The global number of children not attending school has declined by nearly 40% since 2000

Note: Some definitions, though this varies by country and there does not appear to be a universally agreed-upon definition. Primary school = roughly 5 to 10 years old = elementary school Lower-secondary = roughly 11 to 14 years old = middle school Upper-secondary = roughly 14 to 18 years old = high school

"The chart shows the global number of children and adolescents who are not in school across primary and secondary education.

According to the most recent UNESCO data, this number has fallen from 390 million in 2000 to 244 million in 2023. That’s nearly a 40% reduction. The global population of children has grown during this time, making the decrease in out-of-school children even more significant.

Many more children are getting an opportunity to learn now than 20 years ago, but progress has stagnated in the last five years. [Note: A significant amount of that no doubt due to the pandemic.]

Historically, more girls than boys were out of school, but this gap has nearly closed. Unfortunately, the global aggregate data split by gender has not been updated by UNESCO since 2019. This makes it hard to track recent progress between boys and girls."

The only correct soundtrack for Jekyll and Hyde is Darkside by Madison Mars followed directly by Begging by Måneskin as depicted by my head of Drama for our school’s original musical production of the book to avoid copyright.

Other excellent changes to the source material include Dr. Jekyll holding a rave at his house.

55 MINS UNTIL FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL (timbers are shivered, boots are quaking)

[urlocalhovel]

i feel that “Inside Out 2” should be mandatory watching for teens- the first title came out when i was 15, and it did numbers on making me- a mentally ill drug addict with a need to create chaos in my own head- realize how my emotions were affecting my decisions and who had the wheel…

But the first title was based on an 11 year old girl- relatable sure, but it didn’t hit home, y’know?

I feel if I had been a teen when “Inside Out 2” came out, my god I would have realized so much more of what was going on in my head.

I read up on the film and saw that there was other emotions they had to take out as it made it “too dark” and straight up am kinda annoyed they took them out, but obviously I get it- it’s a “kids movie”. It just could have been even better than it already was + even more realistic if they had left it as is.

To any kid under 18 reading this- puberty isn’t forever and though you feel like your entire head and world is warping right in front of you, the storm will calm as you grow. Just take it as it comes, think of the good things that the future holds and for the love of god stay off TikTok💖

I don't know if this is a named sport or something my Secondary School just made up so please help me find any leads.

Standard Soccer rules apply but with the following changes:

- The goalposts are a flat bench that has been turned on it's side facing into the field.

- Scoring a goal is defined as the ball colliding with the face of the bench pointing inwards, collisions with other faces do not count.

- Each team can only have one active player out, with the inactive players behind their team's respective bench.

- Because there is only one player from a team at play at any given time, they simultaneously have the roles and abilities of offense, defence, and goalkeeper.

- When a team's bench is scored against, the active player leaves and an inactive player who hasn't been active previously comes into play.

- When all members of a team have been active once and the final active player is scored against, that team is out and puts their bench back upright to indicate not being at play.

- There can be 2-8 teams, a typical game either has 4 teams with a bench in each corner, or an octagon of eight benches with eight teams.

- Last team standing wins.
