Why Small Business Saturday really matters in 2020
Without a doubt, the coronavirus is taking a toll on Alabama's small businesses.
Governor Ivey has gradually eased many of the restrictions put in place to keep customers and employees safe, but small business owners say it may be months or even years before the local economy fully recovers from the pandemic.
That's why it's important this holiday season to make a point of shopping small.
Small Business Saturday is the Saturday after Thanksgiving, and that's a great reason to bypass the chain stores and support locally-owned shops and restaurants, but small businesses need our support every day.
Small business is the backbone of our economy, making up 99.4% of all employers in the state. And while it makes headlines whenever a big corporation adds a few hundred jobs here or there, small businesses are responsible for a net increase of 23,841 jobs statewide in 2019, according to the latest figures from the U.S. Small Business Administration.
Small businesses were doing well at the beginning of the year. Since spring, however, many people have lost their jobs or had their hours reduced, while employers have had to learn new safety procedures and invest in additional equipment from hand sanitizer stations and face masks to plastic shields at the checkout. Some small businesses intended to close temporarily and wound up closing for good.
When my association, the National Federation of Independent Business, surveyed its members nationwide last month, most thought the local economy would rebound to pre-COVID levels in 2021, but nearly one-third didn't think things would get back to normal until 2022 or later. And when we asked how long they thought they could stay in business under current conditions, 19% said seven months to a year, while 15% said three to six months and 3% thought only a month or two.
We can't afford to lose our small businesses.
NFIB is asking Congress to approve additional financial assistance to help local businesses avoid layoffs and keep the lights on until the pandemic is past, but there are simple steps everyone can take to help small businesses get through this:
We can shop local and shop small – not just on Small Business Saturday and the holiday season but year-round. National brands make a big deal out of their holiday sales, but local shops and restaurants offer deals – and exceptional personal and friendly service – that you won't find at the chains.
If you can't shop in person or want to avoid crowds, shop small businesses online or order by phone and take advantage of local delivery or curbside pickup. Or buy gift cards and gift certificates you can redeem once things get back to normal.
Remember that all kinds of eateries – from pizza places to fancy sit-down restaurants – offer take-out and, increasingly, delivery. If you want to sit down with your family and friends at your favorite restaurant after the pandemic is over, you must support them now – and don't forget to tip your server or delivery driver.
This is a trying time for Alabama's small businesses, but they're working every day to deliver the goods and services to their customers, provide jobs for employees and support their local community. Small businesses are implementing the safety protocols issued by federal and state officials and they are showing a real determination to get through this. Please join me and shop local and show your support for locally-owned businesses.

USDA, Alabama sign historic agreement to improve forests on public, private lands
U.S. Department of Agriculture Under Secretary James Hubbard and Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey signed a shared stewardship agreement Jan. 12 to ensure the long-term sustainability of public and private lands in the state.
The agreement signed in an online ceremony is among USDA's Forest Service and Natural Resources Conservation Service, the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, and the Alabama Forestry Commission.
Shared Stewardship agreements establish a framework for federal and state agencies to collaborate better, focus on accomplishing mutual goals, further common interests and effectively respond to the increasing ecological challenges and natural resource concerns.
"Shared stewardship provides an incredible opportunity to work with the state of Alabama to set stewardship priorities together," Hubbard said. "We will combine our mutual skills and assets to achieve cross-boundary outcomes desired by all."
This agreement centers on USDA's commitment to work with states and other partners to use the best available science to identify high-priority forests that need treatment.
"From our rolling mountains to our sparkling coast, the world can understand why they call it 'Alabama the Beautiful,'" Ivey said. "I am pleased that we can build on the conservation efforts already happening through these strong federal and state partnerships. I look forward to our state continually working for the good of the people as well as our natural resources and to preserve our beautiful state for generations to come."
Alabama becomes the seventh state in the South and 23rd in the nation to sign such an agreement to strengthen partnerships to increase the scope and scale of critical forest treatments that support communities and improve forest conditions.
"We look forward to continuing to work together with our partner agencies under this shared stewardship agreement," said ADCNR Commissioner Chris Blankenship. "This agreement memorializes a lot of the good work we have already been doing together to manage the resources and enhance our beautiful state, and it adds new areas where we can grow our partnerships."

