Madame G.

TW : Mental health issues Today, I put on my pair of trousers, before realising I had forgotten to put on underwear first. I left the house 1h40min after my alarm had gone on. I realised shortly after that that I had left my 'lunch' at home and forgotten to brush my teeth.

@miss_k_dewar @MrTs_NQTs In my former school, this had to go through Safeguarding and pastoral. You may want to check with them before talking to your class. They may have some useful advice too.

@MrFrancisMFL Nooooooooooo! This was so much fun last time I went with my students. 😭

@teechurrr @MrTs_NQTs You could prepare answers to questions about skills important to the role (I would imagine communication, decision making, attention to detail, time management, for example) using the STAR structure.

@SenoritaGris If @pictoline has an Instagram, definitely worth it!

¡Ayudame! #mfltwitterati Good Instagram accounts for students of Spanish to follow?

@freakybutton @Aurelie_LTH @simograv @BotonesSalgado @StefPianigiani Co-planning time! Can be so efficient and save the whole department some very precious time.

Dear Mfl team. What’s are your must haves and must nots for department meetings? #Mfltwitterati #epi @Aurelie_LTH @simograv @BotonesSalgado @StefPianigiani tagging you all because of your reach and insight!👊🏻 thank you

@miss_parkin @MrTs_NQTs Congrats. Be yourself, be consistent, use their names. 😊

I’ve been given a year 9 form class in my new school😮 What’s one way to “get them on side” from the get go? @MrTs_NQTs

@VEverettmfl @joedale A lot more. 😬

What does a 400% increase mean? A 100% increase means it has doubled. A 200% increase means it has tripled? Is that what people understand when they say 200% increase? A 300% increase means it has quadrupled? A 400% increase means it has gone up five-fold? Or am I wrong?

@nourishworkplce No, they don't.

Really important question for you tonight. Do they eat French Fancies in France? And what are the called? Just Fancies? I know lots of you have been to France this summer so hopefully you can help! Bonus question - which is your favourite colour?

@misslawsonmfl Congrats!

Want to find a French partner school to organise a penpal/virtual exchange with? Join this group: facebook.com/groups/3021465… We've had quite a few French teachers join over the last couple of weeks. I think they're getting ready for September! #MFLTwitterati #MFL #EduTwitter

@DulcieDecorum This is not right. I'm sorry that you are in this situation.

It is thought-provoking to see how teachers are once again blamed for something that should not be their responsibility, something that denotes deep-rooted issues in the teaching profession. Teachers' resignation rules in the UK are unaccommodating and unrealistic. (1/13)

I miss teaching for these reasons! 😭

Teachers should let headteachers know, ahead of time, that they need to leave for their own sanity, to avoid schools having to recruit someone new. I'm tired of this. (The end.)

What we know for certain is that the system does not value the wellbeing, physical and mental health of teachers and other staff in schools. It hasn't done so in a very long time. But... (12/13)
