health
• 34:03
  education.
• 34:05
  And
• 34:06
  the
• 34:06
  thing
• 34:07
  that
• 34:07
  came
• 34:07
  home
• 34:08
  of
• 34:08
  what
• 34:08
  was
• 34:09
  the
• 34:09
  truth
• 34:09
  of
• 34:10
  what's
• 34:10
  going
• 34:10
  on,
• 34:11
  he
• 34:11
  came
• 34:11
  home
• 34:12
  and
• 34:12
  he
• 34:12
  was
• 34:12
  like,
• 34:13
  mum,
• 34:13
  what?
• 34:14
  What?
• 34:15
  I
• 34:15
  was
• 34:15
  very
• 34:15
  upset
• 34:16
  and
• 34:16
  I
• 34:16
  don't
• 34:16
  know
• 34:16
  if
• 34:16
  this
• 34:17
  is
• 34:17
  too
• 34:17
  topical
• 34:18
  on
• 34:18
  here,
• 34:18
  so
• 34:18
  delete
• 34:19
  me
• 34:19
  if
• 34:19
  you
• 34:19
  need
• 34:19
  to,
• 34:20
  but
• 34:20
  they
• 34:21
  were
• 34:21
  actually
• 34:22
  cancel
• 34:23
  me.
• 34:23
  They
• 34:23
  were
• 34:23
  talking
• 34:24
  about
• 34:24
  abortion
• 34:25
  and
• 34:26
  my.
• 34:26
  Son
• 34:27
  was
• 34:27
  12
• 34:27
  and
• 34:28
  came
• 34:28
  home
• 34:28
  and
• 34:28
  telling
• 34:29
  me
• 34:29
  what
• 34:29
  abortion
• 34:30
  is
• 34:30
  and
• 34:30
  when
• 34:30
  you
• 34:30
  should
• 34:30
  have
• 34:31
  one
• 34:31
  and
• 34:31
  when
• 34:31
  you
• 34:31
  shouldn't.
• 34:32
  And
• 34:32
  I
• 34:32
  just
• 34:32
  thought
• 34:33
  that's
• 34:33
  a
• 34:34
  really,
• 34:34
  really
• 34:35
  personal
• 34:36
  subject
• 34:37
  for
• 34:37
  a
• 34:38
  family
• 34:38
  to.
• 34:38
  You
• 34:39
  don't
• 34:39
  know
• 34:39
  what
• 34:39
  views
• 34:40
  that
• 34:40
  family
• 34:40
  have
• 34:40
  got.
• 34:41
  You
• 34:41
  don't
• 34:41
  know
• 34:41
  what
• 34:42
  religion
• 34:42
  that
• 34:43
  family's
• 34:43
  got.
• 34:43
  You
• 34:43
  don't
• 34:44
  know
• 34:44
  what
• 34:44
  things
• 34:45
  the
• 34:45
  parent
• 34:46
  has
• 34:46
  been
• 34:46
  through
• 34:47
  for
• 34:47
  you
• 34:47
  to
• 34:48
  then
• 34:48
  be
• 34:48
  teaching
• 34:48
  their
• 34:49
  child.
• 34:49
  I
• 34:49
  think
• 34:50
  that
• 34:50
  things
• 34:50
  like
• 34:50
  that,
• 34:51
  you
• 34:51
  need
• 34:51
  to
• 34:52
  teach
• 34:52
  your
• 34:52
  child
• 34:52
  what
• 34:52
  your
• 34:53
  family
• 34:53
  believes
• 34:54
  and
• 34:54
  what
• 34:54
  you
• 34:55
  hold
• 34:55
  close
• 34:55
  to
• 34:56
  you.
