Great to put my old HWB hat back on to support the Clacks Probationers Session today. Lovely bunch and having a former pupil from my probationary year in the session, now beginning her journey as a new teacher, made it even more
special! @ClacksEducation@emmamcfarland16
It was lovely to meet all of our probationers at our first Local Authority CLPL session this week. We shared lots of information about Clacks Academy, Glow and the GTCS profiles.

A big thank you to the HTs, Supporters and Coaches who joined us for our Practitioner Enquiry Showcase. Well done to all of the probationers who shared their enquiries and engaged in professional dialogue. @gtcs@ColinBruce1980@ClacksEducation@Lornshill
Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: Embedded. Practitioner enquiry is proper research. But what marks it out as different is how it is embedded in practice. This is research with the intent for professional learning and we mustn't forget that. /1

Thank you to @ClacksNqts for inviting me along to your Active Learning CLPL this evening and for the opportunity to present to your secondary NQTS. Lots of great discussion and collegiate working across the three secondaries ๐๐ป
Another great night presenting to @ClacksNqts on Active learning. Every year I come away from the session feeling motivated and reminded of why I love teaching so much. Great to meet new faces in our local authority and discuss lots of useful ideas and tips. ๐ซ
Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: curiosity. Curiosity is often given as a scientific disposition, as a core impetus for research, and so it is pleasing that it is also a key element of enquiry and therefore a facilitator for teachers as researchers/1

Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: power of photographs. In early years settings photos are a go to method for recording learning. Practitioners are primed to capture moments of progress and achievement. Can this skill be used in enquiry projects?/1

@ClacksNqts check this out.โฌ๏ธ Some useful hints and tips. Ultimately, ensure you have the key elements of a lesson included and it focuses on pupil learning, not just doing! @ClacksEducation
Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: Too much going on. Sometimes work is sooo busy, your brain is full and you have no capacity for more than getting by. Stuff might slide and not get done the way you'd like. That's been me this week. It happens /1
