#NewSchoolYearResolutions
1. Stay at school until 5/5.30 everyday (including Friday!) ⏰
2. Ensure I run at least three times Mon-Fri. 🏃🏻♀️
3. Continue to try new ideas in my lesson plans. 📝
This International @womensday, we’re celebrating all the remarkable women who make our club stronger 💜
As part of this year’s #GiveToGain campaign, we asked colleagues what they give to other women across the club to help them grow and succeed.
#IWD2026
Using @SPryke2’s character Big Ideas for AIC with Year 11 today. We’re becoming well versed in identifying key phrases in Big Ideas, exploding them for synonyms that can then be used in responses to show an argument through. They loved it ⭐️⭐️
@EnglishTASE@Ivesey2 I stapled my plastic folders to the wall today that they can help themselves to. I think they found it useful that they had autonomy over what they could revise, as opposed to a revision session led by a teacher.
Inspired by @EnglishTASE, we held our first ‘Revise and Socialise’ session tonight. So pleased with the numbers and it was so lovely to hear ‘are we looking at gender next?’ ‘Have you got this quote?’. Productivity goals 📈🙌🏼🤌🏼⭐️✅
Back on the Twitter hype after a spur on inspiration! Tried out structure strips with our Year 8s today which: clearly outlined our ‘core’ and ‘expert’ steps, had Key Vocabulary we wanted them to use and Literacy Codes. Trying to embed ‘Live Marking Looks for Literacy’! ✨✅✍🏻
Has anyone started a TikTok for revision strategies for their students? Any feedback or tips?! (I’m talking actually for our students, not to try and become TikTok famous) 😅 I want to model how to revise, the steps to take, especially using school wide strategies. @Team_English1
Can you #help please? My elderly parents have gone missing in #Venice They got separated & my dad (with Alzheimer’s) has both their phones. They didn’t arrive back at the pick up point & no one knows where they are. They’re called Bronwen and Stan. Please share!
This quote sums up better than I can what I feel about the situation in too many British schools and presents a call to arms for us about how to reverse these trends.
Does anyone have any strategies that have worked, either on department or whole school level, to encourage students (particularly boys) to just WRITE MORE in assessments, especially mock exams? Thanks in advance.
