A deputy headteacher with a passion for children’s literature. Working in North Yorkshire @applegarthprim. On insta as well @mrsehopkin. Views are my own.
Today was such an inspiring day - the first @LettersSounds local event. A room full of reader leaders in the gorgeous @7stories coming together to share ideas and build connections - all with the shared goal of raising standards for children across the North East.
What a BRILLIANT day with our friends at @EarlyExcellence! A wonderful day for our early years leads to get together, hear about and SEE exceptional practice - as well as reflect on their own wonderful settings, staff and children. Just beautiful! 🙏🏽@CambraiSchool for hosting! 🧡
#NewProfilePic…and account name change. Last week I said my final goodbyes to @ApplegarthPrim as Deputy Headteacher ahead of starting my new role in September @LingfieldTrust as their Primary English School Improvment Advisor. So, it’s goodbye @readingdeputy & hello @mrsehopkin

🖊️ 📝 What a way to finish the week…being brought some examples of completed Y6 non-chronological reports. These are the first whole pieces of writing our children have completed after their first ever @grammarsaurus Place Value of Punctuation and Grammar unit. 1/2
I have just been having a look through our @Seesaw English folders and have come across some fantastic sentences work in Y2 using the @Grammarsaurus1 . The impact following the PVGP units has had on pupils understanding and sentence construction is amazing! #primarywriting
Date 30 of 30: Thank you Northallerton for a fab day!! ❤️ We’re done!!! 😭❤️ Thanks to @readingdeputy & @ApplegarthPrim for having me. Next stop - Las Vegas ✈️ for Katy Perry’s final two performances of PLAY + meet & greet! 😭❤️
@Grammarsaurus1@ApplegarthPrim Mitch, we can't thank you enough! It was such an incredible session and everyone was buzzing afterwards. It was brilliant to see how we can revolutionise our approach to teaching writing 🤯100% recommend this to all schools and all teachers ✨ Enjoy Katy Perry!
A fantastic session with Mitch from @Grammarsaurus1 today. It makes me so excited to start the new academic year. What a different the correct teaching of the place value of grammar is going to make to our writers #pvpg#primarywriting#writingcurriculum