• 34:56
  But
• 34:56
  to
• 34:57
  generically
• 34:57
  teach
• 34:58
  30
• 34:58
  students
• 34:59
  or
• 34:59
  100
• 35:00
  students
• 35:00
  in
• 35:00
  that
• 35:00
  year,
• 35:01
  that
• 35:01
  abortion
• 35:02
  is
• 35:02
  this,
• 35:02
  and
• 35:03
  this
• 35:03
  is
• 35:03
  when
• 35:03
  you
• 35:03
  have
• 35:03
  it
• 35:04
  and
• 35:04
  this
• 35:04
  is
• 35:04
  when
• 35:04
  you
• 35:04
  don't
• 35:05
  have
• 35:05
  it.
• 35:05
  What?
• 35:06
  Like
• 35:06
  how.
• 35:07
  Why
• 35:07
  are
• 35:07
  we
• 35:07
  allowed
• 35:08
  to
• 35:08
  teach
• 35:08
  children
• 35:09
  this?
• 35:09
  It's,
• 35:10
  it's,
• 35:10
  it's
• 35:11
  insane.
• 35:11
  It's
• 35:11
  crazy.
• 35:12
  And
• 35:13
  also
• 35:13
  they're
• 35:13
  deciding
• 35:14
  that
• 35:14
  your
• 35:14
  child's.
• 35:15
  Ready
• 35:15
  to
• 35:15
  learn
• 35:16
  about
• 35:16
  that
• 35:16
  as
• 35:17
  well.
• 35:17
  Yeah.
• 35:18
  You
• 35:18
  know,
• 35:18
  again,
• 35:18
  we've
• 35:19
  touched
• 35:19
  on
• 35:19
  neurodiversity
• 35:21
  and,
• 35:21
  you
• 35:22
  know,
• 35:22
  there's
• 35:22
  different
• 35:22
  levels
• 35:23
  of
• 35:23
  maturity
• 35:23
  that
• 35:23
  children
• 35:24
  have.
• 35:25
  Yeah.
• 35:25
  And
• 35:25
  you're
• 35:26
  saying
• 35:27
  at
• 35:27
  this
• 35:27
  age,
• 35:28
  every
• 35:28
  child
• 35:29
  needs
• 35:29
  to
• 35:29
  know
• 35:29
  this
• 35:30
  information,
• 35:30
  but
• 35:30
  they
• 35:30
  might
• 35:30
  not
• 35:31
  be
• 35:31
  ready
• 35:31
  for
• 35:31
  that.
• 35:32
  My
• 35:32
  children
• 35:34
  are
• 35:34
  very
• 35:35
  different
• 35:35
  in
• 35:35
  their
• 35:36
  ability
• 35:37
  to
• 35:37
  accept
• 35:38
  information
• 35:38
  or
• 35:39
  be
• 35:39
  affected
• 35:39
  by
• 35:40
  it
• 35:40
  in
• 35:40
  different
• 35:40
  ways.
• 35:40
  And
• 35:41
  I
• 35:41
  know
• 35:41
  that
• 35:41
  about
• 35:42
  them
• 35:42
  and
• 35:42
  therefore
• 35:42
  I
• 35:43
  can
• 35:43
  tailor
• 35:43
  the
• 35:43
  information
• 35:44
  that
• 35:45
  they
• 35:45
  receive.
• 35:46
  And
• 35:47
  in
• 35:48
  a
• 35:49
  classroom
• 35:49
  situation,
• 35:50
  you
• 35:51
  can't
• 35:51
  know
• 35:52
  that
• 35:52
  about
• 35:52
  every
• 35:53
  child.
• 35:53
  You
• 35:53
  can't
• 35:54
  know
• 35:54
  what
• 35:54
  that
• 35:54
  child's
• 35:55
  going
• 35:55
  through
• 35:55
  at
• 35:56
  home.