An open letter to President Trump from a former supporter
Dear President Trump,
I voted for and supported you, as did 74 million Americans throughout the land, and now we are all absolutely and completely betrayed. The Democrats have the presidency and Congress because of you. I am a Christian and wholeheartedly believe in forgiveness – but my forgiveness of you will be difficult. Here's why.
For about three years your accomplishments were incredible – more than any president in my lifetime. You brought Kim Jong-un to the table and accomplished more in one year with North Korea than Barack Obama or Bill Clinton did in 16. Clinton's sunshine policies and Obama's Wilsonian overtures did nothing to advance anything with that Asian nation. But you had Kim talking, at least for a while.
You managed to author new trade deals with Canada, Mexico, China and the European Union. You brought NATO to heal by demanding other member nations pay their fair shares. The border with Mexico was strengthened and we were on a concrete plan to better regulate and control illegal immigration.
The economy was perhaps your greatest accomplishment. Usually, the president has little power to deeply affect economic cycles but you lowered taxes and eliminated draconian regulations, essentially removing the tourniquet off of the economy's blood flow. It absolutely erupted. In fact, I would argue that the economy – running like a greased locomotive going downhill by early 2019 – was better able to shoulder the initial economic shut down due to COVID. Had Hillary been in the White House, I have no doubt that her weak economy would have tanked with a COVID shuttering.
But once COVID hit, you implemented that shutdown and you seemed – at least initially – on top of the crisis. Always remember that politics is perception. And, fair or not, the media helps shape perception. Once the summer of 2020 came, you stopped acting like an active leader. You never directly addressed the people, as Reagan or the Bushes would have done. You never inspired confidence in our ability to defeat the virus. Instead, you endlessly moaned about the media and tried to shape perception via Twitter, which was largely unsuccessful.
I have no doubt that the media single-handedly destroyed your presidency with all the misinformation it monolithically propagated. From Charlottesville, VA, to COVID, you never could use the media for your own purposes. Instead, you antagonized it by fighting with Jim Accosta, Chris Cuomo, and other talking heads with whom you had no business arguing, like a child on a recess playground.
George W. Bush understood that you will never gain the full support of the media and so when it was critical, he ignored it. He placed the media beneath himself and his office, which is absolutely proper.
Your ego would not allow you to be gentlemanly, empathetic or kind. I think this is one reason why the media hated you so much. And instead of leading the people through the COVID crisis, you were viewed by most Americans as petty. If you would have just been nice, pleasant and active for the media, you'd be president today.
Also significant, you never could give others credit when things went well or take the blame when they did not. Reagan was always the first to admit when he was wrong and when he was right, he credited others instead of himself. George H. W. Bush and his son did the same. Obama and Clinton were mixed with this – I saw them give and take credit. But you? You always took credit for everything, without exception. And what's worse, when things went haywire, you blamed everyone else. What you did to Jeff Sessions was completely wrong. And you ended up doing the same thing to James Mattis, Rex Tillerson, William Barr and many others. During your four years you had four chiefs of staff, five Deputy Chiefs of Staff, four national security advisers and three secretaries of defense. The rate of turnover in your administration was higher than any other president.
Lastly, you manufactured what now seem to have been completely untrue stories about election fraud. You did this in complete dismissal of the truth and most damning, you willfully lied about it for over eight weeks while you should have been focused like a laser on Georgia.
When Republicans tried to legally and constitutionally stand against the electoral votes in certain swing states on January 6 (a largely symbolic gesture), you encouraged your supporters to march on the capitol, which they did. And when they overran the capitol police, ultimately causing the deaths of six Americans and the vandalism of our capitol building, you sat and watched, like Nero playing his fiddle, for hours and hours.
You never made it clear that this was illegal, violent, murderous and destructive. You, it seems to me, tacitly approved while the capitol was ransacked. This is pathetic. You sir do not deserve to be our president. I do not support impeachment or removal because it is essentially a fait accompli.
However, your dithering on 6 January absolutely and concretely confirms that your time in Washington is over, forever. I will never vote for you again because you placed yourself above your office and the Constitution.
Your actions have probably destroyed the Republican Party in its present form. And the damage that Biden-Harris will inflict on the nation will further illustrate the depths of your failure. Perhaps worst of all, the media's false claims about gun-toting, redneck, racist conservatives that have been made for years have now been given a real example, the damaging results of which will not be known for a long time.
Goodbye, Mr. Trump. Go into that good night silently, please. Someday I will forgive you, but I don't know when.

Goldberg Law Group would like to thank everyone who participated in Thursday night's Holiday Happy Hour for making it our most festive ever! We asked those interested in participating to bring presents for our White Elephant Grab Bag, and boy, did everyone comply. Everyone had a blast stealing gifts from each other, and a new tradition was started.
For those of you who couldn't make it, we hope you have a great holiday season, and we hope to see you soon!


