Miss Tiddy 📖

A delightful way to end the term, with the most wonderful students! Loved being an honorary member of team music for the weekend! 🎶🇧🇪

Today’s itinerary consisted of a fantastic music tech workshop and tour of a concert hall, and then lots of chocolate and waffles, before a stunning open air concert in the afternoon!

Glorious weather to kick off our trip to Bruges!

🇧🇪 | Belgium Music Tour We hope all of our students and staff on the Belgium Music Tour have an amazing time! 🎶

And that’s a wrap on this year, and one year at my new school! Just a crack of dawn start tomorrow for a couple of days to Belgium on a music trip and then the holidays can really begin!

🏳️‍🌈| Pride Celebrations Last week to wrap up Pride Month Celebrations, some of our LGBTQ+ students and allies visited Queer Lit bookshop in Manchester where we were treated to delicious hot chocolates and such welcoming staff!

Such a fantastic afternoon taking some of our students to the @ShakespeareNP to watch a @NotTooTame performance of Twelfth Night (starring the one and only @LesDennis)!

Taking advantage of the bus journey to the theatre, with some of our delightful Y9s; a rare moment of teacher calm (particularly needed after a midnight post-prom finish last night).😌📖

100+ Lit paper 2 exams in (with still nearly 200 to go), a set of lit paper 1 mocks done and an incoming set of Lang paper 1 mocks on Monday…marking is slowly taking over my life 🫠

I hear the press have got hold of some pictures and so I have been forced to make this statement. Needless to say, I apologise. shorturl.at/nENOY

In the spirit of vowing to tweet more, here’s a snapshot of some English-y highlights this year; a very Wordsworth (or Taylor?) moment in the lakes, many visits to pretty bookshops, a high-brow theme for world book day and a fantastic evening in convo with @anniemacmanus.

Been a while, so a little update; it’s been a year since I was offered my new post! It’s been a refreshing challenge moving into a curriculum role this year, and can’t believe it’s that time again to say goodbye to Y11. Looking forward to moving into KS3 lead this coming year!

Tomorrow marks a month since starting my new post, so a good time for an update; moving away from a HOY role, I’m now an Assistant Curriculum Lead of English in Greater Manchester. Enjoying being back in the classroom full time and surrounding myself in all things English! 📚📝

Such an insightful and powerful talk at our inset today. Has given me a lot to think about going forward with my planning for the term ahead.

It’s me 🙋🏼‍♀️

Working on reaching my 50 book good reads target! About 20 books to go…

First half term completed as Head of Year 7 and very much enjoying the down time!

Great to see our new sixth formers discussing their high hopes for their future @nottslive @LaycieBeck #WeAreDjanogly nottinghampost.com/news/nottingha… nottinghampost.com/news/djanogly-…
