Great day talking all things Geography at @SkegnessAcad @GreenwoodAcad and a great walk by the beach before evening planning commences!

During OS Innovation Festival, we asked the Map Men to share their top tip for anyone getting into map reading.
Knowing the difference between map scales is a fundamental navigation skill. It helps you interpret the level of detail and choose the right map for your activity. 🗺️

I don't know if its just mine, but the new Alexa sounds very sassy, insincere and quite sarcastic!

✔️ Schools out in Leicestershire
✔️ Ofsted survived
✔️ Still standing (just)
Signing off...ish. There's just the small matter of SATs results to sort over the summer. 👀
Until then, this tired, slightly sweaty🥵😅 headteacher will be attempting to recharge. Happy summer☀️

DfE really are the gift that keeps on giving... ANOTHER statutory publication update realised today. This time on attendance.
@educationgovuk @bphillipsonMP - do you know that it's nearly the end of term?! This shows such a lack of regard for leaders 😒

Give my team @Inner_Drive 25 hours to work with your team on:
- Working memory
- Retrieval practice
- Spacing
- Interleaving
- Cold Calling
- Wait Times
- Clear Explanations
- Feedback
- Attention
- Question Difficulty
…and it will be some of the best CPD you will ever have 🧠

Here's the question I think we should be asking about school improvement right now: What would be the impact on student achievement of giving every teacher 25 hours of professional learning on the science of learning? Without this, leaders cannot prioritize improvement efforts.

As part of #NationalMapReadingWeek, a reminder that map reading still matters in 2026. GPS, apps and sat navs are incredibly useful, but they should build on and not replace good geographical understanding!

Why bother learning to read a map in 2026? During this year's OS Innovation Festival, we put the question to the Map Men Mark Cooper-Jones and Jay Foreman. Their answer is a reminder that, even in an increasingly digital world, map reading remains a valuable life skill. 🗺️

It's one of our favourite times of year - National Map Reading Week! 🗺️
For this #MapMonday, how many map symbols can you see and name?
And bonus points if you can tell us where we are! 👇

A really valuable afternoon at the Royal Society, discussing mathematical and data education with representatives from different subject areas and members of the Advisory Committee on Mathematics Education. Lots of rich discussion about how MDE is taught across the curriculum, and plenty to reflect on over the next few days. @royalsociety #ACME #geography

Highly effective adaptation is where it is applied to such a degree, it is *almost* invisible. What becomes more visible in fact, is that students not only achieve academically, but also experience success as part of their lived experience. Excellent work from @EducEndowFoundn

Confirmation of the worst kept secret in education: I’ve written a book! About four years ago I was lucky enough to get stuck into the science of belonging as part of a fellowship. I’ve poured all of the insights I’ve learned into this. And I’m excited! Preorder available now!

On way to London to the @royalsociety to discuss all things mathematical and data education across the curriculum :) #MDE #geography #geographyteacher

Have already heard brilliant things about this with regards to the work @jon_hutchinson_ has been doing on Building Belonging - will be a great addition to the @Inner_Drive CPD books :)

I used to use this a lot you can also make cameo fill the screen so if you want to be using the visualiser most of the time but also like in geography want to have some images cued up as well you can. You can also hyperlinks between the slides so you can quickly go back to the slide that in effect is acting as the visualiser :)
