Private School Downgraded by Ofsted for Being Too Woke and Neglecting Actual Teaching

by Will Jones
7 March 2022 9:10 PM

A leading London private school has been downgraded by education watchdog Ofsted for placing more weight on teaching “social justice” than on learning “subject-specific knowledge and skills” while some pupils felt their views were “suppressed” in lessons. The Evening Standard has the story.

The American School in St John’s Wood, which charges £32,650 a year, was downgraded from “outstanding” in its previous inspection to “requires improvement”.

In a report from an inspection from December 2021, Ofsted noted that leaders of the school, which educates pupils from age four to 18, had high expectations and “gives strong importance to equality and inclusion”.

But it added: “Sometimes, however, teaching places much more weight on the school’s approach to social justice than on learning subject-specific knowledge and skills.”

The report said that the school provided opportunities for pupils with different characteristics to discuss issues affecting them.

“However, not everyone felt that they are able to express their views freely in class,” it added.

“A significant number felt that their voices are not encouraged, or in some cases, are suppressed.”

In November 2021, the Times reported that non-white pupils had been recruited to affinity groups for people of colour, which some parents felt was discriminatory towards their children.

Parents also expressed concern about the teaching of concepts such as “white fragility” to their children.

Former headteacher Robin Appleby left the school in January.

The report praised the school’s music curriculum, which it said was “broad and balanced” but added that “in other areas of the curriculum, the approach is not as balanced”.

“This is particularly where teaching places more emphasis on the school’s social justice programme than on the acquisition of specific subject content,” it added.

Ofsted said that in the school’s lower school curriculum for social studies, pupils “spend much time repeatedly considering identity (including analysing their own characteristics) rather than learning, for example, geographical knowledge”.

Makes a nice change to see the Blob doing something anti-woke and curbing some of the ideological excesses.

Worth reading in full.

There is nothing novel about SARS-CoV-2 and never was. We’ve heard this uttered many, many times by people ranging from your average Joe to tinfoil hat conspiracy theorists (allegedly). Seems like the proof has been in plain sight all along:

https://youtu.be/Jtc-_0tkeog?t=16228

4h 30m onwards. This is something *everyone* here should be watching if they haven’t already.

I’ll admit I was on the fence about this for a long time and believed the virus was an actual thing because the evidence was lacking disproving its existence, but I’m now fairly convinced sars-cov-2 does not exist as a unique pathogen.

So when an antibody test, or a T-cell test is positive for COVID 19, it is picking up common cold/flu exposure?
This is over my head.

Watch the whole thing from that point, fast-forward the translated parts (arrow keys), you’ll have a better understanding by the end. Basically they find what they want to find with PCR/etc because they determine what they’re looking for before doing it. It’s hard to determine the depth of this corruption. Sure, the PCR test (as invented by Kary Mullis) is an ingenious invention – but always remember what he said (and I paraphrase here): You can find anything you want with it.

Quotes from the obit of Nobel Prize winner Kary Mullis inventor of the PCR test….’As an undergraduate at the Georgia Inst. of Tech.he claimed to have invented an electronic device that could control a light switch with brainwaves.In 1973 he earned a PhD at the Uni. of Cal. where his interest in hallucinogens blossomed. One acid trip inspired a paper on time travel.. ” The Cosmological Significance of Time Reversal” He once collapsed after inhaling nitrous oxide, and woke up with frostbite on his face.In 1998 he published a book about his life..Dancing in the Mind Field, He also reported an encounter with a fluorescent standard extra-terrestrial raccoon at his cabin in the woods in northern California, He denied being on psychedelics at the time ‘ Good evening doctor,’ it said. I said something back, probably .. hello.Mullis was known as a weird figure in science and flamboyant philanderer and sufer dude who evangelised the use of LSD, believed in astrology, denied the evidence for both global warming and HIV as the cause of Aids, and formed a company that sold jewellery embedded with the DNA from celebrities such as Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monro. Quote..’ Science has not been successful by making up explanations that fit with the current social fabric’ One friend recalled seeing him in Aspen Colorado, skiing down the centre of an icy road through fast two way traffic he had a vision he would die by crashing his head against a redwood tree. Hence he was fearless wherever there were no redwoods, anticlimactically he died of pneumonia. aged 74. Maybe a little bit to’ outside the box’ for SAGE, mores the pity !

