Head of Geography at Epsom College in Malaysia, tweeting geotastic tweets, which don't necessarily represent my views and certainly not the school's.

It's out! The first #EpsomGeographic of this academic year can be found at https://t.co/WHmt6OOdnQ. #issue4 #happynewyear #neweditorialteam #nextgeneration

@propertECiM Good luck, Sean! Say "hi" to everybody else.

@johndennen I've just read Serpentine too @johndennen. It didn't take very long, unlike the wait for the next book.

@tjjteacher @NAEducation On one occasion, I ended up to writing to unsuccessful candidates after interview, as the school weren't going to. It's so important to set the right tone as part of developing school culture.

[Jon Barker @GeographyJB]

@tjjteacher @NAEducation Completely agree @tjjteacher. Over the years, I've had a number of different replies. One school near where we used to work never acknowledged my application (on two occasions). Some schools are impressive even upon rejection and it stays with you.

[Jon Barker @GeographyJB]

@tjjteacher Hit the nail on the head, Tim. Definitely what I look for in my leaders. With all the uncertainty at the moment, communication and being part of the team are crucial, although in fairness, so's everything else you've highlighted.

While our students have been at home, they've been busy producing the latest edition of Epsom Geographic, compiling articles and photos from across the College. Take a look at the latest issue, and any back issues for your MCO reading, at https://t.co/pjHonXmzyg.

@johndennen Have you finally caved and are now enjoying farfalle?

[Jon Barker @GeographyJB]

@johndennen @ChrisLloydTV After all this, it appears that you can find out what pasta you actually are! #yourpennepal https://t.co/erHxIq94S9

[Jon Barker @GeographyJB]

@johndennen Definitely not "wrong shape", I think you're just stuck with the ones you had at school and never moved on! You have a habit of that. #chapelseating

[Jon Barker @GeographyJB]

@johndennen @ChrisLloydTV I agree that they taste different (which shouldn't be true, I'm sure), but that's why I love a bowl of farfalle.

[Jon Barker @GeographyJB]

@johndennen @kevinmitchell50 And yet @johndennen did? Disappointing!

[Jon Barker @GeographyJB]

@johndennen When has that ever stopped you before?

@ECiM_Geo, how many times have we used this photo in a lesson? https://t.co/81xrzIbV1v

[Jon Barker @GeographyJB]

Thanks to @Langkawi_LADA for talking to the @EpsomCollegeMY geographers about #LangkawiGeopark this morning. #geographyfieldwork

[Jon Barker @GeographyJB]

@ECiM_Geo wasn't quite sure what to make of the visitor to our boat. #Langkawi #geographyfieldwork
