Giving my classroom gluesticks human names has been revolutionary. Does a student care if a glue stick goes missing? No! Do they care if DEREK the glue stick has not been returned? ABSOLUTELY. It’s like a manhunt until Derek has been returned to his rightful spot.

@Headteacherchat Don’t put any ceilings on kids. Teach to the higher level and pick up misconceptions fast with interventions

It will come! Have faith. It takes time in a new school even when you’re an experienced teacher. Each day as it comes. You’re doing great!

My child today received an ADHD diagnosis finally! I feel quite relieved, if I’m honest. I’m pleased knowing this even though I know it will affect him his whole life, but it doesn’t change who he is. It just makes him extraordinary 😊

81% of schools (including primary and secondary) have asbestos within their buildings. There are kids and teachers right now who have no idea that they are infected with asbestosis. This is an emergency. I agree with government decision but this needs dealing with too!

Schools are crumbling and for months Ministers have been dithering.

Staggering incompetence from a Conservative Party that is failing our children at every turn.

Excellent advice as always from Mrs Smith (@MrsSmithsaysit) over on FB 😊

The only time I enjoyed school was when I enjoyed the teacher. Even if I hated the subject, the teacher made it worthwhile. In education, relationships matter most.

The DFE is giving £2000 for schools to buy chess stuff?

I hope the payment is coming by cheque, mate.

Myself and my son both suffer and this is fantastic advice. Although, unfortunately, he is about to embark upon year 6 and handwriting is a necessity 🙄

To promote chess is nice. It’s well known to improve many skills like critical thinking, strategy etc. but when we have so many schools struggling to buy the basics, really why?!

♟️ Primary schools will be handed grants of up to £2,000 to buy chess sets and access training and teaching materials for the game, the government has announced

But less than 1 per cent of settings will benefit...

You can tell a lot about a school's culture by walking through a school. Observe the office staff, custodians & staff/faculty in the hall, their demeanor & interactions with other staff & students. You can't fake a dynamic school culture. It is palpable!
