So my first 6 months as a ‘head of school’have been interesting….. OFSTED, the start of digital roll out, restructures, animals in schools, threat of strike action….. I really have done it all! But I wouldn’t have it any other way. #educationmatters #teachingandlearning

What’s the greatest classroom display you’ve ever created?

Making Christmas cards in primary school can sometimes be a last minute activity or may be disconnected from the rest of the curriculum.

Our Design Technology lead, @AbidaHamid11, has developed a curriculum for making cards which builds directly on what pupils already know about mechanisms from our DT curriculum.

We think it makes sense to use this opportunity to practise what pupils have already learned in DT and, of course, to make a card that would take pride of place on any mantelpiece!

If you are interested, here's a link to the curriculum... https://t.co/WHzIOmJESm

🧵 So, if you know me you’ll know I love an assembly banger! Here’s a list of tried and tested assembly ‘hall fillers’ for primary. Oldies but goodies and guaranteed to make you smile. Oh and plenty more where these came from 😁

Please can people not come to school now in the morning. I have to protect our children, our staff and our community.

Please for the protection of our children and staff.

[Flora @FloraSCooper]

@WhistleblowingT To develop professionally . Writing the other bits won’t favour anyone including you. Good luck! 🍀

[The Yellow Crayon @YellowCrayo1]

@WhistleblowingT Do not worry! The fact that you’re getting interviews is a real positive . You have nothing to lose in the interviews and should you not get a job- supply is always a fantastic option for September. Knowing that may help you relax !

[The Yellow Crayon @YellowCrayo1]

@claireorf Fantastic! Well done!

[The Yellow Crayon @YellowCrayo1]

@MissTLHughes This is my life! Sometimes I open it to pull out a chomp that I know is hiding in there though!

[The Yellow Crayon @YellowCrayo1]

@MrWithersAHT Absolutely!!!!

@SkewSmug This guy is a hero! I hope my neighbours are like him and willing to have a crack at stopping the spread of a raging fire. By all accounts , this hero did just that! So sad for those who lost their homes but thank goodness it was not moreThank goodness lives weren’t lost!#hero
