Mr Beck

On Monday, our EiM Collaboration Group came together to discuss ‘The GTT: From Principles to Practice’, focusing on Dimension 4: Activating hard thinking. We used this D4 one-pager to facilitate meaningful conversations on how great teachers should present content and activities in ways that activate student thinking. The successful implementation of the elements outlined below is key to ensuring that students are thinking hard about the material we want them to learn: ✅ Element 4.1: Structuring ✅ Element 4.2: Explaining ✅ Element 4.3: Questioning ✅ Element 4.4: Interacting ✅ Element 4.5: Embedding ✅ Element 4.6: Activating Please RP if you would like a copy of the D4 one-pager @EvidenceInEdu @ProfCoe @ProfKime

@Djedottuk - Your booking email does not appear to be working?

Fancy an Assistant Headteacher role at a research-informed East London school committed to continual improvement? Look no further… tes.com/jobs/vacancy/a… Get in touch for more information.

@Louiestowell Remember the Titans… no contest.

As we embark on an overhaul of our professional development, induction & wellbeing programmes for 24/25, this recent arrival provides plenty of food for thought… #PuttingStaffFirst @johntomsett @JonnyUttley @JohnCattEd

@ContiUK - I have BMW star-marked Sport Contact 6 tyres fitted to my M135i, but one has punctured after hitting a pothole. Is there any way to tell from the tyre wall itself whether I have the version with or without rim protection? I want to replace like for like.

11 days into a new term, a new academic year, a new role (Deputy Headship), in a new school and we’ve had ‘the call’! See you on the other side!

@Yasmomar I kept trying to give it up… but it always pulls me back in! Mmmmm, coke… might go buy a cold, refreshing can right now! 😂

Public service announcement. I hit 1 Year with no coke - the soft drink - this morning. Absolutely everyone that’s ever known my atrocious diet including hundreds of concerned children wouldn’t believe it but here we are. I will now celebrate with a glass of water. 🤣😭

Congratulations to @ListerSchool alumnus Marvie on a fantastic set of A level results!

A phenomenal set of results from a phenomenal Sixth Form! Massive congratulations to all of the students collecting their results today & a heartfelt thank-you to all of the incredible @ncs6th staff who have supported them in their studies!

Senor Dos Santos is plotting our next destination… #AlwaysAimingForExcellence #WorldClassEducation #ListerTuring2023 #ListerMFL

@Headteacherchat This should be set out in the school’s directed time budget. This should be available to view upon request.

Can anyone help anon? Can you help? In a primary setting, what is the expectation of the time that a teacher should arrive before the children in the morning and leave after them at the end of the day? Thank you.

@Mouhssin_Ismail Congratulations Mouhssin! Well deserved!

Then there was the Year 11 Band, the Elektric Band, the Orchestra and much, much more. What a fantastic way to spend a Thursday evening!

Ruby & Irini gave an impressive rendition of Billie Eilish’s ‘The 30th’! #AlwaysAimingForMusicalExcellence

Fantastic musical performances from @ListerSchool students at this evening’s #WinterConcert! Our Learning Support Department have just performed their version of Wham’s ‘Last Christmas’.

Who doesn’t love a bit of #FleetwoodMac? ‘Dreams’ performed by the interestingly named “Mr Sinclair’s Minions”!

And check out this fantastic student & staff pop band collaboration… #AlwaysAimingForMusicalExcellence
