Open evening 2025 complete - 3 new displays made, classroom destructed, set up and reconstructed. Teaching isn't for the faint hearted!

Proud form tutor moment when one of your quieter form baby not only stands on the stage and delivers a perfect speech but is the opening act of the @SpeakersTrust Suffolk final! #speakoutchallenge #speakerstrust

It's taken some time to truly come to come to terms with the loss of Dawn. I am the teacher I am today because of her shes the foundation of everything I do and I can remember the sheer awe of watching her teach. I was truly blessed to have Dawn as a mentor and friend. #TeamRE

Teaching the Jon where you have the highest highs and the lowest lows in one day!

Conversation with a year 11 yesterday, "miss in our lesson today sir used you as his example of a strong independent woman" - best compliment I've ever received at work!

Happy RE teacher moment when a child feels safe enough in my classroom to say "in my religion..." and have other pupils totally respect them and build on the discussion! #teamRE #happyteacher #REteacher

@PascoePhysics Of course. Anything for you. 🩷

@emma_meakin I might well come and pick your brains about this next week then!

First day of teaching with the ipad not the desktop - behaviour was better, transitions better, wish I had it sooner!

Reason I love rugby - men's international being refereed by the amazing Hollie Davidson and all 30 men respecting her decision without a question.

If it's going to be this cold can I at least get snow!

@RETeacherSue Oh no soothers at the ready, I am shattered forgot how draining they can be!

@emma_meakin Same! Now my voice is croaky!

First parents evening for 2024-2025 done!

2 week half you've been glorious but the Sunday night scaries are getting hard now!

3 hours later 21 sets of reports written. This year is going to be an admin nightmare I can feel it now 🫣

@JFAdamRE Thank you. Hope you've had a great half term.

@emma_meakin Some huge wins here!! Congratulations have a restful and well deserved half-term you’ve achieved a lot already ☺️🙂‍↕️

Reflecting on the longest term - ☑️ teaching all of KS3 using the disciplinary approach to RE ☑️ my year 9 can use the words deontological and teleological correctly ☑️ year 7 who love their PRE lessons Not a bad start to the year, actually a very happy HoD!

The staff secret wellbeing buddy scheme is truly the best thing, today they remembered my little pooches too!

Smashed supervising year 9 cross country in a pair of heels and pencil skirt today! Feeling very proud of myself even if the kids found it hilarious me on the field!