• 35:57
  You
• 35:57
  know,
• 35:57
  what
• 35:57
  if
• 35:57
  their
• 35:57
  family
• 35:58
  has
• 35:58
  just
• 35:58
  gone
• 35:59
  through
• 35:59
  the
• 35:59
  loss
• 36:00
  of
• 36:00
  a
• 36:00
  child
• 36:00
  or
• 36:01
  something,
• 36:01
  and
• 36:01
  then
• 36:02
  you
• 36:02
  are
• 36:02
  teaching
• 36:02
  about
• 36:03
  abortion
• 36:04
  or
• 36:04
  miscarriage
• 36:05
  or
• 36:06
  those
• 36:06
  kind
• 36:06
  of
• 36:07
  controversial
• 36:08
  issues.
• 36:09
  When
• 36:10
  someone,
• 36:10
  maybe
• 36:11
  one
• 36:11
  of
• 36:11
  those
• 36:12
  children,
• 36:12
  maybe
• 36:12
  that
• 36:13
  may
• 36:13
  be
• 36:13
  their
• 36:13
  lived
• 36:14
  experience
• 36:14
  right
• 36:14
  now.
• 36:15
  Yeah.
• 36:16
  And
• 36:16
  what
• 36:16
  are
• 36:16
  you
• 36:17
  putting
• 36:17
  in
• 36:17
  place
• 36:18
  to
• 36:18
  support
• 36:19
  their
• 36:20
  needs
• 36:20
  in
• 36:20
  that
• 36:20
  moment?
• 36:21
  You're
• 36:21
  not.
• 36:21
  You're
• 36:22
  just
• 36:22
  imparting
• 36:22
  a
• 36:22
  load
• 36:23
  of
• 36:23
  information,
• 36:24
  potentially
• 36:24
  triggering
• 36:25
  them
• 36:25
  and
• 36:26
  then
• 36:26
  walking
• 36:27
  away.
• 36:28
  Yeah.
• 36:28
  And
• 36:29
  I,
• 36:29
  I
• 36:30
  find
• 36:30
  that
• 36:31
  fascinating
• 36:31
  as
• 36:32
  well.
• 36:32
  I
• 36:32
  mean,
• 36:32
  even
• 36:32
  just
• 36:33
  with
• 36:33
  history,
• 36:33
  you
• 36:34
  know,
• 36:34
  my
• 36:34
  children
• 36:34
  at
• 36:35
  about
• 36:35
  the
• 36:35
  Great
• 36:35
  Fire
• 36:35
  of
• 36:35
  London
• 36:36
  and
• 36:36
  then
• 36:36
  had
• 36:36
  Nightma
• 36:37
  about
• 36:37
  it,
• 36:38
  but
• 36:38
  I
• 36:38
  was
• 36:38
  there
• 36:38
  to
• 36:39
  support
• 36:39
  them
• 36:39
  through
• 36:39
  that.
• 36:40
  And
• 36:40
  I
• 36:40
  knew
• 36:41
  what
• 36:41
  I
• 36:41
  had,
• 36:41
  what
• 36:41
  we'd
• 36:42
  talked
• 36:42
  about
• 36:43
  and
• 36:43
  what
• 36:44
  they
• 36:44
  had
• 36:44
  learned.
• 36:46
  And
• 36:47
  I
• 36:47
  knew
• 36:47
  to
• 36:47
  then
• 36:48
  avoid.
• 36:49
  Avoid
• 36:50
  that.
• 36:52
  I
• 36:53
  don't
• 36:53
  know,
• 36:54
  I'm
• 36:54
  out.
• 36:56
  But
• 36:57
  imagine
• 36:57
  if
• 36:57
  they'd
• 36:58
  come
• 36:58
  home
• 36:58
  and
• 36:58
  then
• 36:58
  we're
• 36:59
  having
• 36:59
  nightmares
• 36:59
  and
• 36:59
  they
• 36:59
  might
• 37:00
  not
• 37:00
  have
• 37:00
  been
• 37:00
  able
• 37:00
  to
• 37:01
  even
• 37:02
  know
• 37:03
  where
• 37:03
  that
• 37:04
  was
• 37:04
  coming
• 37:04
  from.
