I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1
I’m not a Tweeter. I’m a scroller. But I really want to share what I’ve done since winning #RaceAcrossTheWorld. It’s something I’m really proud of.
A thread 🧵

@StarraEducation Mine has switched to a system called patches. Fill in a form which includes your availability to speak to/see someone. I’ve done it twice and both times heard back within 2 hours.
Publishers have submitted their books for consideration of the 2024 #NeroBookAwards, so let's celebrate our inaugural year one last time!

@IlkleyGazette It’s frustrating when your child (who does have a season ticket) is dependent on a reliable service from the frankly DIRE Northern to get to and from school each day. It would be good to hear what their plans are to improve services in Wharfedale for 2024.
@caitsteaching @MrTs_NQTs Novels: The Wives of Henry 8 by Dominic Sandford, Cue for Treason by Geoffrey Trease. DK Eyewitness The Tudors. Tony Ross versions of Shakespeare plays.
Hey, I've got a full class set (30 copies) of the amazing new book Dragon Force: Infinity’s Secret by @kevtsang and @kwebberwrites to give away for FREE. A whole class set, no catch.
To win, all you need to do is retweet.
@_MissieBee Yes, potato prints, finger painting, play doh (you can make your own or buy it). Right now plant bulbs (mini narcissus or iris or hyacinth) to keep in a dark place indoors- they will flower when you take your Christmas decorations down
@KTBerry77@ashleigh_pain Same here. I can’t remember any maths lessons (except perhaps some measuring) until secondary school. We seemed to just work our way through the cards
Ahead of National Poetry day tomorrow, i have a spare copy of The Final Year to give away. RT and follow to win. UK only, I'm afraid. I'll pick a winner next Weds 11th October.

@GeogMum If you want to go to galleries and museums, book ahead. For Anne Frank house or Rijksmuseum or Pergamonmuseum it seems to be about a week ahead. Also worth booking seats on your trains well in advance. We thought the DDR museum in Berlin was really good.
It's the summer holidays, which means I have two books to give away.
If you'd like to win a copy of The Art and Science of Teaching Primary Reading, all you have to do is **retweet** this tweet.
Best of luck!
