@ProudlyPastoral HATE it. I'd rather go back to SIMs.

Since coming back after half term, we've migrated to Bromcom... can't say I'm enjoying it so far! 2 outages this week as well 🤦 not ideal

@AndrewDLowery @adamboxer1 Ha! I remember this doing the rounds when I was just out of NQT about 16 years ago. I also remember using it in an interview lesson to much raising of eyebrows 😆😆😆😆😆😆

@adamboxer1 We had CPD on ‘engaging’ ways to capture prior knowledge, one of example was ‘snowballing’ - write your idea on paper, scrunch it up and throw it at someone, then you unscrunch and read the papers. Did it in a lesson for the sake of ‘supporting the initiative’ and was told off!

Have you heard any nonsense ideas in training or CPD in last 6 months? Was it external or in house?

Currently running the Bangkok Marathon and scheduled this tweet! My main aim is to raise awareness for @wearehappydoggo to fix the problem globally A follow for @wearehappydoggo would be massively appreciated. Dream would be to finish and see 200,000 followers there🙏

We were thrilled to welcome three outstanding guest speakers for today’s INSET! Staff enjoyed thought-provoking CPD sessions focused on key educational priorities and left inspired with new ideas to take into the classroom. 👏 @RealGeoffBarton @Sue_Cowley

A huge pleasure today to visit the @TheRadclyffe, Chadderton, Lancs, to talk about the classroom implications of the @oracycommission report. Thanks to all the staff for such a warm welcome to their wonderful school. A bonus to bump into the indefatigable @Sue_Cowley

@RealGeoffBarton @TheRadclyffe @oracycommission @Sue_Cowley Thank you so much again for your time today. It was a real privilege to have you spending time with our staff, and the input from you - and all our guests - was absolutely what we needed to hear.

@BexBookaholic Love, love, love Backman and it reminded me of Beartown too. (Although I struggled with Beartown no 2 which I found really repetitive but no 3 was beautiful.) Amazingly emotive writer.

A stunning love song to childhood friendship, loss and the redemptive power of art, I finished this earlier today sobbing. Backman is without doubt THE author of our generation and I am in awe of his talent. Up there with the Beartown Trilogy, this is one of the best things I've ever read. #BookTwitter

@Colin_G_NE Yes but, reading what exactly?

@BexBookaholic @PJSkinnerAuthor Search online for Ben's in an orange bottle. Almost 100% DEET and the only thing that works for me - much needed as I'm also allergic to the bites 😣. Not cheap, but worth every penny. You can usually find it on Amazon.

@PJSkinnerAuthor Ooo that's good to know

I am wearing Avon Skin So Soft, 50% Deet AND citronella bracelets on ankles and wrists... yet I've still been bitten within 30 hours of being here.

Today’s animal welfare hero is @NiallHarbison. Niall rescues, feeds and rehomes hundreds of dogs in Thailand every year. 🐶 Thank you for caring Niall 🙏.

There is no Cost of Living Crisis. Supermarkets have permanently quadrupled their profits. Energy Companies have permanently x10ed their profits. It is a Cost of Greed Crisis and it needs to be reversed.

Thames Water, which is over £16 BILLION in debt, has just been granted a £3 billion rescue loan. Last December it was still paying fat dividends to bosses and shareholders. This corporate greed and entitlement needs to be stopped. As I’ve said before: It’s fucking WATER.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

How much does illegal migration cost the UK each year? 2023-2024 = £482 million How much does tax evasion cost the UK each year? 2023-2024 = £5.5 billion Which are we getting angry about the most?