• 37:05
  For
• 37:05
  me
• 37:05
  to
• 37:06
  know
• 37:07
  what
• 37:07
  they'd
• 37:07
  been
• 37:08
  taught
• 37:08
  or
• 37:08
  what
• 37:09
  had
• 37:09
  happened
• 37:09
  in
• 37:09
  the
• 37:10
  classroom
• 37:10
  that
• 37:11
  was
• 37:11
  causing
• 37:12
  that
• 37:13
  emotional
• 37:13
  response
• 37:14
  from
• 37:14
  them.
• 37:14
  And
• 37:15
  I,
• 37:15
  you
• 37:15
  know,
• 37:16
  you
• 37:16
  don't.
• 37:17
  For
• 37:17
  some
• 37:17
  children,
• 37:17
  they're
• 37:18
  going
• 37:18
  to
• 37:18
  be
• 37:18
  like,
• 37:18
  yeah,
• 37:18
  great,
• 37:19
  Great
• 37:19
  Fire
• 37:19
  of
• 37:19
  London.
• 37:20
  It's
• 37:20
  not
• 37:20
  going
• 37:20
  to
• 37:20
  affect
• 37:20
  them
• 37:21
  at
• 37:21
  all.
• 37:21
  But
• 37:21
  other
• 37:21
  children
• 37:21
  are
• 37:22
  sensitive
• 37:22
  or,
• 37:23
  you
• 37:23
  know,
• 37:24
  it,
• 37:24
  you
• 37:24
  know,
• 37:25
  may
• 37:25
  have
• 37:25
  had
• 37:25
  a
• 37:25
  fire
• 37:26
  in
• 37:26
  their,
• 37:26
  in
• 37:27
  their
• 37:27
  home
• 37:27
  at
• 37:28
  some
• 37:28
  point.
• 37:28
  And
• 37:28
  so
• 37:28
  it
• 37:29
  scares
• 37:29
  them.
• 37:29
  There
• 37:30
  are
• 37:30
  so
• 37:30
  many
• 37:30
  different.
• 37:31
  You
• 37:31
  just.
• 37:34
  We
• 37:34
  all
• 37:34
  develop
• 37:36
  at
• 37:36
  different
• 37:36
  rates.
• 37:37
  We
• 37:37
  all,
• 37:39
  you
• 37:39
  know,
• 37:39
  cope
• 37:40
  with
• 37:40
  things
• 37:40
  in
• 37:40
  different
• 37:41
  ways
• 37:41
  depending
• 37:41
  on
• 37:41
  our
• 37:42
  lived
• 37:42
  experiences
• 37:43
  and
• 37:43
  things.
• 37:43
  And
• 37:43
  children
• 37:43
  are
• 37:44
  the
• 37:44
  same
• 37:44
  and
• 37:44
  we
• 37:44
  don't
• 37:46
  allow
• 37:46
  for
• 37:47
  that
• 37:47
  within
• 37:47
  our
• 37:47
  school
• 37:47
  system.
• 37:48
  We
• 37:48
  don't
• 37:48
  allow
• 37:49
  for,
• 37:49
  you
• 37:50
  know,
• 37:50
  there
• 37:50
  isn't
• 37:50
  a
• 37:50
  level
• 37:51
  of,
• 37:51
  of
• 37:51
  personal
• 37:52
  approach
• 37:52
  which,
• 37:52
  you
• 37:53
  know,
• 37:53
  if
• 37:53
  you've
• 37:53
  got
• 37:53
  a
• 37:53
  classroom
• 37:54
  full
• 37:54
  of
• 37:54
  30
• 37:54
  children,
• 37:54
  how
• 37:55
  can
• 37:55
  you
• 37:55
  deliver
• 37:55
  that?
• 37:56
  You.
• 37:56
  You
• 37:57
  can't.
• 37:57
  I'm
• 37:57
  not
• 37:57
  suggesting
• 37:58
  it's
• 37:58
  the
• 37:58
  teacher's
• 37:59
  fault,
• 37:59
  but
• 38:00
  that
• 38:00
  we're,
• 38:01
  you
• 38:01
  know,
• 38:01
  it's.