As I understood it, it’s picking up an agreed genetic sequence as a part of the whole genome of Sars Cov that was patented (therefore not from nature) years ago. Each ‘variant’ is simply looking at another part of the genome (sometimes overlapping with another part). So Sars Cov is like a house that has been built with many windows each of which can be looked through into the house, from outside. The common cold is one of those windows, I think. Flu has been used for the last ten years to try to get folk vaxxed but hasn’t worked in any great numbers so has been discarded! Someone correct me where I’m wrong, please.

I watched this video with Dr David Martin yesterday morning and it was incredible. That, along with the Joe Rogan Experience emergency podcast with Brett Weinstein and Dr Pierre Kory on Ivermectin should make anyone who tows the official line realise this has all been about money and governments are using it for their advantage for social change.

Seriously. There are pictures of them, and we have the genetic sequence of it. How on earth do you think we coded the spike protein for the vaccines. Some crazy conspiracy theory?

How do you think they spot the variants? By coding your the genetic sequence and comparing it to the originals.

Having a genetic sequence means nothing if the genetic sequence is nothing new. You misunderstand the fundamental point here. This is not saying that ‘corona doesn’t exist’, it’s saying (and proving, with pretty strong evidence) that SARS-Cov-2 does not exist as a unique identifiable virus. Understand the difference. Coronaviruses exist. SARS existed. The patents filed prior to November 2019, some of them years before any such Covid-19 pandemic was declared, show that the genetic sequences now known as SARS-CoV-2 are not unique or novel.

I’d wager the genetic sequence for the spike protein was already in the oven before the pandemic was declared and it seems the evidence is starting to prove that.

“that SARS-Cov-2 does not exist as a unique identifiable virus.”

Of course it exists as an indentifiable virus. It’s in every micobiology lab in the world.

The variants are new, and the code continues to change. That’s how RNA viruses roll. They are naturally chimeric due to the random effects of protein refolding. Nothing like this has been in the wild outside a lab before.

What they were doing in the lab before it got out is anybody’s guess – even if it is just a chimera that just happen to come together because somebody brought a load of bats into close contact with each other.

It’s not the uniqueness of the bits that matter. It’s the combination.

“Nothing like this has been in the wild outside a lab before.”

I’m not taking a position on the wider debate you’re involved in here, but this statement is misleading. There are four (iirc) coronaviruses like this one that have affected humans for centuries if not millennia. This is nothing particularly new, as evidenced by the pre-existing resistance to it.

What’s new is the panic/opportunist/exploitative response.

Sars Cov 2 cannot come from bats. It cannot even infect them. The spike protein has been designed to infect human cells and only human cells.

You cannot infect a bat with this coronavirus.

The Coronaviruses were sourced in bats starting from about twenty years ago, then grown in the lab and modified so that the viral receptor nucleosides can lock into human lung epithelial receptors.(ACE2)

This has been routinely done in virology labs for years, they have been weaponising harmless (to humans) animal viruses and patenting them.

Years ago I came across a paper that had taken a sheep lung cancer virus and modified it so that it could be airborne, i.e changed the outer viral capsule so that it could infect through air currents. The original sheep virus only infected other sheep when they rubbed their eyes together.
Then the virologist (classified as “inventor” in the patent) applied for a patent on this.

The mistake was allowing natural organisms that have been modified to be patented. There are huge sums of money to be made in doing this work and there has been an explosion of investment in the biotech world.
No-one now can ask the question any more that used to be asked of whether it is wise to modify the natural world around us in this way. Just because these organisms are tiny to us does not mean that disturbing their ecosystem will be without consequence.

