I see Clev's weapon of choice is a Bic 4-Color Ballpoint Retractable Pen.
A true connoisseur. 🧐 #Pafc

"The injury Joe [Ralls] suffered was on the borderline of surgery. We've come to the conclusion that Joe will go for surgery. He's probably played his last game of the season." - TC
Back Stronger, Joe 💪🏼
Should we be looking to tie him down for next season now? 🤔

Reading education blogs changed my practice, so I always want to try take the opportunity to share the love.
Here are a few free blogs I've read recently that I thought were super, please share if you can!
I work at a school that doesn't have merit points or rewards or anything like that, so this piece by @msrebeccabirch on intrinsic motivation really appealed to me: rebeccabirch.substack.com/p/on-chasing-t…
We are in the midst of an SEND crisis, and part of the problem is outlined by @head_teach: that some schools have astonishingly higher numbers of students with SEND than others: matthewevanseducation.substack.com/p/magnetic-sch…
@joel120193 is smashing out hit after hit on his blog, and this piece on the sheer amount of things teachers have to do resonated: joel120193.substack.com/p/the-60-minut…
@mpershan wrote a typically scholarly, wide-ranging and sophisticated piece on implicit vs explicit learning, the memorisation of maths facts and much more. pershmail.substack.com/p/understandin…
Next up are two posts on AI:
@alex_crossman has written an excellent piece on the risks of AI to education. Our job is to get students' thinking hard, and AI's job is to get people thinking less hard. These aren't compatible, and we need to pull the brakes hard. powerfulknowledge.substack.com/p/its-time-to-…
Whilst not strictly about education, Gary Marcus's entry here about the security risks of OpenClaw and other weird things is vital if we are to take internet and AI security seriously. garymarcus.substack.com/p/openclaw-aka…
Of course, I've been blogging too, and you can check out my entries here: carouselteachlearnlead.substack.com
As stated at the outset, please share if you can!

With tonight's goalie having a run in the team, we are likely to be going down, not up. We need a decent one to come in this week. #pafc

Not sure this is a parody!!

Hi all, It has come to our attention that some colleagues are not marking their Disadvantaged Students’ work first. This really is not good enough. Ofsted want to see this. Starting today, you must video yourself marking work and upload the clips to TEAMs. Thanks x

As someone who’s a US veteran but half British, I’ve got some shit to say.
During my 10 years in the Navy and Army I’ve spent a lot of time working close with NATO operatives from all over Europe.
The British soldiers used to always make fun of me because I had a US flag on my shoulder, always being told (you’re In the wrong uniform).
Until 2009 when I was in Afghanistan operating medevac flights from Bagram to Ramstein and we had about 60 UK soldiers being flown back, missing limbs, almost fatal wounds and even a few deaths.
That was when I realized that It didn’t matter of which flag was on our uniforms, we were all brothers and sisters fighting in the common enemy.
457 British soldiers lives were lost fighting a war we asked them to jump into and you know what, they did without fuckin hesitation!!
That’s what you call a true ally. A true hero. And real brother in arms.
So to that fat orange piece of shit who said that they were standing “a little back off the front lines” I want to remind all of his boot licking cult members that I have a friend who’s a former royal marine, that lost his left arm and right leg for being “a little back off the front lines” and even though he’s living his life with his family, he made the ultimate sacrifice. When I spoke to him today he wasn’t just angry, he felt betrayed. I reassured him that you don’t know how grateful we are. So to all who are laughing at this……….
Go FUCK YOURSELVES!!!
I couldn’t be more proud to serve my country during the hell that we went through in both Iraq and Afghanistan, but I couldn’t be more prouder than serving along side my NATO forces.
Because if they weren’t there, I would probably be dead today!!!
FUCK TRUMP ALL THE WAY TO HELL AND HIS BOOTLICKING ASSHOLE SIDEKICKS
MAY THEY ROT IN PISS!!!!!

On my bucket list is watching England at the FIFA World Cup. I cannot go this year due to money and working, but there would be no way that I would go and watch them in America whilst the orange buffoon is president. #BoycottWorldCup2026

I am thinking of taking my name off the Cleverly out petition. An entertaining match, and a deserved victory. #pafc

My thought for the day; seating plans need to be set by the teacher. Students will choose to sit with their mates and in most cases, this results in less productivity. #teacherthoughts
