EYFS Lead at a large primary school in Southend-on-sea. Views are my own.

@KeepEYsUnique Has anybody found any useful research about how detrimental NELI would be? I’d like to find some to back up my argument of not doing this! X

I genuinely get heart palpitations thinking of administering these tests to 4 year olds in September. #putdowntheipad #EYFS #morethanascore #eyfsrebel

[Polly Shields @PollyShields01]

Brilliant piece in today’s @tes on the craziness of trying to measure and compare young children’s development with tests. Great to see the wisdom of @SwailesRuth and @KeepEYsUnique in there - yes to “putting down the iPad”!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

10 minutes in EYFS really can lift your soul.

@KeepEYsUnique Absolutely!! Well done everybody! We got this! X

[Whitefield Primary @WhitefieldPS]

Year 5 engrossed in our purposeful play session. Rich interactions and investigation arent just for eyfs. They said “We were testing tunnel systems underneath the replica of the mini Mersey side we tested until it worked but we made two. We worked as a team together.”

@MrsRich06881419 Wow!

[Ed Finch @MrEFinch]

I don't know who needs to hear this but...
I haven't sorted my classroom out yet.
I haven't covered any boards or done displays.
I haven't planned the term as I haven't met with year group partners yet.
I am an ok teacher, it will be ok.
Don't try to measure up to social media.

[Miss Stoneley #rightfromthestart @SarahStoneley]

@educationgovuk You have no clue how hard school leaders and teachers have been working over the summer preparing to go back. And now, Friday evening, bank holiday weekend and you drop this! Inept! 😡

[Mrs O 🙋‍♀️ FCCT @kateowbridge]

We all joked about it.
We didn’t really think after everything else that they’d really do it.
Again.
So we joked about it.

Poor deluded fools.

What’s worse than guidance on a Friday night?
Guidance on a Friday night of the bank holiday weekend before you go back to school.

I love this video and I couldn’t agree more! We need to focus on well-being and happiness for our whole school community - and stop weighing the pig! 🐷 Is school making you happy? #happiness #Wellbeing https://t.co/Zmy8iZPzCq

Got to be the worst politicians Zoom bookshelves ever.

Except what's that in the top, right hand corner, "The Twits".

School librarian has a sense of humour.

“Until children are socially and emotionally ready to learn, they are never going to retain academic knowledge.” This article is therefore important not just for EYFS and Year 1 but all year groups in September. #wellbeing #socialinteraction #recoverycurriculum

[Tes magazine @tes]

As we welcome EYFS pupils back to school, we must focus on their personal, social and emotional development – here's how, says @ClaireHeylin

So much money wasted. A 2021 label might have been cheaper. Unless SATs are not happening next year...#optimistic #morethanascore #onedownfourtogo
