It was fantastic to host @patmcfaddenmp and @CMcKinnellMP at the brilliant @CharterSe16 this morning. Teachers were really positive about how @OakNational's Aila can free them up to have more time with pupils and personalise their support.

This morning @patmcfaddenmp & @CMcKinnellMP visited Charter School Bermondsey, where teachers are using @OakNational AI to create lesson plans This is just one example of how the government's AI Opportunities Action Plan will harness the potential of new technology across the UK

⚡Don’t just take it from us.  Across the 2023/2024 academic year, here’s how teachers found using our resources helped them - from time saved to workload management to improved wellbeing, all of which leave teachers free to spend more time with pupils!  💫1 in 3 teachers use Oak and those teachers are making the most of new resources - with Oak usage up 158% on last year! 💫73% of Oak users see a positive impact on their workload - either reducing their hours, or freeing them up to spend more time with pupils. 💫Oak users work almost five hours fewer per week with the impact growing the more a teacher uses Oak. And these are just the highlights… For a more detailed look at how we’ve impacted teachers over the last year, dive into the full blog post: oaknat.uk/3D3ZFII

On Saturday I married the man I love in front of our family and friends. Ben has seen me through the best and worst of times and I’m so pleased to be able to call him my husband. Thankful to all those who fought for years, and continue to fight, for the rights we enjoy.

Radio 4 even had a live parkour session in the studio, as Sarah Montague attempted to describe Gogoly Yao jumping over chairs... We'll forgive them for getting @OakNational's name wrong, for such a wonderful bit of radio! x.com/BBCWorldatOne/…
The World at One@BBCWorldatOne

Oak Park Academy, a school that provides teaching resources for others, has devised a lesson for parkour - but could we see it as part of the national curriculum? Gogoly Yao, a free running coach, explains the moves he would teach, as well as giving a demonstration 🏃‍♂️ #BBCWato

Can parkour and pickleball pique pupils’ passion for PE? Great to see so much positive coverage of @OakNational's new curriculum plans. As part of a broad and rigorous offer, we're putting a focus on arts, activity, online safety and digital skills
The Times and The Sunday Times@thetimes

New curriculum plans aim to encourage children to stay active in later life as government also seeks to improve standards at “stuck” schools 🔓 This is free to read #Echobox=1730958229-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">thetimes.com/uk/education/a…

We've released a whole set of new curriculum plans today. At the heart of a broad and rigorous offer, we're putting focus on: 🎨 Modern, contemporary artists to inspire creativity 🎾 New sports, from parkour to pickleball, to get kids active 💻 Online safety and digital skills
Matt Hood@matthewhood

Today at @OakNational, we’ve made available something we don’t think has ever been done before: A high-quality, openly licenced model of the entire national curriculum, right down to the lesson level. Some more info on this is below 🧵...

On Tuesday we hosted a sneak preview event to show some of the education community just what Aila can do. It was a pleasure to have @pepediiasio from  @ASCL_UK join us for an excellent panel discussion.

Thought I recognised this in @Samfr’s book - nice credit for @SchoolsWeek and @tom_belger who spotted the massively important line tucked away in DfE annual accounts and broke the story 🙌