The Alberta Railway Museum (ARM) located in the north end of Edmonton, Alberta houses a collection of railway equipment and buildings. It has locomotives from both the Canadian National Railways (CNR) and Northern Alberta Railways (NAR).
The Alberta Railway Museum opened in 1976 in a historic spot, on the former Canadian Northern Railway Coronado Subdivision. With the exception of summer staff, volunteers keep the Museum operating. Funding comes from memberships, museum admissions, grants and casinos.
The collection is in the process of being restored, with some cars already finished and others yet to be started. Some cars will be restored to nearly original condition while others will be restored to "last used".
These cars are the beginning of the Museum's planned consist of a CNR passenger train.
The following cars are a typical consist of a prairie mixed freight. Other cars may be added as they become available.
These eight cars are part of the Museum's planned consist representing a complete NAR passenger train, the only one in existence.
This lineup represents a typical Northern Alberta Railways work train and is the only surviving complete set.
This collection, including the "Big Hook" (63017) and its more modern cousin 50387, consists of an auxiliary or wreck train.
Other significant locomotives and cars.

Why did Ford close Mercury?
In 2010, Ford announced it would be discontinuing its Mercury brand. This decision was made in the midst of a major economic recession, and many wondered why Ford would choose to axe one of its brands at such a difficult time.
Ford's decision to close Mercury
First and foremost, the Mercury brand was simply not selling well. In 2009, Mercury sales were down by almost 40% from their peak in the early 2000s. Additionally, the brand was struggling to find its identity; many felt that it was neither luxury nor economy, and lacked a clear target market.
Furthermore, Ford was facing increasing pressure from shareholders to cut costs and improve its bottom line. And finally, with the success of Ford's "One Ford" plan - which aimed to streamline and simplify the company's operations - it made sense to consolidate the number of brands down to two (Ford and Lincoln).
So while the decision to discontinue Mercury was certainly a difficult one, it was ultimately the right move for Ford.
When it comes to reliability, Ford Mercurys are about average. In general, these vehicles have fewer problems than other makes and models; however, they are not immune to issues.
The most common problems with Ford Mercurys include transmission failure, engine failure, and electrical issues. These problems can be expensive to fix, and often lead to total vehicle breakdown.
While Ford Mercurys are not the most reliable cars on the market, they are still a good choice for many drivers. Those who are considering purchasing a used Mercury should be aware of these common issues, and budget for potential repairs down the road.
Are Ford and Mercury the same?
No, Ford and Mercury are not the same. Mercury was founded in 1939 as a division of the Ford Motor Company. The brand was created to offer a mid-priced vehicle option between Ford's economy cars and luxury Lincoln models.
Mercury was discontinued in 2010, and all remaining models were rebranded as Fords. So while Mercury is no longer its own separate brand, the vehicles that were once part of the Mercury lineup are still being produced by Ford.
Ford's decision to close Mercury was a difficult but necessary one. The brand was struggling to sell vehicles, and was facing increased pressure from shareholders to cut costs. Additionally, with the success of Ford's "One Ford" plan, it made sense to consolidate the number of brands down to two. While Mercury cars are not the most reliable on the market, they are still a good choice for many drivers. Those who are considering purchasing a used Mercury should be aware of common issues, and budget for potential repairs down the road.

Loose balloons wreak havoc on environment
By Lacy Shirey
Virginian-Pilot Correspondent |

The practice of releasing balloons is still considered an acceptable practice by many, but, as Sir Isaac Newton said, what goes up must come down, and the impact on the environment and wildlife can be detrimental.
Balloon releases are often done as a tribute to a loved one who has died or sometimes they're part of a festive event or celebration, but no matter the reason, they all result in litter.
This litter often ends up in our coastal areas and accumulates on shorelines. Even litter that originates far inland can make its way to the coastal region since stormwater lines and all waterways eventually lead to the coast.
A study conducted by Clean Virginia Waterways of Longwood University collected litter data from five remote beaches in Virginia from 2013 to 2017. The researchers found a total of 11,441 balloons or balloon fragments or pieces, including ribbons. Since the research areas were uninhabited and not open to the public, these findings illuminate how far litter can travel and the significant impact it has on our environment if left unchecked.

