Disappointed to see @McDonaldsUK @McDonalds have taken their only vegetarian option off the Happy Meal menu. So, vegetarian children cannot have a Happy Meal? A bit harsh!

Getting writing right through inclusive practice’. @boltonlearnopps

⭐️reference to The Writing Framework whilst remembering it is not statutory
⭐️understanding what gives children fire in their bellies to write
⭐️identifying how complex it is to teach children to write sentences - progression
⭐️understanding that editing; revision and proof reading all need to be taught before they can be applied

🎅🏻 making NO excuses for my Christmas books- teachers need to see them in advance! Ho, ho, ho! 🥳
