What a great surprise and treat from 7LE today. The contents have been devoured and I look forward to using my face mask during the holidays. Some great tips too. Feel very privileged to have received my random act of kindness. Diolch @FirstGiveUK

October is Black History Month! We want our pupils to be ethically informed citizens ready to lead fulfilling lives as valued members of Welsh society. Over the next month we will be posting videos, quotes and pictures from important BAME figures in Welsh and British history!

Today marks 55 years since the Aberfan disaster, killing 116 children and 28 adults.

There has been positive feedback about the 'Improving Literacy in Secondary School' guidance report - & the importance of 'disciplinary literacy' (the subject specific elements of developing literacy). It would be great to hear from schools who have translated it into action.

[Kate Jones @KateJones_teach]

It can sometimes be better to have less questions to encourage students to recall more detail & allow for more meaningful feedback & reflection time.
