@PLAYairlines it would be helpful if you staffed your services at Reykjavik airport. Delayed flight over 8 hours and no representatives have been here to speak to in person.

@GeogWithSloggs Do you look at the issue through the lens of one country case study? I’ve thought maybe a mapping/data activity one lesson the maybe case studies the next

@JuvelleTaylor_ Different students looking at different regions and feeding back in some sort of presentation could work! Thanks!

@GeogMissC You could look at case studies by region .. there are various factors that may influence these rates.. East Asia has Japan and China.. Europe (Italy and Spain), in the Middle East (Iran and Turkey) .. look at how economic development, urbanization, education etc are important 😃

@GeogMissC There was a good BBC Article on this subject, you could use it as a guided reading? It focused on S Korea, I think!

@GeogMissC Japan? There's a village with dolls- more than people- a sign of ageing population

More needs to be done to solve this crisis. So many of us are one step away from doing the same. Teaching should be a brilliant career choice for parents, but making it work requires decision makers to be flexible, understanding and to understand the value of PT staff.

We talk a lot about the recruitment crisis in education; about the inability to find enough applicants to fill our ITT courses. But it’s as much a retention crisis as it is anything to do with recruitment. 🧵 (1/5)

WE GOT THE WIN ON CHILD BENEFIT! Chancellor tipped me off before budget, said this was due in large to MSE/my shows campaigning all based on all those of your who messaged me to say it was the key thing to put to him So 1) From this April threshold which hasn't moved since 2013 rises from a single parent earning £50,000 to £60,000 and you lose child benefit totally at £80,000 (not £60,000) 2) Consultation on moving it to family income not individual income and hopefully that'll be in place from April 2026 (this is to stop unfairness for single income/single parent) families. #Budget2024 #BudgetXplanations

At 39 weeks 🤰today I hope the person that stole (luckily) only SOME of our packed things for the hospital from our car enjoys reading my birth plan and hits every red light for the rest of their lives and just for good measure stubs their toe really hard.

Still no signs of baby so going into school today to see our students collect some amazing results, speaking with parents and hanging out with colleagues making classroom displays really made my day! Thanks @DrummondShan ❤️