• 38:02
  That,
• 38:03
  yes,
• 38:04
  it's
• 38:04
  important
• 38:05
  to
• 38:05
  impart
• 38:06
  knowledge
• 38:07
  and
• 38:07
  for
• 38:07
  children
• 38:08
  to
• 38:08
  learn
• 38:08
  but
• 38:09
  it's
• 38:10
  more
• 38:10
  important,
• 38:11
  in
• 38:11
  my
• 38:11
  opinion,
• 38:12
  for
• 38:13
  them
• 38:13
  to
• 38:13
  be,
• 38:14
  you
• 38:14
  know,
• 38:14
  nurtured
• 38:15
  and
• 38:15
  supported
• 38:15
  and
• 38:16
  for
• 38:16
  their
• 38:16
  emotional
• 38:17
  development
• 38:18
  to
• 38:18
  be
• 38:20
  nurtured
• 38:20
  in
• 38:20
  the
• 38:20
  right
• 38:21
  way.
• 38:22
  I
• 38:22
  think
• 38:22
  that's
• 38:22
  exactly
• 38:23
  what
• 38:23
  we're
• 38:23
  saying.
• 38:24
  I
• 38:24
  think
• 38:24
  that's
• 38:24
  how
• 38:25
  we
• 38:25
  are
• 38:25
  clever
• 38:25
  enough
• 38:26
  to
• 38:26
  home
• 38:26
  educate.
• 38:27
  Because
• 38:27
  there
• 38:27
  is.
• 38:27
  And
• 38:28
  I'll
• 38:28
  put
• 38:28
  my,
• 38:29
  my
• 38:29
  I
• 38:29
  die
• 38:30
  on
• 38:30
  the
• 38:30
  hill.
• 38:30
  There
• 38:31
  is
• 38:31
  nobody
• 38:32
  on
• 38:32
  this
• 38:32
  planet
• 38:33
  that
• 38:33
  know
• 38:34
  each
• 38:34
  one
• 38:34
  of
• 38:35
  my
• 38:35
  children
• 38:35
  more
• 38:35
  than
• 38:36
  I
• 38:36
  do.
• 38:36
  Inside
• 38:37
  out,
• 38:37
  back
• 38:38
  to
• 38:38
  front.
• 38:38
  I
• 38:38
  can
• 38:38
  tell
• 38:38
  you
• 38:39
  every
• 38:39
  single
• 38:39
  emotion,
• 38:40
  every
• 38:40
  single
• 38:40
  feeling.
• 38:41
  I
• 38:41
  can
• 38:41
  tell
• 38:41
  you
• 38:41
  when
• 38:42
  they're
• 38:42
  getting
• 38:42
  ill,
• 38:42
  before
• 38:42
  they're
• 38:43
  ill.
• 38:43
  I
• 38:43
  know
• 38:43
  that
• 38:44
  because
• 38:44
  I
• 38:44
  can
• 38:44
  see
• 38:45
  it
• 38:45
  coming.
• 38:45
  I
• 38:45
  can
• 38:46
  tell
• 38:46
  you
• 38:46
  whether
• 38:46
  they're
• 38:46
  tired,
• 38:47
  hungry,
• 38:47
  whatever
• 38:47
  it
• 38:48
  is.
• 38:48
  There
• 38:48
  is
• 38:48
  nobody
• 38:49
  on
• 38:49
  this
• 38:49
  planet
• 38:50
  that
• 38:50
  knows
• 38:50
  each.
• 38:50
  I
• 38:51
  have
• 38:51
  four
• 38:51
  children
• 38:51
  and
• 38:52
  there
• 38:52
  is
• 38:52
  not
• 38:52
  one
• 38:53
  person
• 38:53
  that
• 38:53
  knows
• 38:54
  any
• 38:54
  of
• 38:54
  my
• 38:54
  four
• 38:55
  children
• 38:56
  better
• 38:56
  than
• 38:56
  I
• 38:56
  do.