Any litter in our waterways and on our land has the potential to cause harm to wildlife; however, balloons are particularly dangerous because, in the water, they can resemble jellyfish or squid, which are food sources for marine wildlife such as sea turtles. Once ingested, balloons can cause fatal blockages, and the balloon ribbon can cause entanglement.
On land, balloons are a known problem for birds, wild horses, livestock and other species of terrestrial wildlife. In addition to ingesting balloons or balloon pieces and getting entangled in the ribbon, birds have been observed building their nests with balloon strings and balloon debris and other pieces of trash.
Virginia's current law allows up to 49 balloons per hour to be intentionally released. But even one balloon released has the potential to harm wildlife. Strong efforts were made to change the law but ultimately were not successful in this year's legislative session.

A bill introduced by Del. Nancy Guy (D-Virginia Beach) to ban all intentional balloon releases died in committee. Another bill by Sen. Jen Kiggans (R-Virginia Beach), which would have reduced the number of balloons that could be intentionally released from 49 to one per hour, was continued to 2021.
We expect a strong push again in next year's legislative session to change the law, with many organizations right here in Hampton Roads providing support. You can provide your support by contacting your local and state legislators and encouraging them to support a balloon ban.
In the meantime, choose responsible alternatives to honor a loved one or celebrate an event without doing a balloon release. Some ideas include blowing bubbles, planting a native tree or making a charitable gift in honor of your loved one.
Alternative resources and ideas can be found at joyfulsendoff.org, a campaign created by the Virginia Coastal Zone Management Program and Clean Virginia Waterways of Longwood University to reduce helium balloon releases and balloon litter.

In my last post, I wrote my thoughts on the information by the World Bank that in 50 years we are going to drown in waste. I ended the blog post by saying that business need to change their models from linear to circular ones. Linear = make-take-dispose, circular=make-take-reuse, remember?
Let's take the example of supermarkets. why would they turn sustainable?
Now, let's not wait for the first two options to happen,'cause that might take ages. We, as consumers, have to start act on our own. Only when the consumers will demand more sustainable solutions, the businesses will adopt it. Because customer and his/her wishes are everything to them. You might not realize it, but you, as a consumer, have an extraordinary power. Leave the classic argument "I myself won't change a thing, so what would I do it?" at home and change your environmentally unfriendly, plastic and wasteful habits. Try to reduce the amount of packaging, buy things in bulk, refill olive oil or hygienic products, stop using plastic bags for fruits and vegetables. You will see how difficult it might be if you want to have a sustainable lifestyle! But that's actually good, because like that you will realize the lack of sustainable solutions for customers. And you will start demanding them. And once such solutions appear (let's say that Tesco will start selling their products without packaging), everybody with the sustainable mind will go there instead of Lidl, Albert or Billa. And in reaction to that, Lidl, Albert and Billa will have to adapt. The race will be on!
The same goes on with other things-if you already realized that buying a brand new fancy but unrecyclable coffee cup every morning is a bit wasteful, you have probably started going to that one coffeeshop where they offer coffee into your own cup. Eventually, more and more will people go there. So those coffee shops that still insist on the single-use take-away cups will start losing customers. You don't need to be an economist for that. So in order to stay in the business, they will start offering the possibility of bringing your own cup, too. And in the end, nearly every coffee shop will do so.
Or am I too foolish?
I don't think so – look at the news. DM, the biggest drugstore chain in Germany and Central Europe will start refill stations for liquids. Recently I went to the Edeka store in Wiesbaden, Germany and I saw the indoor garden for herbs in the fresh produce section. Awesome! Who wouldn't want to buy basil or mint freshly picked, possibly into your own bag or sachet, instead of something that has traveled half the world and is wrapped in plastic? Some supermarkets (not in Czech Republic tho – sadly) offer to shop the delicatessen products into your container.
Therefore I am hopeful. Hopeful that we won't drown in waste.
That's it for today's sustainability motivation.

