@RealGeoffBarton I remember hearing you talk at a Youth Sports Trust event and was inspired by your true passion for the student as an individual. You truly believe in education for all. 👏

Many, many thanks for all the kind comments on my being awarded a CBE. Tonight I’ll raise a glass to the amazing pupils, colleagues and leaders I’ve worked with, learnt from, and been privileged to represent over a career of almost 40 years. A happy new year to you all.

This is why working with children is so brilliant. ‘Arthur lives down the hill and I live up the hill.’ 🥰

@Miss_GBurton @HolocaustUK Great work @Miss_GBurton

@kateowbridge It’s incredible isn’t it

OMG this is the saddest book I have ever read. I cried twice by the pool. Never have I been so grateful for my life, warts an’ all.

Why don't TED Talks and keynote presentations start with learning targets, relevance statements, success criteria and a slide displaying the connected standards? Maybe it's because everyone knows it would kill interest in the topic right from the start.

@smithsmm 👏

Schools can already do this. Most schools have already done this. Not new…purely done for a headline.

@MrFallick I’d be really interested in how this pans out. I’m AHT ic of 6th form. This would work a treat. Would you set it up so they can’t respond 🤷‍♀️

🚨 🚨 Attendance 🚨🚨 I’m exploring the possibility of using WhatsApp business to ‘nudge text’ students as a method to attend school in a supportive and empathetic approach. If you have led on something similar please can you reply to this thread…

@KKNTeachLearn I often think that. There was a point when I had Mondays off. It was fabulous. I fully enjoyed both days!

@MrFallick It’s a constant challenge & balance of the guilt factor. Children at home and in school are the same … they just want you truly present & interested. You don’t have to be “the best” (it’s no way possible) Just care.

On the flip side, balancing self-improvement with managing and nurturing family life is a real challenge, and one I am nowhere near having it right! Would love to hear from school leaders with toddlers on how they consistently do it. Have a great Friday, everyone!

Planning to step up my online presence after a rollercoaster year. Started as DH and a father of two under two. Excited to share leadership insights, blogs, and some good old PE resources. Let's connect and learn together! 🚀 #Leadership #SharingKnowledge

@KKNTeachLearn 👏

@EmathsUK @roryjohnson55 PE one 😂

Still the best set of school job adverts ever…

@KKNTeachLearn For now …… 😉

@FlixtonGS Where did you get the badges?

Our anti bullying ambassadors have been preparing for anti bullying week next week. They are ready to #makeanoiseaboutbullying

@Elitesports1027 @PrimaryHT_Mum Could you send me info please fengelbrecht@moulshamhigh.org

@PrimaryHT_Mum Let us know if you would like an Elite inspirational athlete visit to your school?

If you haven’t tried a standing desk for some of your children - fully recommend!!! Amazing impact!

@ThePiXLNetwork @mansheadacademy @PupilProgressUK @alpsva Really useful!

Another idea from the #PiXLNewtork! 🙌 Thank you to Rachael and Jo from @mansheadacademy, who explain how they use #DDTR, as well as integrating @PupilProgressUK and @alpsva products, to make celebrating their successes easy! 🤩 #Post16 #PiXLNationalConference

@MrBoothY6 @LisaMainw

I feel ever so slightly late to the hype, but this is a book so good I finished it and immediately ordered Year 6 a class set. It's absolutely and completely superb and I can't wait to read it with them.

Really useful @ThePiXLNetwork led by the inspiring @RachelPiXL always a great time to get thinking & be strategic. Some useful presentations including @PupilProgressUK @BrettGriffinPP and linking personalised spreadsheet data to ALPs to create individual feedback sheets 😮

@TeachLeadAAli Think I’m having a middle aged moment …. Can’t see link to assembly, just videos and link to blog …. Sorry …. Is your toolkit something we can sign up for?

@fayeengels Hey. I won’t be emailing anybody :) First assembly on link above. Others will be shared via toolkit :)

So I start my Year 11 assembly programme next week as part of the Raising Standards Plan- if you’d like me to share the assemblies, let me know. One below to give you an idea.

@HappyHead74 Go decaf …

Going cold turkey on coffee 2 days ago has simply given me a shocking headache 🤦🏼‍♀️
