We absolutely loved our #TernGSD bike UNTIL we discovered a frame defect over a year ago. Defect acknowledged by Mark (#cyclomotion) & Daniel @ternbicycles Still waiting for a new frame promised 8mths+ ago, emails/calls ignored. Seeking legal advice. Customer service #shocking.

A fantastic series of short videos on BBCteach that every teacher should watch by ⁦⁦@DavidDidau⁩ covering topics like memory, cognitive load, desirable difficulties, learning myths & importance of keeping messages simple to name just a few! https://t.co/314pCpS7Ud

[Kate Jones @KateJones_teach]

I've co-authored an article with @dylanwiliam focusing on lethal mutations in education & how to avoid them.

An important read for schools/teachers that are embracing evidence based approaches.

Popped into school this week. I missed end of term for DofE exped. Lovely to find a couple of thank you gifts - a hand painted picture and a voucher for my local fish and chip shop. Best start to term ever? 🐟🍟

Latest blog! I feel so strongly that we have to embed terminology before we can expect pupils to use it in Science lessons whatever the ability or background of the student #teachingscienceasaforeignlanguage #keywords #science https://t.co/uCJemMCwVw

@doc_kristy Hi Kristy, I'd love to ask some questions regarding the STEM Spelling Bee you organised, would it be possible to send me a contact email? I think you can DM me on Twitter. Many thanks, Jo

@maternityCPD Keep smiling 😊

@maternityCPD I'll tell you next weekend. New jobs for me and teacher husband Tuesday, house move Wednesday, toddler and needy 9mth Covid baby (who wakes every 2hrs and is ready to go at 5.30am) start full time childcare Thursday 🤯 Seemed like a good idea in May...
