@JamesSlatman @FloraSCooper This isn’t the point though. The point is OFSTED isn’t fit for purpose and is causing damage to the system. I’ve previously worked in private sector. Yes shareholders make it pressured but I can assure you, it’s no where near as pressured as teaching!

@LexWatterson2 @teachwellall @Grrr22 @LexWatterson2 Teaching 690 students per week (secondary) - books need marking, prep for 27 different lessons per week. Assessment marking and tracking, data entry, I could go on… Friday afternoon off?! If it’s so easy, sign up! There’s a huge teacher shortage for a reason…

Dear 🇬🇧,

I’m not a member of any political party. I cannot vote here or run for public office. I’m just a doctor who is terribly worried about public health and can say unequivocally: your family is not safe with this govt running the NHS.

@TeachingAHT Rolling over and accepting the appalling state of education is failing our students and our own children! A pay rise that isn’t fully funded is harmful to our students. So many fighting for better for our kids - you should too!

@MrsKellyWood_ @SwailesRuth I have never been side by side coached but I can honestly say that if someone did this to me in a lesson, I would be out the door with my coat! It is patronising and undermining. The poor uptake and retention in the profession is reflected in poor professional development models

@rob_kelsall @NAHTnews @ASCL_UK @NEUnion @NASUWT Starting to really worry about the government's priorities. We're chucking money at weapons, the shelves are empty, people doing the most important jobs are paid the least. It feels like chaos.

[Sarah @MissMusicalbell]

@murphys1st @L1nda66 @EISUnion @bbclaurak Afraid I do not agree and there is significant evidence to show students graduating and going straight into teaching but then 1/3 quit after the first 5 years. A worrying statistic.

[Sarah @MissMusicalbell]

@ratmanbeef @SocialistNHS The private sector bearing the brunt?? Aldi till worker £13.18 per hour. Trained paramedic to degree level with £30k debt in student loan £13.15 per hour…. Fact we need trained nhs staff. Fact they can’t recruit with a wage that does not justify the skill set.

@murphys1st @L1nda66 @EISUnion @bbclaurak What’s your evidence base? I would say you are highly misinformed here.

[Sarah @MissMusicalbell]

@MarinaRobb @WADmaths @FakeHeadteacher Technically, we can legally have time off to visit the GP. You can’t plan these things. We can also get our hair cut at weekend. I don’t feel this is an issue with our profession. Same everywhere I think.

@MissD_Y6 Teacher here who used to work in a bank - in banking the hours were very long for low pay. Pressure of high sales targets and the worry of forced overtime if one of the tills didn’t balance at closing. I also worked 3 Saturdays out of four. Still hard work just different

@Mrz__Black Wonderful!! Xxx

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

If everyone who has been grateful for NHS staff over the last two years followed and retweeted, we would reach a million in no time.

It will only take a few seconds, and your support would really mean a lot to a huge number of people who continue to fight Covid-19.

@mini_lebowski They actually sell these still - I bought my youngest one for her first birthday and she knew what it was for 🥰

[Sarah @MissMusicalbell]

@TUIUK Thanks Heather, this would make sense - it’s an absolute shame the advisers on the app aren’t saying this - I don’t like dealing with things publicly. They are still saying that she will have to sit alone due to forms etc - not great, we will be following this up.

[Sarah @MissMusicalbell]

Flying back with @TUIUK tomorrow and they have sat our 3 year old alone on the plane. Contacted them and they’ve said there’s nothing they can do. @TUIUK seriously forcing parents to leave their child unattended on a flight.... Sort this ASAP please @TUIUK
