We must treat children as people, not as an academic football between disciplines.
@IndependentSage gets this right.

The following sentences are in seven different languages, all written in Chinese-character script (or a modification of it). Can you identify the languages?
Sentences are in thread.
(1/3)
Here again are those seven sentences:
1) 他的剑从船上掉到河里去
2) 於世𡗉番𧡊哭唭𢆥尼歲㐌外四𨑮
3) 入良沙寢矣見昆腳烏伊四是良羅
4) 佢而家喺邊喥呀
5) 夜久毛多都伊豆毛夜幣賀岐都麻碁微爾夜幣賀岐都久流曾能夜幣賀岐袁
6) 其劍自舟中墜於水
7) 今天愛晚特語兔吃二魚佛午飯
Six of those seven sentences are historically attested. One is not: I invented #7. I’m going to dive into an exploration of that seventh sentence in today’s thread.
Sentence #7 is an English-language sentence written sinographically — that is, using graphs that originate in the Chinese script. I didn’t do this for fun (even though it is fun), or as a proposal for a new way to write
7) \u4eca\u5929\u611b\u665a\u7279\u8a9e\u5154\u5403\u4e8c\u9b5a\u4f5b\u5348\u98ef \u2013 Modern English

Today I want you to each two fish for lunch.
That this sentence is a written form of English is undeniable, as the sentence is made up entirely of English words following the rules of English grammar. 23/
I did it as a thought experiment. Why? Because thinking about how the modern Chinese script might be adapted to write modern English can give us valuable insights into historical instances of script borrowing, like those that took place centuries ago in Japan, Korea, and Vietnam.
*Re: Teachers have passed the test the Government have failed*
My letter in response to @GavinWilliamson's request for parents to complain about online provision of learning during global pandemic. It might appeal to parents & #EduTwitter alike. THREAD⬇️
I would like to echo the recent recommendation of my MP, who I understand has education as one of their priorities.
They lead with religious and political faith, and I'd like you to lend from their methods of applying faith over fact, if you could.
You see, I have faith in schools communicating clearly, consistently and safely as the facts have demonstrated they can. Unlike the cabinet.

Schools have acknowledged the fear and confusion communities have suffered when this government has failed to deliver clear and consistent messages that lend to 'common sense'.
This, despite the fact their 'common sense' pleas for the contradicting that of their own dangerous behaviour.
