@TteacherTeacher You definitely need to do your research or get someone (like me) who gives you all the info you need. Staying on-site makes life easier with little ones and the value resorts are the most Disney!

@Uni_Speaking @AliciaStella The icon herself!

@DeputyGrocott Unfortunately it's a DfE policy and not something we get a choice over.

@_MissieBee There are also many positives:
Conversations about life
Time with your partner when you're not just being parents
Trying new things together (like the day trips)
Finding out about them as people rather than as your dependents
Watching them grow and learn

[Emma Elliott @MrsElliott14]

@_MissieBee It's a different world and one of the biggest challenges is moving into a new role where you are secondary to friends and are no longer aware of all parts of their day. I go away with my boys individually on extreme day trips for some quality time together away from screens!

@Michael_Aiello Can't wait to see it in person in April!

[Emma Elliott @MrsElliott14]

@themagicofSEN Same! Fly out on the 22nd!

And ending the day with an inspiring session from @EarlyTrain about poetry being an opportunity for young people to find their voices and see themselves and their experiences.

[Emma Elliott @MrsElliott14]

Great session from Felicity Ferguson from the Writing for Pleasure Centre all about the processes of writing and being a writer-teacher.

[Emma Elliott @MrsElliott14]

Followed by a session about 'teaching for comprehension' rather than 'doing' comprehension with Wayne Tennant.

[Emma Elliott @MrsElliott14]

An inspiring day at our Primary English conference starting with a fantastic session from @ShareenAdvice.
