As promised, here's a link to a pastoral curriculum (year 10). Autumn term 1 and 2 fully resourced and booklets included. I have included the full year plan but can't share the rest as I'm using unifrog resources. Hope it's useful to someone!

At Glastonbury yesterday, a band called for “inshallah, from the river to the sea.” The crowd cheered. When I hear that phrase chanted with joy, I feel fear and - whoever you are - so should you.

Most people don’t understand what it means. But it’s been used for decades by those who want to erase Jews from where their language, faith & indigenous culture began. A place that was meant to offer refuge when the rest of the world shut its door.

I’ve spoken out against injustice & unbearable loss. I’ve made work about the ‘Nakba’ & the ongoing trauma of Palestinians.

But “from the river to the sea” doesn’t call for peace.

It calls for a world without Jews. You can stand for Palestinian rights without denying Jewish ones. You can oppose a government without wishing away a people. If your activism leaves no room for someone else’s safety, grief or history it’s not activism. It’s hate.

@OKR1995 @MrTs_NQTs @DeputyGrocott Try not to take it personally. Often this is not modelled at home. All we can do is reinforce expectations and model respectful behaviour.

@Positivteacha Hope you are feeling better today 🩷

@HughJRichards Thank you 🤗

@MrMHistorian @MrThorntonTeach Just pull the weakest books to flick through. Or maybe a cross section of abilities. You could also do it live in the lesson by walking around with a mini whiteboard

[Holly Brown @HollyTurts]

@MrMHistorian @MrThorntonTeach I do something similar but just on a ppt. Flick through a few books and make a list of areas to improve. Give time in class to fix.

Setting pupils by ability has a negative impact overall, according to research, but England sets pupils more than any other nation. @johncmorgan3 asks why

One for the history books! We’re presenting Horrible Histories with a BAFTA Special Award in recognition of the show’s extraordinary impact and the joy it’s brought people of all ages throughout the incredible fifteen years it has graced our screens.

BAFTA Young Presenter Jeriah Kibusi stopped by Henry VIII’s dressing room to deliver the good news ahead of the Horrible Histories team receiving the award at a special presentation next month – though that didn’t stop Henry practicing his acceptance speech! 👑
