Just managed to catch up on @epreachout 'The Applied Trauma Responsive Classroom Model' By Dr Jemma Carter @SuffolkPTS and I love it!
If you are a school, setting or interested in TiP then you need to watch it

Memory & Meaning. An old (2019) poster retweeted as now there is a welcome return to considering the central role of meaning-making in the learning process โย when it goes beyond lists.
Task completion is a poor proxy for learning; this is something I wished I'd known in my early years of teaching. Here is a one-pager I have created for @PepsMccrea, summarising his notion of Backwards Planning.
Here are my three latest one-pagers I created in collaboration with @MaryMyatt, @ChrisMoyse and @PepsMccrea.
I am currently working with a few amazing people to create some one-page summaries.

Is there anything that you only found as a result of the restrictions on face to face teaching that you will keep using when things are back to normal?

@ThtPedagogyGeek@TeachBKKchat Yes. I've only done this in KS5 too. I actually think the structure with reasonable/negotiated deadlines works better for the majority of KS3 and 4.
@TeachBKKchat Good question. I think there is more pressure in Years 11-13 for sure. It's just hard to tell what is normal and 'healthy' examination anxiety and what is problematic. Which is why I think voice and trusting students to manage their own learning are such powerful tools!