I don’t want to take the time to chase down research links, but I think that all the three crossover organisms that have jumped from animal to human in the last twenty years were also coincidentally being researched in labs for gain of function research.

Also there was an odd Ebola outbreak in north africa a few years ago which turned out to be a strain from a laboratory. Also north africa is not ebola’s natural range, so it looks as if someone deliberately released it to see how lethal it would be.

I have my doubts about most of the novel human viral outbreaks these days, zika would be another one, but I have not done any research. too depressing.

There are over 170 patents recorded in the ‘open to public view’ US Patents office covering the spike protein of SARS-COV-2 lodged between 2015 and 2019 and held by a variety of organisations.
The full genetic sequence of SARS-Cov-2 was lodged finally after a large payment to the Patents Office by the CDC in 2007!
Its now exposed as the lie it always was. This is a manufactured computer produced genetic code. Designed as a vaccine vector originally for a HIV vaccine but after 2007 put to other more maligned purposes once DARPA got involved.

The medical journals only reference the sequences originating in the patents. If you want something specific looked at, come up with it and we’ll get started looking at it – time permitting.

“We took the actual genetic sequences, that were reportedly novel, and reviewed those against the patent records as of the spring of 2020. And what we found [as you’ll see in this report] that are over 120 patented pieces of evidence to suggest that the deceleration of a novel coronavirus was entirely a fallacy. There was no novel coronavirus.”

“There are countless, very subtle, modifications of coronavirus sequences that have been uploaded. But there was no single identified novel coronavirus at all. As a matter of a fact, we found records in that patent records, of sequences attributed to novelty, going back to patents that were sought as early as 1999. So not only was this not a novel anything, it’s actually not been novel for over two decades.”

The patents are disclosed in the discussion on Corona Ausschuss. Since you clearly haven’t bothered to watch it, you don’t know what to look for. Last I checked, those guys seem to know what they’re doing. I looked up a couple and they do exist. I’m going to go over them the next few days in more detail because it’s quite complicated material.

Your attitude does not help matters. I highly expect even when presented with the evidence in your hand on a silver spoon, you’d still refute it.

“because appeals to authority are serf thinking.”

You mean like the entirety of the British public have been doing the past year and a half, despite the evidence supporting such measures not only being thin on the ground, but evidence to the contrary is piling up by the bucket load? Ah wait, is that because ‘your guru’ is better than ‘my guru’ and therefore only your guru is valid?

And the fact that the lab leak theory was dismissed as ‘conspiracy theory’ in the same way that you’re dismissing this now, despite that the lab leak theory is now being seriously considered.

It was actually a long road from there to here. The whole idea that SARS-Cov-2 not being a unique & novel pathogen was already known, but the extent of this corruption not even I would’ve believed. I was convinced 100% this virus existed for the past year. Now I’m not so sure. I’m keeping an open mind on this – but the evidence is pretty damning. Seems your mind is closed shut and decided that the ‘science’ is settled for all time. Classic.

“When I read the Wuhan study in Feb 2020 I was mortified by the monkey kidney & foetal cell-lines which were used as a “culture” before rt-PCR amplification. Isolation was never satisfactory at any stage thereafter.
I honestly felt sick.

The genome sequence was computed from this.
I set about proving that the vaccine has been created from a computer generated genomic sequence & not one isolated from an infected person, either in Wuhan or anywhere else in the world since.

