[Scott Allison @scoallison]

Many top players post images of cars, fashion etc. Youngsters try to copy. But why not try to copy what got players to the top? #practice

I've seen a fair few people suggest recently that the 'science of reading' can essentially be boiled down to two messages:

1. Explicitly teach kids to decode (i.e. systematic phonics).

2. Build knowledge.

But in many schools, these two things alone will fail.

71% of girls feel excluded by boys in primary school football.

A barrier that starts early.

It’s time to break it.

Apologies that the text is very pixelated but the original is available on request by DM. The first page of a document I've been meaning to create for a while now to set out the declarative, procedural and conditional knowledge statements in Computer Programming at Primary.

[Conor Heaven @ConorHeaven]

@TsuiAllen This is interesting as I was plotting out progression of skills for the NCCE curriculum and found it a little clunky to identify from the documents. We are an infant school using the year 1 and 2 materials. Happy to collaborate if you haven’t finished either of these years?

[Conor Heaven @ConorHeaven]

@Kieran_M_Ed Really excited to share how my experiences in senior leadership, as a HMI and as a school improvement partner (as well as teaching) have helped me grapple with curriculum wvalustion and adaptation: an important step in subject leadership!
