While teacher numbers drop, SEND families face uncertainty and Labour's new education plans are set to overwhelm classrooms, the Education Secretary has found time to film a video with Gemma Collins, at the taxpayers' expense. I've asked how much this frivolous video has cost 👇

@DollyMiddlemiss Check out the latest department for education video!

@KateJones_teach What have I missed now?

Are educators outside of the UK looking at UK Edu Twitter wondering who Gemma Collins is? 😂

@C6_Steve Same! I don't get it. I've seen a post (unsure if it's real or not) she replied on Instagram in the comments that she's going to make everything better & help everyone!

@KateJones_teach I’m looking at it in disbelief!

@AndyBurnhamGM Well done Andy. There's a lot at stake here for you but you've got a lot of support across the country. This feels hopeful, optimistic & as people keep saying you've got that human touch & connection that's really missing at the moment. #AndyBurnham #ForUs 🐝 ❤️

Politics isn’t working for places like ours. I will change that. #AndyBurnham #ForUs

@BenRiceTeach I don't understand it at all.

Genuinely wonder who this sort of thing is for? What category of person will be happy to watch this. Real blind spot for me.

Whole-class feedback: when and why to use this technique? "Whole-class feedback has been very well received, especially across schools in England in the last decade. It’s no surprise that teachers have embraced this approach to feedback. It is a time-efficient and workload-friendly method of providing feedback to multiple learners, either in groups or as a whole class. The teacher reviews a class set of work, such as written tasks, assessments or practice exercises, and provides actionable feedback to everyone rather than writing individual comments on every piece."

Those few seconds after a teacher’s question matter more than we think. Research shows that extending wait time can deepen thinking, improve talk & increase participation. Practical tips from @KateJones_Teach : buff.ly/X0NBIjF #teaching #teachers #classroom

Retrieval practice goes wrong when it becomes a ritual for teachers to perform. The aim isn’t five questions at the start of every lesson. It’s making knowledge available when it’s needed: recalled successfully, used purposefully, corrected visibly, and strengthened for elsewhere and later. open.substack.com/pub/daviddidau…
