If you’ve read the article, what did you think? Are you interested in taking part as a teacher?
If you have any questions just leave a comment here, email us, or leave a comment on twitter (@deciphermydata) with the hashtag #dmdflu.
The project has launched, but we’re still keen for English schools to take part, all we ask is that your headteacher signs off on it (get your consent forms here).
