Great to revisit Botherdness and its implementation @HYWEL_ROBERTS @RethinkingJames Looking forward to reflecting on the key messages with our team @WhistonJandI

Me and @HYWEL_ROBERTS are doing a free webinar this afternoon on Implementing Botheredness - 4.30-5.30pm. If you can't join us live, we'll send you a recording afterwards. We've had 186 sign-ups so far, but there's room for 500. We'll stick the kettle on. Or maybe an urn. Link ↓

Most behaviour issues aren’t extreme incidents. They’re the small things: calling out, side conversations, drifting off task. In Rebooting Behaviour 2026, we'll help you minimise level disruption. 👀 Early bird ends Fri 13 March Links ↓

IMPLEMENTING BOTHEREDNESS with @HYWEL_ROBERTS FREE webinar this Thu 12 March, 4.30-5.30pm How do we move pupils from ‘can’t be bothered’ to properly stuck in? We’ll explore the pedagogy of botheredness – stories, stance & teaching that cultivates real investment. Sign up ↓

7 minutes out of every 30 minutes of classroom time are now estimated to be lost to disruption. Why doesn’t tightening behaviour policies solve it? 🧐
