Woowee! This is what we bought each other for Christmas. What an absolutely perfect day for it.


As the authoritarian lobby group continues to flog out-of-date Kool-Aid to a global audience, it's to be hoped that England turns its back on the 20th century, and starts to grasp the present. You can't educate kids by traumatising them. It's time to understand them. 4/4

When I look on my teaching career, the darkest times were always those when I didn't manage the noise well enough and became too sucked up into always-negative conversation and bouts of (righteous) outrage


@adamboxer1 Keep an exercise book on your desk. Date every day. Note every single conversation, discipline (phone/ person) about a child and keep doing it forever. Saves incredible amounts of time and resists duplication.








Teaching with just a pen is a hugely under-estimated art that can have a profound impact on pupil learning…. It relies on the teaching being the expert.
