@GMB So if parents take children on holiday, I do not process to a fine, but therefore teachers should have the same right so are you suggesting government should cover this cost to schools? If a parents right is to remove their child, that shouldn’t matter the profession?

Should parents be allowed to take their children out of school for up to ten days during term time without facing fines? MPs will debate the idea in Parliament today after a petition launched by mum Natalie Elliott attracted over 100,000 signatures.

@TeachLeadAAli Try to remember your why and how many educators you have inspired. Refine your ability to focus on the positive impact you are having. Ditch giving headspace or time to haters whose opinions are based in jealousy not facts. Everyone’s cup of tea? How boring that would be! 😂

Anon post: I’ll be starting as Headteacher at a Primary School this September — my first headship. I have 30 minutes with all 120 staff members before the CEO speaks about vision and values. I’m considering using the time to share my leadership journey, my philosophy on education, and the values I hold. Do you think this is the right approach? Any suggestions for making the session engaging and meaningful would be greatly appreciated.

Day 9- 6 properties now have no water overnight including those housing children and vulnerable. Not an @thameswater problem and we don’t have the money for court to fight those who will not agree for the work to be completed on the shared 120+ year old pipe. @rdgchronicle
Rebecca Brown@bessles

Day 7- no visit still from @thameswater . One landlord not responding so all 5 houses still impacted until they do. No water pressure to run a shower, filling bath with a bucket whilst it’s still pumping out in to next doors garden. Work can’t start until all 6 agree. Madness.

@thameswater 6 days this has been flowing from a broken 120 year old pipe, disrupting supply to 6 properties. 3 of which house vulnerable residents yet no support available unless all 6 houses can pay to fix it?! 7 day wait for you to clarify a ‘suspected leak’. Madness.

@thameswater @BBCWatchdog We’re well aware of this Chris but this has been flowing for 6 days from a Thames Water main pipe and with three of the houses being rented, getting in touch with landlords isn’t easy. The lack of advice or support from Thames Water inspiring.

Spent the day finalising our T&L Playbook for next year. Core techniques are a mix of @TeachLikeAChamp and @WALKTHRUs_5 strategies. The playbook details the what, how, when and why of each, with videos from @Steplab_co for teachers to explore in labs and with their coaches. 🤓

Always remember - you can dread going back to work and despise the thought.... but love teaching and be an incredible teacher. Keep being honest with yourself and block out noise.

@TeachLeadAAli It was a great day, staff were reflective, buzzing and have taken clear, refined and targeted steps away to apply practically into their own year groups. Great CPD and fantastically delivered!

@Headteacherchat I am also a new head, if you want to reach out please do. It’s really not easy. I would equally appreciate having someone to be a sounding board as much as you may 👍🏻 here to chat if you need it. ☺️

Anonymous post: As a new Head, I feel isolated due to my team's lack of engagement and resistance to basic responsibilities. Middle leaders often push unreasonable complaints, and 'wellbeing' is increasingly used as a justification for avoiding essential duties.