curled together as they slept.
the flushed cheek of love forlorn.
"what makes me love you so?"
"I am to meet my god"
"the sunset's perfect from the ridge"
below that holy hill all bathed with light of paradise.
A soundless blowing in a cooling breeze.
our gift from god, a taste of heaven.
i can feel you in my arms.
free to fly, and keep my love.
but loving butter is not a sin!
if you find first the shamrock four.
to feed the innocence of my dream.
every fiber of my being is saying "don't go"
i'll spear a golden pompano!
and hanging orchids plethora, and oh!
the purple frangipani and sirius (night-blooming)!
and felt bereft as one who's beloved is gone.
Where is my lovely moon?
And she was radiating a light i've never seen before.
sinister crescent of brilliant silver bright.
who could have taken a bite out of her?
and heal the lack of light.
that also grew the myriad stars and us.
Content to return to the greater spirits of our valley.
And with the dancing grass commune.
Then the captain strong and tall shouted "hold fast"!
And life becomes weary with the dying of the light.
what can distract me from these lovesick thoughts?
it's like my thirsting for you.
tasting our loves' growing ease.
Or make the crying sound.
Can cure this strange resentment.
great books i love an awful lot.
but most of all i just love you.
you're the only one i wish to woo.
if only you don't tell me not.
my heart's desire i'll find in thee.
And in my thoughts and heart.
How many days to de-tox from a bird?

Q: What makes simple groups so special? The classification of finite simple groups was one of the most important problem in group theory. But what makes simple groups so interesting and special?

A: Simple groups are like prime numbers........
One must not let the account of the matter end with a full stop after the last word above.  If one could say that all finite groups are products of finite simple groups, then the analogy would be simpler.  But one can say that simple groups are as far as you can take the process of taking quotient groups without going to the very smallest quotient group: the group with only one element.
The complication is that just taking Cartesian products of simple groups doesn't give all finite groups, and in fact, I think the understanding the ways in which other finite groups are built out of finite simple groups is quite a substantial problem in itself.
However.  Say you have a composite number like $299.$  You can form quotients:
$$
299/13 = 23.
$$
$$
299/23 = 13.
$$
But from the prime number $23,$ you can't form any quotients except $23$ and $1.$
Similarly there are no quotient groups of a simple group except itself and the group with only one element.

How The Two Songs From The Breaking Bad Finale Explain Everything
By Katey Rich published 30 September 13
Breaking Bad has always had a soft spot for on-the-nose musical choices, from the "Crystal Blue Persuasion" meth-cooking montage to the day in the life of the prostitute Wendy set to The Association's "Windy." So while it might have felt a little crushingly obvious when the guitars started up and the line "I guess I got what I deserved" played over Walt's final moments on Breaking Bad, really, could it have ended any different?
You can look at the lyrics from the first verse of the song, the only one we hear in the episode, to see why Vince Gilligan thought it was a perfect pick for playing over the final shot of Walt, dying on the floor of the high-tech chemistry lab built based on his own designs:
Guess I got what I deservedKept you waiting there too long, my loveAll that time without a wordDidn't know you'd think that I'd forget or I'd regretThe special love I had for you, my baby blue
Walt may have found a way to get his money to his family, gotten some closure with Skyler and a final visit with Holly, and even rescued Jesse, but the true love he was coming back for--whether he knew it or not-- was that baby blue, his signature color and the basis of his empire, the only thing by his side when he died. Even in an episode that gave Walt an unexpectedly happy ending, the song choice is one final reminder of what had truly driven Walt this entire time, and the reason he was stuck dying in this Nazi-owned meth lab to begin with.
The one other major song of the episode gives it the title, "Felina", which is an anagram for "finale" but also the name of the girl at the center of Marty Robbins' "El Paso," a lengthy ballad about a cowboy who loves a girl named Felina and dies as a result. Plenty of people made the connection before the episode aired and some impressive dissections of the potential meanings went online. You hear the song in the very beginning, when Walt steals the Volvo and leaves New Hampshire. You can also hear it again below:
The song, like "Baby Blue," encourages us to see Walt's meth empire as the girl at the center of a ballad, though since "El Paso" comes at the beginning of the episode we don't necessarily see the connection then. Here's the end of the song, though, if you want to find the parallels to the final moment of the episode:
Something is dreadfully wrong for I feelA deep burning pain in my side.Though I am tryingTo stay in the saddle,I'm getting weary,Unable to ride.But my love forFelina is strong and I rise where I've fallen,Though I am weary I can't stop to rest,I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle.I feel the bullet go deep in my chest.From out of nowhere Felina has found me,Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side.Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for,One little kiss and Felina, good-bye.
Walter White lays his bloodied hand on a silver tank used for cooking meth and dies on the floor, surrounded by what's left of his empire. That's the nice thing about chemistry equipment and drugs-- they'll never leave you so long as you keep coming back for them.

