Going to pin this tweet and make a thread of silly things my students have asked / said to me at school. Here goes:

@JaneHutch_2609 @UnitedLearning Agreed - so incredibly pleased!

@UnitedLearning Such a deserving winner. Well done Harriet 🥳❤️

And the winner of the Secondary Teacher of the Year Award is... Harriet Edge from Barnsley Academy! 🎉 Congratulations! ow.ly/UWFn50WcntC #BiEAwards2025

So proud of my HoD ❤️❤️

Brilliant whistlestop visit to Denmark and Sweden this weekend to see the king of clay @RafaelNadal - happy summer holidays!! ☀️ 🎾

And congratulations to Sarah too! She has done so much for music at BA and truly is a deserving winner.

Feeling proud to have played a part in Kaitlyn being selected for this award! Congratulations ⭐️

@LNER hello, by any chance do you have an updated arrival time for the 17:10 DON to EDB service? We have a new puppy I’m desperate to meet!

@NicAubury @bedsqpublishers All good here thanks! You’ll be impressed as I’m now teaching Latin as an academic extracurricular

@NicAubury @bedsqpublishers Looks amazing - I’ll be ordering!

@jeremycorbyn thank you so much for speaking to the visiting pupils from Barnsley Academy yesterday in Parliament - for many of them it was their first time in London and their first experience of how Parliament works so thank you for making time for them!

@EastMidRailway big props to the crew (especially Keely) on board the 16:02 St Pancras to Sheffield service - doing their absolute best to make sure passengers are comfortable despite overcrowding and cheering us all up!

@TTRadioOfficial MFL - that you have to be a native speaker to be a languages teacher! I was about 4 months in when a kid asked ‘Miss, why do you have a Scottish accent if you’re French’ 😂

What stereotypes do you think people hold about your subject?

@sammilighthead Congratulations to him, that’s a fantastic achievement!

Son got 3As today and he was predicted ABB. I am so proud of him!

Congratulations to everyone receiving their A Level results today - I hope it went well for you all and if not, DON’T PANIC! Remember you are worth more than a grade ❤️

And the winner of the Computing Award is... Drew Leondard from Barnsley Academy! 🎉 Congratulations! ow.ly/RJyb50OUHLh #BiEAwards2023

Join us in congratulating Elliot Blades from Barnsley Academy, the winner of the Creative Writing Award! 🌟 Well done! ow.ly/u8Fw50OUHR5 #BiEAwards2023

Fantastic evening celebrating the very best of our students and staff at the @UnitedLearning #BiEAwards2023 - so proud of our three winners Elliot, Jack, and Drew, who are amazing ambassadors for our school. Congratulations to all! 💙

Any thoughts on the Edexcel Spanish writing today?

@EastMidRailway Thank you very much - appreciate the swift response. Have a great rest of your day.

@mflyorkshire Hi Eilidh. Yes, your ticket will be valid on the 14:37 instead. ^JS

@EastMidRailway hi, I have a ticket for the cancelled 13:37 Sheffield - London, am I able to get on the 14:37 instead? Thanks
