Phillipson’s clarity in messaging is getting very very good.
There’s a fair bit of negativity online about line managers in schools, but for the quiet majority of teachers their line manager IS a source of positive support. This is good news!
As people roll onto higher mortgages, this is going to keep getting worse. Cf most discretionary spend.
This week’s @TwoHeadsPod podcast is out now, featuring the brilliant @miss_mcinerney Listen here: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/two…
Could we build planning and marking (which I’m going to use as umbrella terms as getting ready for the next lesson and doing the necessary following the last one) into a total number of hours? What would the numbers look like, would it be better? Thoughts all welcome.

It will be interesting to see if there’s any discernible effect on the National Reference Tests. Also have @ofqual said how they are going to do comparable outcomes? Could we have grade deflation?!
I cannot stress highly enough to teachers applying for jobs that giving specific examples of your experience/practice lifts applications above those that just refer to applying policies or adapting learning. Everyone can say they do stuff, but showing it is often more effective.
@JamesTheo @bennewmark Why do they do this? Why has it not evolved. It’s not something they hear kids in other schools do or get from popular culture. It’s absolutely bizarre.

@JamesTheo @bennewmark Slightly different, but what fascinates me is how young children in assembly respond when the adult says good morning. The monotone chant hasn’t evolved since I was at primary school 50+ years ago /…
Last week we asked 9,000 teachers on @TeacherTapp for their thoughts on the Prime Minister's plan for all young people to study maths to 18. We used AI to look over the responses, but they can mainly be summarised as... 🧵
Ark founder Paul Marshall stands down as chair of trustees The case highlighted what seemed like an interesting grey area re trustee conduct (unlike teachers, they don’t have to adhere to national standards)