LSE British Politics and Policy
Education's biggest challenge is ensuring consistency in what is being done across the system, within each school, and within each classroom
0 comments | 21 shares
Lee Elliot Major and Andy Eyles write that when it comes to education reform, it is not so much what you do that counts, but how you do it. Policies need to be implemented well to make a difference and delivery needs to be consistent.
Variation, variation, variation. These should be the words resonating in the minds of Nadhim Zahawi and his new Ministerial team for Education as they scramble to get up to speed with Whitehall's battles over the future funding for England's schools. Forget shiny new schemes or ideas: education's biggest challenge is ensuring consistency in what is being done across the school system, within each school, and indeed within each classroom. That's the lesson from education research – whether we're talking about teaching, tutoring, extending school time or deploying funds for poorer pupils.
It's refreshing that research has featured prominently in the opening salvos of this government spending review. This saw former education catch-up tsar Sir Kevan Collins resign in the summer. Treasury officials were unconvinced by the evidence behind his proposals for an extra £15 billion for schools – including a bid to extend classroom school time by an extra 30 minutes a day.
Ministers and civil servants yearn for absolute certainties. But researchers can only offer best bets, good hunches, and lots of ifs and buts. We only know so much, and classrooms are bundles of complex human interactions. You need to cast your net wide to capture the most reliable studies. Evidence tends to be mixed and mostly correlational rather than causal. This is noted in this helpful summary, which discusses how supported learning and a lengthening of the school day might help stem learning losses caused by school closures.
Our own research shows that millions of pupils missed over half of their classroom days during the pandemic and suffered lost learning that threatens to scar a whole generation. Several other studies have confirmed stark gaps in test scores between children from poorer backgrounds and their more privileged counterparts in the wake of the pandemic. We believe these losses are important to document. But what is the best approach to help pupils recover over the coming years?
One obvious suggestion is to extend school time. This Danish study is one of the most robust large-scale, cluster-randomised trials investigating a causal link between more instruction time and higher rates of student learning. The trial involved 90 schools and 1,931 fourth-grade students who received three hours extra teaching in reading, writing, and literature a week for 16 weeks. (The cost was approximately $182 per student.) What makes these findings particularly interesting is that the extra instruction time was impactful (raising reading or comprehension scores by 0.15 standard deviations) regardless of whether teachers were free over how and what they taught, or whether they were told to follow a specific set of guidance under an evidence-based programme.
Another profitable approach might be small group instruction or mentoring programmes for children most affected by learning losses. This study compares outcomes between pupils in Germany who were randomly selected to receive one-to-one mentorship from a university student and those who were not. The findings suggest that across a wide range of outcomes that are indicative of later life success – such as math grades and social skills – mentorship improves outcomes for disadvantaged pupils. Interestingly, researchers have looked at how mentoring programmes can help stem learning losses for pupils during lockdown. The results from a recent randomised trial in Italian middle schools show that disadvantaged pupils who were randomly selected for 3-6 hours of free online tutoring, again from university students, did substantially better than their peers who were not given the same opportunity.
High quality studies such as above are particularly useful in that they control for cofounders in a way that, say, studies of cross-country correlations between instruction time and outcomes cannot. But, as this paper highlights, even high quality randomised trials like these can only tell us what has worked (or not worked) in a particular context. What works for the small sample of pupils in Denmark, Germany, and Italy may not work for the large number of pupils in the UK whose learning has been severely disrupted by COVID-19. Policymakers want to know what benefits extended time will have for pupils in schools in range of contexts across England.
Rather than rely on one study, we can also look to summaries of research. The latest synthesis in the Education Endowment Foundation's Teaching and Learning Toolkit suggests extending school 'may not be cost-effective for schools to implement'. Before and after school programmes need a clear structure, and well-qualified and well-trained staff to generate academic benefits. Schools also need to consider the workload and wellbeing of their staff. The synthesis is based on 74 studies over a number of years, mostly in the USA, once again calling into question the transferability of the findings.
When one of us commissioned and co-authored the original toolkit ten years ago, it came to similar conclusions. Now, as then, there are several nuances beneath the simplistic headlines. It's not so much what you do, but how you do it that counts. Things need to be implemented well to make a difference. Delivery needs to be consistent. To understand evidence-informed education is to know this core lesson. Many argue that we should improve teaching in the current school day, before extending it. Others point out that school days already vary in time across the country; what we need is to level up so that all pupils benefit from the same school time.
For the very same reasons, we have critiqued the government's flagship social mobility policies. Providing extra tutoring and pupil premium funds for pupils are sensible things for policymakers to prioritise; but they will only be effective if they are consistently delivered (and targeted at the poorest pupils). This is the difficult, unsexy slog of education reform, the challenge for any Education Minister if they are to make a genuine difference.
