Rare great news about the government finally banning phones in schools. Enraging champagne and hand clapping emojis all round. Next step - get rid of screen based learning. It’s crap, it’s stealing the children’s data and it deepens their screen addiction. Here below is me ranting with the great Prof Jonathan Haidt and Sophie Winkleman on this.

@MrsWOfficial Would really like to learn more about the specifics of the test eg how many pupils, age groups, number of words tested, logistics of the test

@MorrisonRJ This was the result of a study performed by the National Literacy Trust in the UK which used a vocabulary test to assess children's knowledge of words before and after they were exposed to our products and found 50% improvement in their performance.

@languagenut @henson9_chelsea 1) be (over)prepared
2) always appear confident
3) get to know pupils’ names quickly
4) be firm and consistent
5) know who you can turn to for help
6) after work talk about how things went-don’t bottle things up
7) have plenty of booze available
8) learn from your mistakes
