What an amazing 2 days with @m_chiles at @InfoECDubai. Michael delivered his whole school session, delving into the art of giving feedback and also led bespoke faculty sessions. Thank you Michael! #CPD #ProfessionalDevelopment

We’re very lucky to welcome @m_chiles at EC for the next two days, delivering whole school and group sessions based on using assessment and feedback to feedforward and ensure progress. Excited for the next two days! @InfoECDubai #TheEnglishCollege

@Mr_P_Teaching @collabuae Hi, Sorry to hear this. I might have some immediate supply work if you’re interested. Send me a message. Nicola

@LauraLolder Hi Laura - do you have any resources or templates on standardization or moderation? I want to deliver whole school cpd on the what and the why. Thanks

A quick 🧵on standardisation vs moderation - some thoughts for Heads of Department / those who have responsibility for assessment. Let’s talk about the purpose of each, and ways to carry them out successfully. But let’s also be brief, because ya know, time is limited! 1/-

@renamiras @MsGHist Please can I see what you have used for this too?

@MsGHist I can send you what I used at my previous school. ☺️

We are starting a "reading mentors" programme from Sept. Using Y11 students to support struggling readers in Y7. I want to make sure my Y11s are given training on supporting reading. What would you do/give as training?

So nice to see DofE back in action at EC @InfoECDubai #TheEnglishCollege

So proud of all the staff at The English College. We are delighted to publish our BSO report from our inspection October. The highest possible rating in every standard. #outstanding

Such a lovely ceremony this morning for Flag Day. So very proud of our Emirati sixth formers for organising this event. #TheEnglishCollege

In light of the sad news of the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, The English College would like to share our sincere condolences.

@secondaryheadEC @norburydan @iSAMS @GL_Education @StJuliansSPrin Hi Dan, I would be happy to share what we do. My email is nhamer@englishcollege.ac.ae

@norburydan @iSAMS @GL_Education Hey @StJuliansSPrin Dan we do. Tagged in Nicola who is in charge. Not overly pretty but works @nhamer85. Hope you’re good

Does anyone use @iSAMS in conjunction with @GL_Education Assessment suite to store, share, track, interpret and visualise data? Any suggestions on how best to do this?

@MrHand__ @hmcmenamingmai1

Best wishes to teacher friends returning to work today. There are now 72 guided reading resources available on the Google Drive covering a whole variety of topics. Thanks for the amazing contributions #geographyteachers so far. Hope it helps with planning! drive.google.com/drive/folders/…
