#office_wear?

Today's outfit....

Walking into school past SLT felt awful... wonder who's judging me today?! And did I pass?!

Told yesterday I don't need to replace my whole wardrobe... but if they want a "conventional look" I probably do...

[JRBoyd @JRBoyd19]

HR told me yesterday that my outfit was not "office wear" in line with dress code... I asked for specifics, but got none... so....
"Would you wear this to an office/school?!" The thread! ;)

@drjamieparker It would be v helpful if PHE did some advertising with the new symptoms ,

Parents evening and a parent tells me her daughter talks about me /my lessons all the time, loves Spanish & always feels really encouraged 💚
Such amazing feedback!! 🤩

[JRBoyd @JRBoyd19]

@_MrLevick 100% agree!!!
Honestly kids should be seeing the expression of all of their teachers of both genders too! (So they see it takes all sorts!)
And while we're at it... how about designing uniforms based around COMFORT!! And making them affordable too?!
Just saying....

@RogersHistory Totally lost... can't help... sorry... already counting down to the summer hols and hoping not to screw things up in the meantime!!

[JRBoyd @JRBoyd19]

Is it bad that I'm already counting down the weeks to the summer holidays?!?
Seven. More. Weeks!
2 parents evenings and an NQT folder to find (I hate not having my own classroom!!) and fill up... 😬
BUT SEVEN WEEKS!!!!

[JRBoyd @JRBoyd19]

Wild swimming!

[JRBoyd @JRBoyd19]

So important!
This needs to be a real option for parents, regardless of postcode and privilege (1st knowing it's an option, 2nd having the wherewithal to stand up to the local authority to exercise their parental right)

Oh flip!
Facebook just suggested that a current year 9 student should be my friend! 🤔

[JRBoyd @JRBoyd19]

Just had my vaccine... flipping hate all needles, everything 😩

@MichaelRosenYes Didn’t you know Michael? The plan was to jump into our Superman outfit and reap the benefits of the worldwide pandemic, by continuing to trade whilst poor old Johnny Foreigner had shut down his economy to protect his citizens..More Cosplay.

More climbing today!!
Everyone pooped now...
Busy week coming up with a birthday, covid vaccination and year 10 parents evening... roll on half term!

[JRBoyd @JRBoyd19]

@CensoredHead Absolutely... could not have said it better...

NOPE!!

[JRBoyd @JRBoyd19]

@tes Yeah... nope!!
Not as a parent or a teacher... screw that....
We've almoat missed the boat to just give this generation an extra year of education... but it is still feasible and more workable than this!! Then maybe there would be time for the "fun" bits too...

[JRBoyd @JRBoyd19]

@ianwhite21 @MissKerr10 My school uses these... I was dubious when I first saw it but couldn't be a bigger fan now!! Simply can't imagine teaching any other way!! It's SOOO much easier to teach and learn like this!!

[JRBoyd @JRBoyd19]

Big bro belaying little bro!! ♥️♥️♥️
So proud!! 😍

Wearing their Mama-knitted climbing beanies!

I think we may have done too much this week though.... everyone is pooped...

[JRBoyd @JRBoyd19]

Could anything feel better than wild swimming in the rain!!

Making memories!

Saying goodbye to a place that's part of the family history...
