Delighted to have been appointed as Headteacher at Eyemouth Primary School. Mixed emotions leaving my current fabulous schools but excited for a new Leadership chapter, joining the Eyemouth Cluster and the new opportunities to come! @NewtownAchieves @StBoswellsPS @EyemouthPrimary
Useful insights and vivid imagery from @rosemarygrady21 at @SERA_Conference today. Exploring what happens after Into Headship, how leaders navigate multiple and competing storms and what’s left afterwards. Loads to ‘mither over’ further! #SERAconf23
A quote from one of our middle leaders at today’s Pedagogy Workshop: ‘The best thing that’s happen to me as a teacher is to start doing professional reading. My teaching is so much better as result. I now can’t believe some of the things I was doing - and not doing - previously.’

As the eldest of 5 kids, with 4 noisy younger brothers, I spent my teenage years hiding in coffee shops for peace to study. History is repeating as I gain some level of quiet and focus away from my own kids.
Really disappointing to see this regressive step from Scottish Government, removing funding for masters learning for teachers (outwith headship) This reverses decades of policy progress and commitments to improving the professional learning of teachers heraldscotland.com/politics/23574…
So very proud of this wonderful achievement and the excellent practice which happens each and everyday at Hope Cottage Nursery. We can all ‘make a difference’ by making small changes & nurturing our children’s wonder for the natural world 🌎
Congratulations to all the children, families and staff at Hope Cottage on winning the ‘Making a difference in ELC’ at the Scottish Education Awards. 💫💜 #ScotEdAwards
@Mr_Minchin @Bruce_NextLevel @ChickenEgg42 Last sentence in full: The curriculum itself is problematic if many find it hard to interpret Es&Os into progressive, well-sequenced coverage. Creates attainment gaps through sheer lack of coverage. Some will be able to fill in the blanks, some won't. But they shouldn't have to.
@Mr_Minchin @Bruce_NextLevel @ChickenEgg42 Specificity of what needs taught shouldn't impact on how it is taught. Play and autonomous teacher contexts for learning are still in the game with a more specific curriculum. Currently, some can use what's there to teach what's needed, but many can't, which is problematic.
It was good to be discussing the Scottish curriculum with headteacher colleagues today. The biggest problem we have? A lack of specificity. What, specifically, should students be learning about, to do, and experiencing? We need to unpack content to make this clear to everyone.
Last week, the mum of one of our Y4 children died. I read this book to the rest of the year group today and it really supported our discussion about how he might be feeling and how we could all help. Thank you @JohnDougherty8 and @TDIllustration - it’s beautiful. ❤️💙🧡💚🌈
Exciting! My book is now available to pre-order in the UK. An optimistic, data-driven look at how we solve our environmental problems & build a sustainable future. It's the book I needed 10 years ago. You can pre-order here: amzn.to/3MdaOci @ChattoBooks @vintagebooks

In P1C, we want to be more independent, taking the responsibility of preparing our bags for school. So, we have made a checklist with all the items we need to bring every day. We have, reading books safe in our bags, water bottles, jackets and, of course, our brains. 🧠😜
If ‘dozens’ of Y6 children in your school are crying about SATs, I’d say you’ve got a much bigger problem than the difficulty of a reading paper.