• 38:57
  And
• 38:57
  that
• 38:57
  will
• 38:58
  never,
• 38:58
  ever
• 38:58
  happen.
• 38:59
  So
• 38:59
  that,
• 39:00
  that
• 39:00
  is
• 39:00
  what
• 39:00
  makes
• 39:01
  the
• 39:01
  parents
• 39:02
  clever
• 39:02
  enough
• 39:02
  to
• 39:03
  home
• 39:03
  educate.
• 39:03
  And
• 39:04
  that's
• 39:04
  the
• 39:04
  benefit
• 39:05
  that
• 39:05
  you
• 39:05
  have
• 39:05
  that
• 39:05
  the
• 39:06
  school
• 39:06
  doesn't
• 39:06
  have,
• 39:06
  is
• 39:07
  you
• 39:07
  know
• 39:07
  your
• 39:07
  kid
• 39:08
  inside
• 39:08
  out,
• 39:09
  back
• 39:09
  to
• 39:09
  front.
• 39:09
  They
• 39:10
  do
• 39:10
  not
• 39:10
  know
• 39:10
  that
• 39:10
  information.
• 39:11
  And
• 39:11
  that's
• 39:12
  why
• 39:13
  you
• 39:13
  are
• 39:13
  clever
• 39:13
  enough
• 39:14
  to
• 39:14
  home
• 39:14
  educate.
• 39:14
  There's
• 39:15
  no,
• 39:15
  there's
• 39:15
  no
• 39:15
  other.
• 39:16
  You
• 39:16
  don't
• 39:16
  need
• 39:16
  anything
• 39:16
  else.
• 39:17
  It's
• 39:17
  just
• 39:17
  that.
• 39:19
  That's
• 39:20
  exactly
• 39:20
  what
• 39:20
  I
• 39:20
  was
• 39:20
  going
• 39:20
  to
• 39:21
  say
• 39:21
  to
• 39:21
  wrap
• 39:21
  up
• 39:21
  the
• 39:21
  podcast.
• 39:22
  So,
• 39:22
  Patam.
• 39:23
  Well
• 39:23
  done,
• 39:23
  Charlotte.
• 39:26
  M.
• 39:27
  Sorry,
• 39:28
  that's
• 39:29
  it.
• 39:29
  Well,
• 39:29
  end
• 39:30
  of.
• 39:31
  Exactly.
• 39:32
  We
• 39:32
  are
• 39:32
  going
• 39:33
  to
• 39:33
  be
• 39:33
  doing
• 39:34
  a
• 39:34
  little
• 39:34
  series
• 39:35
  of
• 39:35
  looking
• 39:35
  at
• 39:36
  home
• 39:36
  ed
• 39:36
  myths.
• 39:37
  So
• 39:37
  if
• 39:37
  there
• 39:37
  is
• 39:38
  a
• 39:38
  myth
• 39:38
  that
• 39:39
  you
• 39:39
  get
• 39:39
  spouted
• 39:40
  at
• 39:40
  you
• 39:41
  a
• 39:41
  lot,
• 39:42
  do
• 39:42
  let
• 39:42
  us
• 39:43
  know
• 39:43
  wherever
• 39:43
  you're
• 39:43
  listening
• 39:44
  to
• 39:44
  this
• 39:44
  and
• 39:44
  we
• 39:45
  will
• 39:46
  do
• 39:46
  a
• 39:46
  controversial
• 39:47
  podcast
• 39:47
  where
• 39:48
  we
• 39:48
  bat
• 39:48
  it
• 39:48
  back.
• 39:49
  But
• 39:49
  there
• 39:50
  are
• 39:50
  so
• 39:50
  many
• 39:50
  myths
• 39:51
  around
• 39:51
  home
• 39:51
  education.
• 39:52
  I
• 39:52
  think
• 39:52
  it
• 39:52
  is
• 39:52
  in.
