There is an update to the @EducEndowFoundn Pupil Premium guide, now in digital form, with lots of super input from @rs_network colleagues. Congratulations to @kirsten_mould in pulling it all together. I hope school and system leaders find it useful. https://t.co/5AUoH0IEUU

@clairelbills @KyrstieStubbs If we could stop getting EHCP consults in the summer holidays, that would help! 4 so far, 2 of which for children we don’t know! Makes it impossible to switch off as still have 15 day timescales. Do your LAs not do this?

@adamboxer1 @le0nardpoetry Haha! I read this earlier and thought I must make sure I don’t do the same and then promptly did the same!! 🙈

My new book, Primary Reading Simplified, is released this Monday (27th January).

Briefly, I'd like to explain why it exists, who I think will find it useful and where you can find it.

@MrHtheteacher This is what we’ve done this year too. Teachers doing additional informal transition sessions with new classes weekly between now and end year too. First time we’re trying that so will be interesting to see if it makes a difference to September settling.

Weakest grammar topics amongst Y6s so far according to @LbQorg’s analysis?

Pronouns for cohesion (y4)
Adverbials (y4)
Apostrophes for plural possession (y4)

Over half the Year 6s answered questions on the above topics incorrectly.

Here are copies of the 2016- 2023 maths SATs papers that I have completed badly to show lots of misconceptions and common mistakes. They might be useful over the next few weeks if you're in year 6! Importantly, they are not ALL wrong. https://t.co/bBPuVaeLF2
