If it weren't for school French and German, I might never have discovered Romanian and Dutch. Spanish nudged me towards Portuguese, Catalan and Italian. Albanian set me up with Farsi and Turkish. Then Fate took me to Mandarin. Languages are journeys with endless destinations.

@EdnaKrabapple1 @EISUnion There’ll be delay after delay and we’ll never see it. They’ve failed to get 3500 teachers in last five years, another 3 will make no difference.

Anyone else worried at the deal agreed by @EISUnion? Primary teachers have to wait till 2027 & secondary till 2029! Why the wait? Can we really trust any new Parliament to stick to the deal?

30 years on, we remember the 16 children and their teacher who lost their lives at Dunblane Primary School, and all those affected by the tragedy.

But now I am six. I'm as clever as clever So I think I'll be six now for ever and ever In loving memory 🤍

#WordyWednesday: we’re diving back into German’s amazing one-worders! There’s something special about capturing a fleeting feeling into a single word, and German really does it best. What word mash-up would you create as an English equivalent?

Wow. Hampden Park is ready! 🎶🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Watch Scotland v Denmark LIVE on @BBCScotland, @BBCTwo or @BBCiPlayer now. #BBCFootball

If you’re lucky enough to learn a language at school, take it. It might take you on exchanges to France, Germany and Spain, a year abroad, new voyages. You might interpret Albanian in Kosovo, teach Romanian, work with Farsi & Chinese - and discover a whole new life along the way.

@AJOBPickard Meee! Have the new Teams been set up yet? I can’t get into the Microsoft Tennant any more.

Woohoo!!!! Over the moon to get this email tonight #MIEExpert #TeamMIEEScotland who else is in?

Back for another year. Think this is year 5 but honestly lost count 😂 #MIEETeamScotland

@TeachInGlasgow I've been saying this for years. I don't entertain it at all.

Repeatedly telling Scottish pupils over the year that exams don't matter and and that there are no wrong paths is the very definition of the bigotry of low expectations.

Another busy year in the Firrhill Languages Dept. At the end of term we sadly said goodbye to Mrs Readle after 15 years at FHS & Miss Babar as she moves on to pastures new. However, after summer we say hello to Miss McKirdy @hmmck_edu & Miss McFall! Have a relaxing break all!

Learning a language changed everything for me. It didn’t just open doors; it rewired how I think, learn and connect. History spoke louder. Science made more sense. Art hit deeper. Languages don’t sit in a box; they weave through every subject you learn. albarolanguages.com/2025/06/08/lan…