• 39:53
  I
• 39:53
  think
• 39:53
  it
• 39:53
  is
• 39:54
  just
• 39:54
  built
• 39:54
  into
• 39:55
  a
• 39:55
  system
• 39:55
  where
• 39:55
  you
• 39:55
  do
• 39:56
  something
• 39:56
  that
• 39:56
  other
• 39:56
  people
• 39:57
  aren't
• 39:57
  doing
• 39:58
  and
• 39:58
  they
• 39:58
  don't
• 39:58
  really
• 39:59
  know
• 39:59
  that
• 39:59
  much
• 39:59
  about.
• 39:59
  There's
• 40:00
  a
• 40:00
  lot
• 40:00
  of
• 40:00
  myths
• 40:00
  around
• 40:00
  it.
• 40:01
  I
• 40:01
  think
• 40:01
  Covid
• 40:01
  helped
• 40:01
  a
• 40:02
  lot
• 40:02
  because
• 40:02
  before
• 40:02
  COVID
• 40:03
  you
• 40:03
  would
• 40:03
  not
• 40:03
  believe
• 40:03
  some
• 40:04
  of
• 40:04
  the
• 40:04
  wild
• 40:04
  myths
• 40:05
  that
• 40:05
  people
• 40:05
  had
• 40:05
  about
• 40:06
  home
• 40:06
  education.
• 40:06
  But
• 40:07
  now
• 40:08
  everyone
• 40:08
  thinks
• 40:08
  it's
• 40:08
  basically
• 40:09
  Covid
• 40:09
  learning.
• 40:10
  Oh,
• 40:10
  you
• 40:10
  just
• 40:10
  sit
• 40:10
  there
• 40:10
  with
• 40:11
  Oak
• 40:11
  Academy,
• 40:12
  do
• 40:12
  you
• 40:12
  all
• 40:12
  day
• 40:13
  for
• 40:13
  like
• 40:13
  seven
• 40:13
  hours.
• 40:14
  We've
• 40:14
  got
• 40:15
  to
• 40:15
  do
• 40:15
  the
• 40:15
  socialization
• 40:16
  one.
• 40:16
  It's
• 40:16
  that
• 40:16
  one.
• 40:17
  I've
• 40:17
  got
• 40:18
  so
• 40:18
  many
• 40:18
  stupid
• 40:19
  comments
• 40:19
  that
• 40:19
  come
• 40:19
  out
• 40:20
  of
• 40:20
  that.
• 40:20
  I
• 40:20
  can't,
• 40:21
  I
• 40:21
  can't
• 40:21
  even
• 40:21
  cope
• 40:22
  with
• 40:22
  people
• 40:22
  with
• 40:22
  the
• 40:22
  socialization.
• 40:23
  That
• 40:24
  one
• 40:24
  makes
• 40:24
  sense.
• 40:24
  I'm
• 40:24
  looking
• 40:24
  forward
• 40:24
  to
• 40:25
  the
• 40:25
  socialization
• 40:25
  one
• 40:26
  because
• 40:26
  I,
• 40:27
  I
• 40:27
  have
• 40:27
  controversial
• 40:28
  opinions
• 40:28
  about
• 40:28
  socialization.
• 40:29
  It
• 40:30
  comes
• 40:30
  to
• 40:30
  home
• 40:30
  education,
• 40:30
  and
• 40:31
  it
• 40:31
  isn't
• 40:31
  going
• 40:31
  to
• 40:31
  be
• 40:31
  the
• 40:32
  opinion
• 40:32
  you
• 40:32
  think
• 40:32
  I'm
• 40:32
  going
• 40:33
  to
• 40:33
  have.
• 40:33
  So
• 40:33
  there
• 40:34
  we
• 40:34
  are.
• 40:34
  So
• 40:34
  that's
• 40:34
  something
• 40:34
  to
• 40:35
  look
• 40:35
  forward
• 40:35
  to.
• 40:35
