@RoyalMailHelp my item has been marked as delivered with a photo, despite me redirecting the delivery date. My parcel is nowhere to be seen. Tried website for contact details for help but had no luck. Can you help?

Small break from Twitter as I focused on joining a completely new school/trust this year. 5 months in post & now back online and in a Twitter hole. Looking forward to some new inspo! #pastoral #noneteachingHOY

@virginmedia @swinnybottom This doesn’t work!!!!

[Miss Coates @MissCoatesK]

@virginmedia @swinnybottom TS23 Blackburn Middlesbrough. Again! Not sure why you offer it when it never works.

[Miss Coates @MissCoatesK]

@liamgallagher Don’t worry Liam, just get another Knebworth on the cards that will make you feel better #cmon

Highlight of the week being compared to Trunchbull… I promise the comparison is unfair. This doesn’t happen 😂 #pastoral #year11

[Miss Coates @MissCoatesK]

@_MrLevick Oh no! Just started mine last week. This part of your thread concerns me as this is area I want to excel in the most! To be fair I feared this from our first conference!

@MrJJHollowedPE @lottepywell Cameron Parker - Dreams to Reality! Photo attached of his instagram more details on there. Unable to find his twitter! He has worked wonders over at UCA!

@Mister_Ambrose @ProudlyPastoral @PastoralOrg @Pastoral_N @PastoralLeaders Our thought process was to get the time back for missed learning. But strictly only reasons such as those mentioned that could have underlying reasons. It’s an independent study room to catch up. Also promotes revision
We have a separate detention system for disrupted learning.

[Miss Coates @MissCoatesK]

@Mister_Ambrose @ProudlyPastoral @PastoralOrg @Pastoral_N @PastoralLeaders Not a sanction as such, but in year 11 we use “revision room”
It’s timetabled as a 6th lesson at the end of the day, staffed by a teacher. Used for lateness, missed homework, coursework etc. We had a rise with late to school and this has worked.

THREAD: ‘I’m really struggling with this class.’ How should leaders respond when teachers take this brave step and ask for help? Here’s my thoughts:

@lottepywell Congratulations Charlotte. Sending you lots of love 💜

#HELPNEEDED We have all our sources for Christmas including toys and food but are seeing a highlight in families struggling for gas and electric.

I remember a campaign during COVID that allowed us to apply for PayPoint vouchers to give out. Anyone know if this is available now?

Today I got an early leave due to childcare issues. By 5pm I’d cleaned my house, cooked tea & was on my way to Tesco. I even bathed my smallest child tonight & had a hot coffee all before 7pm. The lady of leisure dream continues 🤪
