@Beatdox1 @BBCNews Salary Pension Holidays Fundamental basics in any role. A thank you gift or showing gratitude is unrelated to basics such as these: it is a personal choice, not a necessity or bonus.

@BBCNews Salary, pension and very good holiday terms mean......zero

'I don't want to seem tight': How much should you give to the year-end teacher collection? bbc.in/4vxsjaO

Anglian Water have introduced a hosepipe ban. I think we should introduce a bonus ban for their shareholders. Until such a time that they start building reservoirs and promptly dealing with leaks.

@EllipticalMan @LuciaLobosvilla Yes.

Yes. I read it as a child. Because it’s a children’s book. We keep lowering standards for children’s media and then wonder why kids can’t read or grasp complex concepts. Running into words you don’t know is part of the learning experience. Not an insurmountable obstacle.

@mehlliy @fwtimini Agreed, we don't have to eat meat. The statement is intentionally misleading. Agriculture from crops is different to Agriculture for crops for meat industry animals.

@fwtimini It's not entirely useless tho cuz what uses the most amount of water in the agriculture industry is producing food to feed/maintain livestocks and producing animal products, which we don't really HAVE to 😕 (not defending AI or golf courses in any way btw, hate them both)

"Agriculture uses more water than data centers and golf courses combined" Bro, we have to eat. We don't need to use Al or play golf. This is a useless argument.

@ladygreenkirtle Peak/Off Peak perhaps.

Slightly infuriating that I’ve lived in this stupid (amazing) country for my entire life and I still don’t really understand the trains! Why would Trainline quote me two different prices for an open return ticket, depending if I go at 9:36 or 10:07? So confused

@marcusstanforth @Team_English1 We did 'The Facility' linked to Antigone a couple of years ago.

Planning for the year ahead, does anyone in @Team_English1 that could suggest any Greek plays that work well for Year 8? It's a bonus if it links to one of the myths. #TeamEnglish

@FixingEducation 18

Most people answer too quickly and get it wrong. How many holes are in this sweater?

@scriptwren Agreed. M&S pairs from years ago have outlasted them.

Btw everyone that recommended snag tights- I’m sorry to tell you I bought a pair and they’re overpriced rubbish. Bobbling after a few wears, and a hole in the toe. Fit for the bin. Going back to dance tights for the same price- some of mine are 7 years old and still going strong!

@MsGHist Ours is the Data Manager.

@Jjaytea Any idea who that would usually be? I am at a loss

Has anyone registered ECTs with the new DfE portal and had success? I am still waiting for organisation confirmation 🤯

The Earth was fully stocked: water to drink, soil to grow food, forests to shelter us, a sun that rises every day, a moon that moves water, and oceans that regulate the climate. Then, men invented war, debt and capitalism.

@HeroicMrT Life skill.

One teaching standard or pedagogical skill that is almost intangible and uncoachable is the ability to read the room.

@jenatlionra Important and insightful. Thank you for sharing the reality: I feel that the message here is to write your own CV/resume and not to completely depend on AI. You've proven precisely why we shouldn't lean so heavily on such a system.

I just wanted to update my resume. Instead, I accidentally proved how a multi-billion-dollar AI tool hallucinates a glass ceiling for women. I changed a single variable: My name. Here is what happened when "Jennifer" became "Jeff."

@ENortonHistory @britishmuseum Maybe 16,000 other people were as excited, interested and as curious as you.

Hey @britishmuseum I just waited in a virtual queue for nearly four hours to book members’ tickets for the Bayeux Tapestry and this is what I got when I finally got to the front of the queue. There are now more than 16,000 people ahead of me when I join the queue. How is this acceptable? @drfsawtell

Good morning 🩷

I’ve been informed by folks on this site that The Hobbit and now Jane Austen are too difficult for teens. I can’t stress enough how condescending this is to teenagers. You’re taking away all the things that might bring them joy and leaving them with no pastimes but scrolling.

We had NHS dentists, and free education, we owned Rail, Mail, Telecoms, Water, Energy, Steel and Ship Building, Social housing was built, and we owned care homes. All of this was stolen to allow the rich to rob us forever for using essential services.

I genuinely don’t think people understand how insane this is. In just 50 years, we’ve wiped out around 70% of animal populations on Earth. Not hundreds of years ago. Not ancient history. In one lifetime. Entire species disappearing. Forests going silent. Oceans being emptied. And somehow the world treats it like just another statistic instead of a full-blown emergency. That should scare all of us a lot more than it does.

The internet used to be full of websites; there were millions of them and you could browse for hours and come away smarter rather than dumber. Now there are four sites and they've made half the population illiterate. We've destroyed a wonderful thing, and it has destroyed us.

@PolitlcsUK Fresh fruit, bread and many unprocessed (fresh/frozen) items are on the list and not all are unhealthy, either. Not necessarily what I would choose but outside of the sweets/sugar there are meals, snacks and options.
