@TsuiAllen I’ve had a similar email tonight. Pausing on the laptop to eat a pizza then back to it! You’ll have to try and get in touch with someone at ours! They’d love it!
Ofsted inspections using the new toolkit begin this week.
No more subject deep dives — just a broader, “shallow paddle” across the school.
Here’s what leaders need to know, and how to prepare:

@_MissieBee@TeacherTapp I’m in KS1 for the first time in ten years and I have no reuseable resources for continuous provision for writing area and phonics. It pains me but I’m having to laminate to try and reduce paper. However also am using reusable wipe pouches too.
Any schools in Worcestershire or surrounding areas that use @Suchmo83 approach to reading? Would love to see some implementation in action. We are improving our reading curriculum this year and in the beginning stages of implementation cycle atm!
Year 1 is very different to Year 3. Drawing self portraits today 2 children asked me to sharpen a purple pencil for colouring their face and another drew herself in a puppy mask 😆
If you've followed No Balls the Cricket Podcast since the time it was a ramshackle effort recorded by two players on their phones, this is a wonderful moment, to see Alex Hartley as broadcaster live on BBC 2, interviewing Hundred champion Kate Cross.

While most of England and Wales have received some welcome rain during July, a large swathe from the Welsh Marches to central southern England haven’t.
And it shows!

@DeputyGrocott Ah my husband is from Tavistock! Such a gorge part of the world. Tamar Trails is a nice place for a walk/cycle. The aquarium in Plymouth is good if you want to travel that far and have little people . Would recommend the gin tour too if not with little people!
@DeputyGrocott We have a whole day. For me this year it’s provision based maths and English (so I can get a feel of ability), some P4C, some art activities, making peg labels and story time.
