Five caveats for the curriculum

One: there’s no need to have everything in place for us to get cracking.

Sometimes, there’s a reluctance to make a start until all the plans are written up.

@oracycommission @RealGeoffBarton The MAT I work for has had a huge whole MAT focus on oracy this academic year. We are part way through our project and would love to see what else we can tap into with the @oracycommission

@teacherhead A really interesting read so many things resonating and areas I hadn’t considered. Really helpful for any new Headteacher and Senior Leader.

I would be very grateful for any books, journals etc that could be recommended on curriculum design. I have read through a large proportion of the Ofsted research papers already. TIA 🙏

@LeeBraganza @9teaNinePercent @LeeBraganza this comment really tickled me.. my toddler is looking at me like I’ve lost the plot as he thinks I’m currently laughing at Bing falling off a skateboard 🛹

[The Part Time Assistant Head Teacher @ThePartTimeAHT]

A colleague from another school once said to me that I must be v. good and well respected to have been supported returning as an AHT PT 0.6, I took that as a compliment but it made me realise that being supported to balance family and my career was not the norm in other places.
