Certainly my longest ever blog & one that I've been nervous to publish but here goes: my response to @The_GA's response to the Review of Curriculum & Assessment.
Looking forward to seeing what other geographers think & keeping the conversation going!

8. This is a superb example of a StoryMap. One for those teaching A2 Ethnic Diversity, or for those who just want to learn about segregation in Belfast.

🌍 Earth’s natural carbon sinks are vital for mitigating #ClimateChange.
🌱Did you know soil holds more carbon than you think? Understanding carbon storage in ecosystems is essential for advancing climate action and conservation.

Extended question @KVinceyxx ,
Is the av. reading age the same across all exam boards? If not, why not? Is this accurately monitored and/or assessed?

These before and after Overviews of Valencia, Spain show the extent of flood damage throughout the region, where more than 200 people have died in one of the worst natural disasters in the nation’s history. Torrential downpours earlier this week caused flash flooding that turned streets into rivers, swept away vehicles and infrastructure, and coated neighborhoods with a thick layer of mud. Some areas received a year’s worth of rain in just a few hours.

Massive respect to teacher colleagues who do this. All in the interests of helping us claim some much needed time back. Time we don’t have!
