@belinda_bristol @NickGibbUK @Smithre5 @EricaStanfordMP Thank you for putting on a great conference. The work you are doing is fantastic.

@MarsdenRoad @EricaStanfordMP What an honour to welcome a delegation of New Zealand principals, led by the NZ Minister of Education, to MRPS who visited to observe our learning culture. Conversations like these remind us that great education is a global conversation.

Another reminder from the brilliant @HollyLanePhD 👇

Not all “evidence” is created equal.

If an intervention can’t point to randomized control trials, systematic reviews, or meta-analyses…it’s not strong evidence.

Parents & educators:
➡️ Demand quality
➡️ Ask for the research
➡️ Watch for snake oil
