📒 Barak Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction offers 10 evidence-based strategies that all teachers should know based on key research from cognitive science and research on master teachers. This poster outlines the lot! 👊 REPOST and grab a free HQ copy here: jamieleeclark.com/graphics

In 2021, the Scottish Government committed to recruiting 3,500 additional teachers. There has been no progress made on the recruitment of additional teachers, in fact, teacher numbers have fallen for three years in a row and by 600 last year in Primary schools, while the workload of those in the system remains unsustainable. There are 9 days left for COSLA and the Scottish Government to meaningfully and collegiately commit to addressing workload.

Scotland’s teachers currently have 22.5 hours of class contact time, more than teachers in many other countries in the OECD. Class sizes in Scotland are amongst the highest in the OECD, meaning that Scottish teachers have responsibility for the learning, teaching, assessment and care of more pupils than the majority of their international counterparts. Contractually, each week, teachers only have up to 7.5 hours of time set aside for planning and preparing learning and feedback for all of their pupils. Research has shown that teachers are working an additional 11 plus hours at home and this time is being used for planning and preparing learning - the Preparation and Correction component of their role. A further 1.5 hours for preparation and correction will give teachers more time in the contractual working week to plan and prepare quality learning and feedback for pupils rather than them doing it in their own time. There are 13 days left for COSLA and the Scottish Government to meaningfully and collegiately commit to addressing workload.

Brilliant Derrick , I had created something similar for business management- it works really well and concentrates the mind

Haven't posted for a while. Have been doing a wee bit of business cover @PerthHighSchool . What a fab school. Really enjoyed myself but I've forgotten how knackering it is 😄. Just to remind you of my last 2 training dates of the year.

@gems_sand Using X still a little bit but using LinkedIn and BlueSky a lot more . Don’t like the way X is going.

Question: what social media platforms are local authorities and teachers using to share/promote what they’re doing? Had a discussion today in our team about social media platforms and working out where to be?
