@ShakinthatChalk @kingston2707 I had this for years…B12…now on injections which is a game changer! I feel normal again

@kingston2707 Next on my list. Possible sleep apnea

So my blood tests came back normal except a hydration issue. My blood pressure and pulse rate wouldn’t look amiss in a teenager and the private hormone panel for testosterone etc came back normal/pretty good. I’m hardly overweight unless I want to see abs. So why am I so tired?

@HecticTeacher Thank you

The other videos that I am working on include: Time Management tips Note Taking - Note copying PACE Study - How to consolidate your learning PACE study - How to extend your learning PACE Revision There are likely to be more but I havne't thought of them yet.

Here is the first of a series of study skills videos that I am working on for 6th form tutor next year. This one is one the transition to A-Level study looking at the differences to GCSE, the challenges and the tips on how to make a strong start: youtu.be/-M6bvLjQM20

@Nkwameeee Italia 90 🤣

Be honest, Which world Cup did you watch first?

Champion Mentality vs. Victim Mentality

With the manifestos for the main parties announced I have shared a General Election summary with staff and students ahead of our mock election. Fully hyperlinked for anyone that wants to look up their constituency, candidates and compare their personal political philosophy.

I used to run a removal room where students were sent for disruption etc. 90% of the time I would ask the student what happened, and the response was, ‘That teacher just hates me/ I was just asking a question/ I got sent out for laughing’ etc. Then on investigation what really happened was they told the teacher to f*** off/ they smacked another kid in the head/ they were texting someone. That was so common it became normal. Why? Because in order to displace responsibility, a huge number of people, students will make stuff up. It’s so obvious that it feels odd to even have to say that. That doesn’t mean that ‘all kids do’ but it does mean that we don’t just take their word for it as a default, wide-eyed and uncritical. I’ve worked with kids who put in windows and punched each other on camera, who denied it to their parents, who then rang in angry, saying, ‘He wouldn’t lie to me!’ None of which means we default to ‘not believing’ either. Safeguarding means we treat allegations seriously. But when you work with large populations of students who muck around, you learn to make professional assessments of truth claims.

@MrsLWalkerPE1 I park in the same space 🤣

Does anyone lose their car in the school car park? It’s becoming a regular occurrence that I cannot remember where I parked in the morning. In fact I don’t even remember arriving some days!! 🤣🫣😅

So much to learn from this video on how City and other teams work on keeping a cohesive high line. Let's break it down….. twitter.com/obviouslyruben…

A reminder that we are bringing @PEScholar up’t North. A canny day awaits with the Concept Curriculum guru @Lee_Sullivan85 and some random Yorkshireman tagging along for the ride! Visit the PE scholar website to enrol today!

@missdcox @Steven_Berryman % of top grades (8/9 or Distinctions) 🤷‍♀️ was one I saw the other day…I mean surely % above their targets could be more useful.

@Steven_Berryman wow! really? When you say results? just a list of how many of each grade?

If a job application says "evidence of excellent results" what do you think they actually want to see?

Really pleased with the effort from these girls, no real practice because we couldn’t use our fields and came 3rd in the tournament. Lots of progress made @PE_CCW @CC_Whitby

Chipping today for the girls golf rocks group @PE_CCW

@mrsangovePE Increasingly getting worse and we definitely needs to look to change more than ever. The level of anxiety created for some at performing/ competition. Need some new ideas to engage the girls, tried a few things but some judge (staff) as a cop out and not teaching…

@ccw_PE Yep. The sportsperson in me is crying … but when you’re faced with complete avoidance or trying to get kids to appreciate the human body and be kind to it … I’m afraid there’s no fence to sit on 😭

My name made it to print …🤩 Tackling disengaged girls has been one of my departmental priorities. It’s stressful and not always rewarding but at core level we appreciate we’re not always developing sportspeople. Health is where it’s at 💪🏼🫀🧠 #nonparticipants #healthykids