The Pfizer BioNTech vaccine was approved by UK MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency) & I initiated a polite exchange of emails with them as follows:”

Well, a Tory government (with “opposition” support) reacting to a situation with extreme human rights abuses. And as I understand, the situation was more people than usual (but not more than the age and population adjusted figures for 2008) dying from a nasty bug that was going round in Winter and Spring last year, and particularly those that I referred to. Hard to be sure what is behind more recent trends though with so many extreme NPI’s etc. interventions

It may not be that bad. In South Australia just a week ago when we were all ‘strongly urged’ by the government and the propaganda organs to wear masks on public transport and when ‘out in public’ (in response to a scare about zero, yes zero, ‘cases’!), very few did. On the bus, and on the street, I was counting ‘human, human, human, zombie, human, human, human, zombie, human, human ……..’. Unmasked humans were winning in a landslide. Without the threat of a hefty fine, people were voting with their faces. Unless you Brits are suffering from Covid craziness far more than us Aussies, then you might be surprised at how soon people recover their humanity. Here’s hoping.

Elsewhere I read about the mask mandate being dropped in, IIRC, one of the Baltic states (Estonia maybe) and within a couple of weeks, hardly anone was wearing them.

Anecdotally here, most of the people in my local Tesco are wearing masks. But a few do not (and do not have an exemption card), and I have never seen a single person as much as give them even as much as an annoyed glance. I strongly suspect just about everyone is wearing them to avoid any hassle, not because they believe in them,

So have any of these sportsmen spoken out about the restrictions and vaccine coercion etc.? Cos if they haven’t, one may tend to suspect that they are thinking more of their image/advertising deals when they speak out on other issues rather than being particularly brave or principled.

  • “A certain derangement has taken hold of our citizens. Are they suffering from long lockdown?” – In his column for the Sunday Times, Rod Liddle takes aim at the “saucepan-banging, knee-bending, mask-wearing” people of the left, who, he says, are “beginning to grate”

Then why did you fall for their bullshit back in March 2020, when it might have been possible to resist it, you useless old panicking collaborator?

“Our Government has got to stick to its guns.

In my opinion it was a little late imposing restrictions on movement in the first place.
But at least in the end it did the decent thing — putting the health of the most vulnerable of our country above the need to make money.”

Rod Liddle, useless panicking collaborator, spouting cowardly, infantile shite on 29th April 2020.

I doubt he’s “come back to sanity”, although I haven’t read this full piece because it’s pay-walled and I no more want to give the Times my money than the BBC. More likely he’s just temporarily on the right side of the issue.

After his shameful display in 2020 I would certainly not trust him not to go straight back into bedwetting mode as soon as there’s the slightest bit of pressure. Like so many supposedly robust commentators, he failed when stress tested.

I’ve seen blindness and prejudice, but this is one-eyed, loopy derangement as a right wing government imposes modern fascism.

Comical as it is to read someone simultaneously talking about the current soft left Tories as a “right wing” government and accusing someone else of “one-eyed, loopy derangement”, you appear to have mis-read the comment you were replying to. The words you quoted were (presumably) Liddle’s, quoted by the site editors in the piece atl.

As for “political fanatics” and “political pram pushers”, you seem to be projecting. Nobody who tries to pretend this is a “right wing” project, when it has had the full support of almost every major leftist institution in the world and the only criticism of the UK regime’s panic policies by either the Labour “opposition” or the Corbynite Labour left has been that they didn’t panic hard enough or fast enough, can claim to be honest on this.

We’ve been around this circle enough times that your refusal to accept the enthusiastic involvement of the political left is undeniably dishonesty or delusion on your part.

Snap out of it.

Another highly dubious ‘poll’. Those that are could try hypnotherapy to cure them of their irrational, BBC-induced fear of benign cold and flu coronaviruses. But sadly, if they’ve already taken the jab(s), these microbes could pose a very real threat to them.

I agree. It might be personally sad for their relatives, but surely to goodness they cannot have expected them to live forever?

We are so disconnected from the natural cycle of life and death that we express surprise and even disquiet / outrage when someone in their 90’s dies; rather than being glad they lived so long.

Personally, if I get to 80 in a reasonable shape, I’ll be grateful, and will see every day as a bonus.

