@Mouhssin_Ismail My daughter is applying to Universities to study English Lit, she is only interested in courses that don't make Shakespeare compulsory. Her reasoning - there are plenty of other authors whose work should be studied.

@AhmedKhattabUK When the Head asked if we could offer a second subject, I offered Physics - the subject I teach 2/3 of my time

The craziest thing about science teaching is the *expectation* to just teach all three sciences to gcse level as a subject expert, when the reality is the science teacher did a biology degree and is now being expected to teach transformers to their top set year 11s.

I've taught outside of specialism before, but always had some lessons of my 'own' subject. This year I am totally outside of specialism. My message would be to check in on any colleagues in this position as it is brutal. Planning, delivering and assessing content you're not...

I think I have reached a simple conclusion, the @EnvAgency has got to go.

In November 2021 the Environment Agency launched a national investigation into illegal sewage pollution. Over 18 months later it decided it would visit the crime scenes to 'secure and preserve evidence' - Who is running this and who is reviewing it? environmentagency.blog.gov.uk/2023/06/23/env…

@MartinSLewis I now answer with Hello? Wait for them to say who they are, then reply with another Hello, I can't hear you...is anyone there?

Just got a scam automated call from 'HMRC' on my mobile. Electronic voice with US accent telling me I hadn't replied to a letter and legal action was being started... "press 1 to urgently speak to an agent".
Decided to play along and see what happened. Pressed 1, man answered saying HMRC, I said "Hello can you tell me which HMRC office you are part of please."
That was enough. He rang off. No fun at all!

@MBDscience Rosie Duffield is my MP, she is brilliant and a breath of fresh air after our previous representative. This whole topic is something the media know her for, but trust me, she replies to emails promptly and follows up when needed.

The news: Cost of living crisis, people worried about being able to afford to pay the bills.
Duffield: tHe wOrD MoThEr iS tAkEn!!!!!!!
Those are exactly the priorities we want from our elected officials./s

My y9 are in the process of doing a science fair and I am after some nice prizes for them (with the criteria of something they would actually like and something inexpensive as I am funding myself). Any ideas would be appreciated please!!! @chatbiology @ChatPhysics @ChatChemistry

For longer car journeys, @MissSDoherty and I have revived the ‘yellow car’ game. It honestly makes for a good bit of light hearted fun. We wondered if ‘yellow car’ was a universal thing? Whose heard of it and who hasn’t?

@rubbiology @HelloRidgewood Amazing, we are trying to develop scientific literacy at KS3 and these would be do helpful
English

Incredibly proud of our new (launched this year) reading strategy in KS3 Science @HelloRidgewood. Once every 10 lessons, students read, reflect, and digest a scientific research paper with the help of a teacher. Developing scientific vocab and nature of science/ HSW awareness
