📣 New research!

Teacher shortages affect schools across England and beyond. But what really drives people to enter and leave the profession?

For me there are some really key ways in which this can change the way that school and MAT leaders might think about their ‘offer’ in terms of their school or trust as a place to work.

And we’re off!

The call for evidence for the curriculum and assessment review is now open, and will be for 8 weeks.

As @BeckyFrancis7 says, this is the chance for a national conversation. Excited to hear the diverse views, insights & expertise of all.

@DrSamSims @APBmaths don’t know if you can help here. I might be wrong I just remember a DP we did a couple of years ago where you mentioned that you used Engelmann in maths dept curric/ped?

[Harriet Lowes-Belk @HarrietLowesB]

@C_Hendrick @CPB_English this is really interesting/ useful- will feature in the one pager I’ll send over later for sept CPD.

[Harriet Lowes-Belk @HarrietLowesB]
