@rebeccapsych101 @WhistleblowingT That's a shame, we really struggled to find an A Level psych teacher this year too (comp, high school).

@rebeccapsych101 @WhistleblowingT Come back to the public sector!

@Katy_primary97 If you have mates with children, they are lifesavers, get a WhatsApp going! It's overwhelming at first, but you learn so quickly. The first few weeks there is no chance of routine, so don't put pressure on yourself, try and go with the flow.

@WhistleblowingT If you're leaving the sector and don't plan to return, in my experience heads have always accommodated a shorter notice period. I would talk to your head and explain the situation.

@bphillipsonMP @wesstreeting Making the job more manageable would be money better spent. That's why so many ECTs leave in the first couple of years.

21 days since Nadine Dorries vowed to resign as an MP 'with immediate effect'. Nadine Dorries is still an MP.

@mbaenglish1 @Team_English1 I think the idea is that they discuss the method in a sophisticated manner, in depth and detail and thinking about the whole text, rather than necessarily knowing it's an oxymoron or whatever.

@PrimaryCoHead I can totally understand why parents do this. It's the difference between having a family holiday and not having one. And spending quality time as a family is very important.

@WhistleblowingT Lot of people saying go with what you love, but you will defo find a job in history more easily than one in psychology, especially if you want to teach in secondary rather than FE
