1. We have been struck by the number of schools using coloured paper / overlays as standard interventions for children with reading difficulties. We did an informal Twitter poll & at the time of writing, 74% of the 1,120 respondents said that their school uses this approach.
This ⬇️ The resilience to stand firm in the face of any of the toxic elements below whilst maintaining high expectations is one of the biggest challenges of the job right now.

This.
More schools need to do this. If not every school. Safeguarding needs appropriate capacity to be able to do it justice. Interested to know how Headteacher has structured this- sounds incredible! #DSL #safeguarding #EdChat #PastoralChat @Safernetwork

This is weird and concerning. Coordinated disruption is a headache schools working hard to teach kids don’t need. And for what? Because students can’t leave the classroom when they feel like it? Bonkers. independent.co.uk/news/education…
The recent spate of protesting about school rules, immediately contacting Ofsted, contacting the press, launching social media protests…. it has to stop. Schools have to have systems & rules. Otherwise they become chaotic. Heads cannot feel as though they are unable to lead.

THREAD: Interview lesson mistakes - I’m in the privileged position of having watched a ton of interview lessons. I’ve put together some thoughts on the most common mistakes I see and have tried to give some tips to avoid these.
This is establishing the culture of a school 101. It’s amazing how all stakeholders are liberated by the removal of grey areas & a focus on clear expectations. It only has sustainability when led relentlessly from top to bottom. ‘Drift’ is real if it isn’t.

THREAD: Behaviour – Just putting together some thoughts for our trainees and new teachers. I’ve tried to think about the most common mistakes I still see when it comes to managing behaviour. I've found doing this really useful for me as well.
THREAD: In defense of ‘pace’. Pace has become a dirty word, a proxy for learning sought after by judgmental observers. But slow, dreary lessons with blank faces are no-one's friend. So here are some tips for keeping lessons energetic, fun and pacy!

@Strickomaster @Shivandavis Trusts have to support heads if behaviour is to be tackled effectively. Many heads will never have worked in a school with truly excellent behaviour & relationships. Expectations often very low. Open contempt becomes normalised & left unchallenged.
Behaviour is an issue and it’s everyone’s issue. Schools need to be empowered free of media, parental & Ofsted backlashes to treat behaviour as the serious issue it is.
Shocking thread. Here are some of the key statistics: 1. "More than one in ten teachers have been physically assaulted by a pupil in the last year."
Gosh.. people seal-clapping the “Relationships Yay! Behaviour Management BOO!” nonsense. Giant eye roll. Absolutely no idea. Can’t take them seriously.
@Strickomaster nailing it again. Leading a school a different animal post covid.
Comparing school’s pre/post pandemic is like comparing apples & pears Headship isn’t the same Leadership isn’t the same Pastoral/safeguarding aren’t the same Teaching isn’t the same It’s a different ball game The veneer is similar but under the surface not comparable

@LDonald_DSL @AbbeyfieldSch @CreativeEdTrust This is amazing. Need more of this approach!
Being a DSL is a professional expertise, just like being a qualified teacher. There are non-teaching DSLs out there who have the experience & skill set to lead safeguarding; we want to offer them that opportunity at @CreativeEdTrust 👍🏻 it is in our pupil's best interest!
It takes a lot of strength for schools to stand strong & uphold what they believe is right for their community when faced with these challenges. Even the most “outstanding” of schools will have its challenges.
@LDonald_DSL @AbbeyfieldSch @CreativeEdTrust I am a non teaching DSL/SLT (in another part of the UK), and I can confirm this is an incredible role with an equally incredible salary for anyone looking at it!
@LDonald_DSL @AbbeyfieldSch @CreativeEdTrust What an amazing opportunity! #dreamrole
More schools need to do this. If not every school. Safeguarding needs appropriate capacity to be able to do it justice. Interested to know how Headteacher has structured this- sounds incredible! #DSL #safeguarding #EdChat #PastoralChat @Safernetwork

‘Kids should be allowed to do what they like and if they aren’t then they should riot’ is not the sensible, adult take on school behaviour management some people think it is.
This is weird and concerning. Coordinated disruption is a headache schools working hard to teach kids don’t need. And for what? Because students can’t leave the classroom when they feel like it? Bonkers. independent.co.uk/news/education…
The recent spate of protesting about school rules, immediately contacting Ofsted, contacting the press, launching social media protests…. it has to stop. Schools have to have systems & rules. Otherwise they become chaotic. Heads cannot feel as though they are unable to lead.
As a Head Teacher, there is literally no point where you are off duty.

Leadership is not a race. Deep-rooted change takes time: improvements must be fully understood and firmly embedded and key systems and routines have to become habitual. Samuel Strickland @Strickomaster from Education Exposed 2

THREAD: ‘I’m really struggling with this class.’ How should leaders respond when teachers take this brave step and ask for help? Here’s my thoughts:
@ChronandEcho Sounds like a fantastic school to me, supporting their students with uniform rather than immediately dishing out sanctions.