Well, exactly. I was thinking about my grandparents the other day. All were young, just married with babies (my parents) when WW2 broke out. Then it all changed for them. I can’t imagine what it must have been like, with the threat of actual death over the heads of the population, day after day, as they tried to go about their everyday life. Both Grandfathers were on active duty and my Grandmothers did “their bit” for the war effort. They were bombed out of their homes and evacuated. The trauma of this was never talked about. Luckily they all survived but lived relatively short lives, the long term effects of the war, taking its toil, both mentally and physically eventually. They all died in the 1970s and early 80s as did a large number ” elderlys,” who were probably only in their early 70s. No one ever discussed this. It was just accepted. Compared to now. Where we have this totally fabricated altruism that “all lives must be saved, whatever the cost” (despite evidence to the very contrary!) and so the world has to be put into an enforced coma to do so, to “protect” us from a virus from which 99% of the population have a 99% chance of recovery? I can’t imagine what my grandparents and all the others would think if they came back, who literally fought to survive, so that we, their grandchildren, and their great grandchildren could live in a free world.

Well, tell that to the fully stabbed (several months ago) household who all currently have symptomatic covid (the standard cold symptoms and two days in bed). In their case the vaccine had no effect. Surely we should inflict equal lockdown on them if it just saves one life (sarc)?

I doubt there’s many unvaccinated who would answer to T&T? Being sceptical about one kinda goes hand in hand with the other. That’s what I figured anyway. Probably won’t be any “asymptomatic” souls isolating from now on, only the dumb vaccinated will be testing themselves.

NEWS ROUND-UP ITEM: Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison is set to announce a financial support package for businesses affected by the Sydney lockdown, the Daily Mail reports, amidst warnings it could last for weeks.

New South Wales premier, the ‘Liberal’ Gladys Berejikian, the (former) Golden Girl for the ‘lockdown moderates’ because of her geographically targeted rather than blanket lockdowns, is now on the outer with them as she morphs into Dismal Dan Andrews, the Victorian ‘Labor’ premier, with her three week, widespread lockdown and her venting about ‘bad behaviour’ by the lockdown-flouting public. Her counter-measure is to set the Covid Cops onto shoppers to check that their shopping bags are full of only ‘essentials’ rather than ‘luxuries’.

Federal Prime Minister or state Premier, Liberal or Labor, our political bigwigs are all Zero Covid crazies and authoritarian nutters. A waste of space, the lot of them

I have watchd a fair part of that Reiner Fullmuch/Dr martin video and it has clarified a number of points for me. So Sars Cov 2 is a manufactured thing, their evidence seems absolutely damning. I knew a bit about sequencing before, but this stuff goes way beyond what I ever learned at college years ago. The so-called vaccines were then never geared to a real virus in the first place. The human body is being well and truly buggared and it seems there’s nothing we can do to stop them…..other than refusing it. Simple to say and with our rights being removed from us daily, increasingly difficult to do. It is an evil place we are all in. Will God force us all to take it, looks so far like he’s left us to the wolves.

Or indeed when going to the loo in a pub or restaurant and the obligatory masking up to walk a few paces? It’s all nonsense designed to maintain a certain level of fear and anxiety and to instil this way of being, bit by bit, into the common psyche so that it becomes ‘normal’ behaviour.

I was in a shop the other day. Lots of freezer units about, one other shopper. Towards the back of the shop was a desk. Every time the young girl assistant sat down behind the desk, she removed her mask. Every time she stood up, she put it back on. I was fascinated. By what .logic did she do this? She was in the same space throughout, but standing she needed a mask, while sitting, she didn’t?

All madness. And unthinking madness as well.

ARR and NNV only make sense if you have an absolute risk in mind and absolute risk varies with prevalence. These figures were presumably based on the absolute risk for the community taking part in the trial which may be completely different in another context. (That’s why they tend to quote RRR which does not vary with prevalence).

That’s exactly the kind of technically correct but fundamentally dishonest response I’d have expected from you. Builds support for my initial assessment.

