A simple, free thing the government can do to help schools:

Ban vapes from looking like highlighters and USB sticks.

My trip of a lifetime to Costa Rica has not started well. @AirFranceFR left our in Charles de Gaule. @gadventures did not turn up to collect us from the airport as promised.
A day on and the organisers @TourRadar have not responded to my messages on their 24/7 helpline. Fuming😡

@FrSimonTSSF Friedrich Nietzsche would have something to say here 🤔

👉 NEW BLOG

@ProfCoe on the mismatch between the evidence that professional development should be a top priority, and the priority (as measured by time) that it typically gets.

If you have a gap of a few minutes at the end of a Physics lesson, these songs may be useful! They are both Physics-related and can stimulate nice discussions🙂

@Hookean1 When I taught a lot of physics I used to often show brilliant @danny_macaskill videos from you tube. Excellent at end of term or talking points at the start of lessons. Another good place is the Slowmoguys on you tube as well.

Looking for your next Moments scenario for a Physics class? 🤣

The PM really does need to understand that he is now further damaging U.K. science by not immediately rejoining Horizon, presumably to placate some know-nothing fringe bloviators who know nothing about science, its value or how it’s conducted. As Lord Rees says below, it is baffling. Get on with it.

In the Science of Learning Programme, we explore what we know about learning in the brain 🧠

Here, @ProfKime talks with Hayley Vlach about the role of attention, working memory and long-term memory in learning.

@parkrunUK Big turn out at Cotsford Fields park run because Durham was cancelled due to the Miners' Gala. Super hot! Fab morning as always!

@ProfKime @DurhamGala Tubas in the wind - new breakaway indie band without Jack?

@doc_kristy Well done @doc_kristy
They're not really cross with the police or you - just venting out because of worry/frustration/embarrassment I expect.
Still inexcusable!

[Stuart Kime FCCT @ProfKime]

Such a warm welcome from the @OGATrust as @ProfCoe and I talked about the Great Teaching Toolkit in the context of teacher development and trust quality. Thanks to @martyneoliver for the invitation and the warm welcome. And that choir! Great teaching in action!

Not sure if these will be of use to you or your students but I’ve made QR codes for all of my exam question walkthrough playlists. Over 350 videos to date…

Hi folks. Thank you all for your wonderful words of encouragement. The filming went well & was effortless in terms of the actual process. I felt honoured to be included in the project. I can’t say more because it’s under wraps at the moment. I guess it’ll be aired in the winter.

@MoneySavingExp I've switched loads of times and made quite a lot of money out of it. I can no longer qualify in these banks as a new customer. Do you know which ones will give me money to switch back to them again as a previous customer @MoneySavingExp

[Pepe Meme @pepe_fgm]

His face makes it SO much worse. 🤣

This looks super fun for lessons on air pressure! The Space Elevator:
