@Headteacherchat Been involved in a lot of these, enjoy the camorsdery, smile and look on Only those with a lack of control will let you down. In most cases they won't. Only seen 1 drunk person in 20 years, happena even less nowadays

Anon post: Seeking advice. I'm the head of a small school with a dedicated PTA planning an adult-only quiz off-site with alcohol. They want staff to attend. Is my hesitation unreasonable?

We thank the DOMEG team for coming to our school to deliver assemblies to our Year 10s and 12s in readiness for work experience later in the year

@EDPimages I know she is telling the truth your amazing!! Miss u

I don’t generally share such things but this had me crying for ten minutes. One of my all time favourite pupils had had his last day today and it began with a delivery from him and his Mum. Some children are unforgettable and truly will stay in your heart forever.

Congratulations to the Year 7 students who won the Colm Murphy Rugby Sevens event today. We’re so proud! #SJFsport #ThisIsSJF🥇🏅🥇

So what makes a good form tutor? Hit me with your top tips?

Ultimately, I want to support schools and save months of work by providing an attendance framework. This will allow schools to focus on the improvement job - working with children. DM me for details. Join over 530 schools using the same framework

@tombennett71 @HowensL Sir what was the impressive schools name! Well done indeed.

@HowensL Bet it was

I visited a school today where they are just getting so many things right for the kids it's joyful. Boundaries set with love. Targeted support for children who need it. Consistency, and taught routines for the whole community. Consequences to reinforce values. Chapeau!

Dawn of our first proper teaching day on City Way! We’re so excited to be here and looking forward to students arriving soon. #ThisIsSJF #SJFcityway ⁦@WatesGroup⁩

I’m looking for some fab school leaders to review my book ahead of its release in March. It’s a digestible read on how to create the conditions within our schools to have the greatest impact on the pupils we serve. RT or like this post for a chance to get a cheeky preview!👇🏽

Our City Way site opens on Monday 20th February - just five weeks to go until we are there! The building is nearing completion - please see latest pictures below... #ThisIsSJF #SJFCityWay

We are delighted to announce that we are once again inviting former staff and students back to Ordnance Street for a second Goodbye to Ordnance Street event alongside our Christmas Fair on Saturday 3rd December 10am – 1pm. Further details to follow - we would love to see you!

Over the past few weeks, I have changed the way I present retrieval practice. I now do back-to-back questions, same wording, different numbers. I used to do 1 segment of retrieval practice per lesson, pupils only had 1 chance to be successful in the 6 questions per lesson 1/n

@TLemon_PE @LizDurdenMyers @NWalkerPE @BenShields2 @PhilMathe79_PE Mass participation sports days where every student takes part in every event. Generate scores as a tutor group and then celebrate the winning outcomes. Everyone has the chance to do everything and suprise themselves and their peers. Message me for more. Chris

Looking for alternatives to the traditional "Sports Day" with a purely athletics focus. Any thoughts? #schoolsport #PhysEd #sportsday #edutwitter @NWalkerPE @BenShields2 @PhilMathe79_PE

@WayneH4444 Please can I be sent this

We are building a fantastic resource pack for attendance leaders. A national crisis requires a national solution - we have started a titanic shift! Changing children’s lives!🙏❤️👇

It was lovely to see you - please visit again soon! #ThisIsSJF

Delighted to be awarding these medals at the Deanery Games this afternoon! #ThisIsSJF

Thank you to the inspiration from @missgeog92 and shared resources from @MissHolmes_PE I have been able to create a careers board for ‘Where can PE & Sport take you?’ to encourage conversations relating to different jobs in the sports industry🏅📌 @MaghullPE @MaghullHighsch

I have no idea what this is or who he is. Some of it I have no idea what he’s even saying. But this sounds awesome!

@damianmcbeath @TJWA_Ashford How's it looking now!? I can't wait to see the pictures.

Work has started on the brand new @TJWA_Ashford Library and it is going to be Epic!!!