The important point here is that the virus risks are minuscule (for all but a minuscule minority of the population) and therefore so are the absolute risk reductions, whereas the relative risk reductions can be as big as you like and still be hugely misleading – amounting to propaganda, or misrepresentation in advertising.

If this were a targeted vaccination campaign aimed at a single percent or so of the population, then your point might have relevance. but for a mass vaccination campaign it amounts to deception.

Surely there is more than one important point depending on your point of view?

The personal risk PoV. Put yourself in the position of someone deciding whether to get vaccinated. Your absolute risk depends very much on your personal situation. If you are an 80 year old in a care home at a time when there is a local outbreak then an ARR of 1% would be extremely deceptive.

The mass vaccination PoV. You are still not aiming at the absolute risk level that was apparent during the trials. This is a new unpredictable virus characterised by relatively short but intense outbreaks. You are presumably vaccinating to avoid your best guess at the highest risk in the future.

I can see the ARR would be useful if it was a disease with a few years’ track record so we had some idea of what absolute risk level was relevant. But that is not the case.

This dishonesty accusation is weird. Are so sure you are right that you cannot conceive that anyone with a different point of view is being honest?

“Surely there is more than one important point depending on your point of view?“

This was addressed in my previous reply. The argument is not that only the absolute risk reduction should be given, but that it should be given sufficient prominence.

We are not dealing with a targeted vaccination program, but with a wholly unjustified and unjustifiable mass vaccination program (especially as this is not a “sterilising” vaccine). The benefits of the vaccines are being intentionally exaggerated by avoiding drawing attention to the very small absolute risk reductions involved in the testing.

(Worth also observing that the relative risk reductions claimed look highly dubious in the light of real world experience – bearing in mind they are talking about the risks of catching the disease, not of dying. Big pharma rigging its results for profit?That would never happen….)

“This dishonesty accusation is weird. Are so sure you are right that you cannot conceive that anyone with a different point of view is being honest?”

This is inevitably a matter of judgement. I do not assume that most people I disagree with are dishonest, in fact my default assumption is the contrary. If people persist in maintaining positions that have been refuted beyond any reasonable doubt then I suspect them of dishonesty and/or ulterior motivation. It’s also about the kind and modes of disagreements, such as in this case.

An apologist. And fundamentally wrong.

You confuse risk with comparative risk between groups. Neither ratio varies with prevalence. In both cases (ARR & RRR) the ratios remain constant (you forgot the ‘reduction‘ bit). This is about comparative risk reduction in both cases i.e the relative effect of a treatment.

What is true is that overall risk varies with prevalence in both cases.)

Try the Beeb.

I am sorry but that is just wrong. Look here for example

“The absolute risk reduction is the arithmetic difference between the event rates in the two groups. This varies depending on the underlying event rate, becoming smaller when the event rate is low, and larger when the event rate is high.”

My emphasis.

I just realised the source of confusion. I think perhaps you think that ARR stands for Absolute Risk Ratio or something like that. It isn’t a ratio at all. ARR stands for Absolute Risk Reduction which is simply the difference between two numbers not a ratio.

The shrieking outrage directed at Richard Madeley for exposing Stalin’s Nanny as a devoted communist shouldn’t surprise anyone. If the state, and by extension, the media, were run by neo-nazis, you would expect them to to be outraged and defensive of a neo-nazi being exposed on prime-time TV.

Just returning from a short trip north of the border. Enjoyable enough with no face nappy but a lanyard as the Scots are more brainwashed and paranoid than the Auld Enemy. Sitting at the airport for flight back to marginally more sane England. Couldn’t help overhearing a conversation between some trolley dollies waiting for their plane. ‘I had some woman not wearing a mask. I asked her if she had a letter and she produced a handwritten one on letterheading from some shady private Doctor‘. As this came from a young person who can’t assemble a sentence that doesn’t contain ‘like’ and ‘you know’, I find the concept of her second guessing a practising MD somewhat ridiculous.
