@iExelEduTrust Most deserving!
Fantastic teacher and role model.

“…vocabulary-rich children arrive at school with a hidden cognitive advantage ... They have heard “ridiculous” and “extraordinary” and “investigation” at the dinner table, in bedtime stories, in the overheard conversations of articulate adults. Their minds have been silently sketching the spellings of hundreds of words they have never read..

“Children from language-poor environments arrive without those skeletons…

“It is a gap in prediction. And it compounds: the child who reads more easily reads more, hears more words in the context of text, forms more skeletons, and reads still more easily. The child who struggles reads less, encounters fewer new words, forms fewer skeletons, and falls further behind.”

Michaela pupils project their voices, speak in full sentences, make confident eye contact, deliberately practise talking to visitors. All of this is taught. Every interaction develops their social skills. Every adult plays a part in this. Every child benefits. It’s normal.

The best way to increase the number of your students getting a grade 4 is by improving your school. Better behaviour, better curriculum, better teaching.

Worrying about bell curves and stuff is a red herring. Better schools. That's the answer.

DfE data today shows school suspensions have risen to almost a million, what is your solution to this problem?

Cue a few days of: more support, more money, earlier intervention, more innovative curriculums, better teaching, less punitive behaviour policies, more nurture, being more trauma informed, more TAs, more alternative provisions etc.

But:

More Responsibility
More Accountability
More Respect
Minimum expectations

None of these cost anything but would make the biggest difference IMO.

Exploring ecology in action! Year 10 students conducted field work at Bowling Park, studying plant abundance and distribution. They discovered how biotic and abiotic factors shape the environment. 🌿📊 #Ecology #Fieldwork

Behaviour always comes first. You cannot do anything until behaviour is sorted, and fundamentally the main driver of that change is leadership.

Centralised systems, robust escalatory processes, consistent strategies and unwavering support. All necessary conditions.

This useful framework for teaching writing is for primary schools (but it will be of interest to colleagues in secondary schools & more)
