@m_chiles@LHS_HighSchool Morning @m_chiles this looks really interesting. Weβve worked on something similar and have a timetabled lesson we call βFoundation Learningβ. Are you open to a DM chat about it / a bit of idea sharing?

@Nikki__Sullivan Very thought provoking! We love the idea of a culture of error at our school and it was wonderful to hear it so conceptually articulated. Thank you! #ConnectEdLive
@TeacherBusy@Team_English1 Ours - 1 teacher for both quals. Mix of Lit and Lang over the 2 years.

Outcomes are strong.
If anyone is clearing out their stock cupboards and finds some extra copies of the play versions of Refugee Boy by @BZephaniah (adapted by @lemnsissay) or Noughts & Crosses by @malorieblackman (adapted by Dominic Cooke), please do tell me. I'd love to do an @eduswap! #TeamEnglish

Delighted to confirm our final keynote speaker, Shaun Brown, @ShaunB20
@TheDifferenceEd exists to improve the life-outcomes of the most vulnerable children and @ShaunB20 always profoundly challenges his listeners.
We canβt wait to be inspired!
@BenBainesSLE Hi Ben, this is really interesting. Iβm a local HoD and lead on assessment in school. Would it be OK if I DM you with some questions about it please?
@Strickomaster Swings and roundabouts, Sam. Sure, MA faces the issue of being pitched to the middle. Setting runs the risk of capping aspiration and perpetuating disadvantage. In both cases you need to guard against the risks, unless you have the silver bullet and are keeping it secret?
