@michaelgove Ok I'll bite. The curriculum - narrow, overstuffed with content and not developmentally appropriate for a sizeable proportion of children. Resulting in unhappy children who've lost their love of learning and increased SEND.
Also covid, raac, underfunding, money to mat CEOs...

#ICYMI A new AI-assisted brain atlas that can help visualise the human brain in unprecedented detail has been developed by UCL researchers, in a major step forward for neuroscience and neuroimaging. @UCLIoN

Suicidal thoughts are more common than you’d imagine
BUT we are not our thoughts
Perhaps things have built up, you’re overwhelmed or can’t see how things can improve
Can you try to ‘stay safe’ for now?
https://t.co/pL7Hv3nvJ6 has ideas for a way through how you’re feeling ❤️

@PhilBeadle Hi Phil, sorry to hear this. Take things one minute, one hour at a time doing whatever supports you to stay. I know it's exhausting, but it will pass. Look after yourself even though you may not feel like it. Sleep if you can. Chat to anyone about mindless stuff. Take care x

Remembering the hidden history of disabled people in the Holocaust. The demonising of ‘useless eaters’, the propaganda to convince ordinary citizens that they were a drain on the resources of the State & the complicity of medics in euthanasia are lessons we should heed. Never more relevant. #HolocaustMemorialDay #Eugenics

@lifeatthenest My football mad daughter enjoyed this book at the same age

@EPHoughton With report writing and periods of time spent driving it is very sedentary.

@thosethatcan I dislike change, as it feels a hassle. Have managed to block most of the stressful stuff. It's not the same here though....

[Louise @WanderingPsych]

This was definitely worth my time this morning. If you work with children and families I would recommend. Not an easy listen, take care of yourself if you find echoes of your own experience in what Vic is saying.

Ok, not gonna lie, this almost broke me to do, but I did it. Standby for triggering conversation - I know it gave me nightmares for a few days afterward. Opening Pandora’s Box was a challenge but hopefully it helps at least one person 🙏

We have been speaking to a healthcare professional who has been supporting a couple with a new baby. They are originally from Iraq, speak Arabic, and are looking to speak to any other Arabic-speaking family with someone who has Down’s syndrome.
cont'd.....

@AndyKeay I always click on those 'psychologists say...' articles looking for vindication that 25 years in I am indeed a proper psychologist! Today I have been mainly coping with stressful news by playing various songs about us politics on repeat.(Other self help strategies are available)
